Carrie Underwood Shows Off Her 6′ 1″ Prize
Carrie Underwood walked away the big winner during the 2010 CMT Music Awards when she took home the "buckle" for CMT Performance of the Year and Video of the Year. But even before she accepted her first award, Carrie says she already had one prize, fiance Mike Fisher, by her side.
"It's really great having him there because no matter what happens, I go home a winner," Carrie said backstage at the awards. "I have the biggest prize -- it's the guy sitting next to me. Win or lose, I know he's proud of me, and that's really nice. But, of course, it's nice to share the good times with him, too, and to have him here for anything."
The two will tie the knot this year, but the singer admits she's still a bit uncertain how her wedding will compare to many celebrity weddings. "We're still working on everything," she said. "I haven't been to too many weddings, so I really don't have that much to compare it to. I guess the unique thing will be me and Mike. We've never been married before, so it will be like anybody else's wedding."
Earlier in the week, the glowing couple were given a bridal shower during the City of Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge as the country music community welcomed Mike to the family. Besides the "shower," Carrie says that everybody has been extremely kind to her main squeeze, making him feel right at home.
"Everybody has been so nice and welcomed him," she said. "He was walking by Brad Paisley earlier, and he's like, 'Let's go hang out.' I said, 'I leave on Saturday to go back on the road.' He's like, 'We don't need her. Let's go.' Everybody's been super nice. Not that I expected anything different because I know what kind of people I'm around."
Carrie will indeed be on the road Saturday, June 12, taking her Play On tour to Birmingham, Ala.
