Carrie and Luke are getting along quite well on American Idol! They're bonding over country music.

This was one big country music party!

Let's just say, it's not her favorite thing about the gig.

"You guys just gave me the biggest gift," Underwood said during the emotional moment.

"I'm never happy tearing down another woman," Moroney says.

It's no surprise that she's wealthy ... but just HOW wealthy might shock you!

Right after she watched herself on the premiere of 'American Idol,' one of Underwood's beloved chickens came down with a potentially deadly illness.

Underwood was a country girl, through and through -- so why didn't she choose a mainstream country hit?

They're making some serious money in Season 23.

Carrie Underwood is the most successful contestant to come out of 'American Idol.'

Producers are counting on her "middle-America appeal."

Their facial expressions seem to say they were impressed.
