Underwood concludes Vegas residency
Performing 72 shows, Underwood was not only the first and longest-running, resident headliner at Resorts World Theatre, but the longest-running Las Vegas residency of any solo female country music artist. Underwood performed to more than 300,000 fans.
"REFLECTION has truly been one of the standout moments of my performing career thus far," said Underwood. "It is a production I am so very proud of and have had so much fun performing over the course of this residency these past 3-plus years. I've loved being in Las Vegas where we've welcomed fans from all over the world who have come to see us. It's been so special to reflect on the first 20 years of this career I am so grateful for and have loved being on stage with my band and all the performers every night. Thank you AEG Presents, Resorts World, and Las Vegas for making my first residency such an amazing experience." Throughout her touring career, Underwood has arranged to donate a portion of ticket sales to a worthy cause or organization. $1 from each ticket sold for REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency is being donated to Make-A-Wish America, which grants life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. A highlight of Underwood's closing night performance included Carrie's reunion with former Make-A-Wish child Noel Miller, who Underwood met through the charity organization in 2008 at age 12. Noel, now 28 years old, joined Carrie onstage to sing her #1 hit, "All-American Girl," a popular moment in the show that she had revived for REFLECTION after first introducing it to audiences in her Carnival Ride Tour in 2008. Underwood has been involved with the organization as a WishMaker for nearly 20 years, granting wishes since the beginning of her recording career. Earlier that evening, Underwood presented Make-A-Wish with a check for $236,844 on behalf of all the fans who have attended REFLECTION over the past few years. The donation comes at a fitting time for the organization as April is World Wish Month and 2025 is the 45th anniversary of Make-A-Wish.

CD reviews for Carrie Underwood
Carrie Underwood's gospel music album may not be traditional in the sense that she sings these songs the same way she heard them as a child growing up. However, on the traditional/modern country music spectrum, this album leans closer to traditional country music than just about anything Underwood's recorded. Underwood always sings well, no matter how her songs are arranged, but it's a true treat to hear that voice without much of the big production that usually accompanies it. ...
It makes logical sense that Carrie Underwood, arguably mainstream country music's best pure vocalist, would make a Christmas album. And make no mistake about it, this is a 'Christmas' album, as opposed to a 'holiday' release. These 11 tracks are nearly all spiritual in nature. Therefore, you won't hear about Santa, reindeer or even toys under the tree.
The only truly secular track is "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," which is not – by a long ...
Carrie Underwood's life was reading straight from the storybooks: one of the few American Idol Winners with ongoing success; a professional athlete for a husband; a beautiful baby boy. The string of great fortune turned sharply in 2017, when Underwood began the unfathomable experience of three consecutive lost pregnancies. This was atop a frightening fall at her home that ended with her face in nearly 50 stitches. Sharing these moments with her fans makes the beamingly-beautiful singer ...
