Carrie Underwood: The Ultimate Idol For America
FirstCovers

Let's be honest here: Carrie Underwood is the definition of perfection. She has the looks, the attitude, and the voice of an angel. She is one that your daughters can look up to without worry of a sexualized tabloid or scandal about her. Carrie is the ULTIMATE American Idol (see what I did there?).

1. She is the most well known Idol winner

I know what you're thinking, "what about Kelly Clarkson?!" Although Clarkson was the first American Idol winner in history, Underwood outshines her, especially in Underwood's most recent "Storyteller" tour. In awards alone, Carrie has landed over 142 awards, including more than 6 Grammy awards. Underwood has also earned more than 50 million dollars more than Clarkson in the past decade. Even Ryan Seacrest chose Carrie Underwood as the most successful American Idol winner over Kelly Clarkson! If that isn't saying something,

then I'm not sure what is.

2. She is a role model for the whole family

Carrie knows how to keep it classy. She rocks every single one of her outfits without any distasteful showings. She doesn't need to "throw that ass in a circle" at her concerts to get the crowds going. She can make fans get up and dance to songs without a single cuss word or derogatory comment. Similar with her interviews, she is poised and keeps her family-friendly reputation well-maintained. Carrie also isn't just a superstar, she's also a mother and loving wife. She incorporates her values into all of her music, especially highlighting on her family and faith.

3. Her music isn't all "f**k b*****s, get money"

We all know the type of music I'm talking about here. Music is starting to lose it's intended purpose of telling stories, sending messages, and connecting emotionally to listeners with today's pop and rap music. Carrie Underwood has effortlessly brought the indended purpose back. Carrie's music tells of heart break, love, lust, family, growing up, faith, revenge, and more. In fact, her 2016 tour is even called "Storyteller" because of her love to tell stories through music and finds importance in it. It's so hard to find artists who make music with meaning anymore. There are few things in life that are more powerful than music that can really connect with people, especially when they are going through either really great or really terrible situations. Tugging at the heart strings through music is just too rare in this day and age to not get recognition.

4. She is physically perfect and you can't deny it

I mean, just LOOK. She is literally all of the goals.

Carrie Underwood is a confident leader, not only in the country music industry, but in all aspects of life. While most other artists mold their personality and music to fit the wants of their fans, she isn't afraid to sing from the heart and about what she believes in. She is a woman for your daughters to grow up and strive to be like.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
