The pretty Oklahoma blonde picked up a $1 million record contract after beating rocker BO Bice at the Kodak Theater - and then was given an extra treat - keys to her very own MarquisJet private jet.
The speechless country singer was part of Idol history - the fourth season of the talent show brought in 500 million votes. Underwood ended the show by performing “Inside Your Heaven”, which will be her first single release on 14 June (05), but she was overcome she screamed, “Thank you… thank you America” as she attempted to calm her nerves and complete the song.
The singer joins Ruben Studdard, Kelly Clarkson and Fantasia as American Idol winners.
Idol judge Simon Cowell was criticised for helping to swing the vote away from favourite Bice on Tuesday night’s (24may05) live final sing-off, when he told Underwood, “I think you’ve done enough to win this competition.”
