CMA 2010 Nominations

November 10th 2010 is looking to be another great night for the Supreme Miss American Idol, Season Four winner Carrie Underwood. This is the night that she will join Brad Paisley for the third year in a row as the hosts for the CMA Awards. In addition to showing off her wonderful personality for the entire night, we are sure to see her in a whole new assortment of beautiful fashions with each different moment on stage. And, of course, she will add another outstanding live television performance to the list of ones she's already done. With her recent marriage to hockey player Mike Fisher, I predict that she will sing the lovely and appropriate Mama's Song, which could be the next single from her amazing album Play On now that the current single, Undo It, is ending its reign as the undisputed song of the summer.

While being the queen of the night with her hosting duties and performance, Carrie is in the running to add some more awards to her impressive collection. She is once again nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year and her Album, Play On, is up for Album of the Year.

Fantasia's BIG Debut

The Season Three Miss American Idol winner, Fantasia, makes a big debut on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart at #1 with her album Back To Me selling 117,000 copies in the first week.

This is her first #1 album on this chart as her previous album Free Yourself peaked at #2 and her self-titled Fantasia peaked at #3.

On the Billboard 200 Albums chart this is good enough for Back To Me to debut at #2 which makes this her highest charting album yet on this comprehensive chart.

Free Yourself peaked at #8 in 2004 and Fantasia peaked at #19 in 2006.

Over on the R&B/Hip Hop songs chart, Bittersweet is at a new peak position of #7 while it is at #74 on the Billboard HOT 100 singles chart.
