Carrie Underwood has made a huge transformation since her 2005 American Idol win. In our opinion, she is one of the most elegant and beautiful country singers around, but that was then and this is now.  Fast forward two years to November 2009.

What a difference two years can make.  Last night at the CMA Awards, Underwood actually got skunked….not winning a single award for the first time in a very long time.  New kid on the block, and country music’s newest sweetheart is Taylor Swift, who won four awards last night.  Check out photos and video here.

Check out 14 more pictures of Carrie Underwood, taken in the last couple of years.  We think you will agree – she is gorgeous! Be sure to click on each thumbnail photo for a better view.
