Carrie Underwood Stuns In A Throwback Snap On Instagram
The throwback picture in question shows a young Carrie Underwood smiling at the camera with a flip phone pressed to her ear, presumably calling a loved one to share the great news: She’d received her golden ticket to Hollywood, and would be auditioning for American Idol!
