Kelly Clarkson will sing the National Anthem before Game 2 of the NBA Finals...
Kelly is up for three Teen Choice Awards: Single (Since U Been Gone), Album (Breakaway) and Female Artist. Voting ends 8/4. Results on 8/16 on FOX...
Carrie Underwood will be singing on CMT's "100 Greatest Duets" which airs in September...
Word over on the AI boards is that Carrie's been sick lately and that she's had to cancel some appearances. I think the pace and pressure in the last few weeks of AI competition gets to a lot of contestants. It seems to be common for many of them to get sick either toward the end of a season or immediately afterward.
I'm skeptical about this next bit of info from the AI boards, but will pass it along anyway. Supposedly, Bo's single broke onto the Billboard charts at #60 and Carrie's at #63. The reason I'm skeptical is that Billboard uses actual sales numbers from Nielsen's Soundscan as well as HDD's raw final numbers that come out each Tuesday.
The reason I can't verify this info either way is beause you need to be a Billboard subscriber to see their complete charts. You can only see the top half of their charts on their public website.
