CARRIE UNDERWOOD - UNDERWOOD: 'I'M NOT STUPID'

Singer CARRIE UNDERWOOD faces an uphill battle to prove she isn't a dumb blonde because people assume she lacks intelligence. The American Idol star hates her reputation, based on the fact she's a blonde country singer from Oklahoma. She says, "It bugs me... People don't give us Oklahomans credit. We don't ride around in covered wagons. We have indoor plumbing. We're smart, good people. "I won't say I'm business savvy, exactly, but I have common sense."
