Carri e Underwood performs her first concert in the U.K. Thursday night at London's Royal Albert Hall. The show is sold out, and she's set to perform in Australia the following week.

"We've always talked about being able to take my music and country music outside of the U.S.," Carrie says.  "It just seemed like a really great time."

Carrie was relieved to find out she'll be performing for a packed house in London.  She says, "It's comforting and it's exciting to think that maybe I could take it all there and see what happens."

Carrie's wraps up her Australian tour July 2 with a show at the Sydney Opera House. She launches her Blown Away tour in the U.S. on September 14 in New Hampshire.
