No, it’s Carrie Underwood. Not only is Carrie more famous she has an estimated net worth of $250 million while Kelly has only gotten to $45 million. Both woman are certainly in the top 5 of all time Idol winners.

[Asker]

Carrie Underwood is unknown outside of US though.

Kelly had many more hits too

[Asker]

Kelly is global

[ecfresh]

Hmm, I see two replies but GaG blocked them both.

[Asker]

How come?

[Tyrael]

I genuinely don't know who that is. I've also never watched American Idol so that may be why.

[pigoat]

I don't pay attention to the rest of em

So i can't say but she has her own talk show and that's pretty cool

Also she's my favorite

Carrie Underwood?

[Asker]

She is unknown outside of US and Canada

[Liam_Hayden]

Carrie has sold 2.5 million worldwide than Kelly.

[Liam_Hayden]

2.5 million more

[Asker]

@Liam_Hayden no chance

Carrie has no certs outside of US

She sold more albums than Kelly in the US, but Clarlson destroys her WW

Country doesn't sell outside of US

How are you measuring success? Underwood gets a minimum of $500,000 per concert, Clarkson gets $150,000 minimum.

[pigoat]

She Seems to be measuring their success by how well they are known worldwide

If you look at the other comments she responded to

[Asker]

Can you prove this is how much they get?

I measure them by their success wordwide

[Asker]

Not just that...

Album sales
Hit songs
Net worth

Need more facts?

[Asker]

Looool

Those are not actual figures of their albums. They don't even make sense.

And country charts are irrelevant.
It's billboard hot 100 that counts

[Asker]

Just look at their certs,

Carrie has US and Canada
Kelly has the world

[Asker]

Even if Carrie sells more albums in US by a large margin, Kelly outsells her.

[OlderAndWiser]

Well, don't let the facts get in the way of believing what you want to believe!

[Asker]

Lmao

[OlderAndWiser]

Rabid fan.
