Underwood, 25, was formally inducted into the cast of the long-running music show on Saturday (10May08), when she was presented with an induction award - a 14-inch bronze replica of an Opry mic stand - from fellow Opry member Garth Brooks. She also sang a duet with country star Vince Gill. Fighting back tears, she told the crowd: "This really seems like a great family to be part of. I promise I'll do everything I possibly can to not make you regret it." Since winning American Idol in 2005, Underwood has scored six consecutive number ones on the U.S. country singles chart and sold 7 million copies of her debut album Some Hearts.
