Back in 2005, Carrie Underwood was the winner of American Idol’s 4th Season.

That achievement launched the career of the multiple Grammy-winning country superstar.

Now Underwood is set to return to familiar territory, as she is replacing Katy Perry as a judge on the upcoming season of American Idol.

In an Instagram video announcing the news, young clips of Underwood were featured from her time on the show.

Megan Wolflick, Idol showrunner and executive producer said the new season of American Idol will kick off in the spring of 2025.

“Carrie Underwood is the first American Idol alum ever to join the judging panel. Her global superstar status as the most successful Idol winner to date makes her a perfect fit for the show.”
