Carrie Underwood recently wrapped a three-week reign at #1 on the country charts with “Wasted,” and now her previous multi-week country chart-topper, “Before He Cheats,” showcases her massive cross-format appeal as it cracks the Top 10 on the Billboard Mainstream Top 40 Radio Airplay chart this week at #9.

Already a Top 10 at Hot AC, “Before He Cheats” notched a whopping five weeks as country’s #1 single in late ’06, scoring a People’s Choice Award for Favorite Country Song and earning multiple trophies at the 2007 CMT Music Awards. Now in rotation at MTV, the video for “Before He Cheats” was a recent “First Look” on TRL and became the first country video ever to air on the show, and the first country video added to MTV since Shania Twain’s “Man, I Feel Like a Woman” in 1999. It’s also red hot at VH1, where it’s the #4 most-played video and #4 on the viewer-voted VSpot Top 20 Video Countdown.
