Carrie Underwood won a Billboard Music Award Sunday night (May 23rd) for Top Christian Album for her Christmas collection, My Gift.
When Carrie released My Gift last year, she said she had always wanted to make a Christmas album. “I love these songs. I love singing about Jesus. I love Christmas as a whole, as a time of year,” she says. “So, I have always wanted to make an album like this, so I did. (laughs) I always wanted to, so we did it.”
