It seems country singer Carrie Underwood is the all-time most popular“American Idol” winner according to a poll released today by AOL Television. The poll, conducted May 9-16, received more than 1.3 million votes. Carrie, the 2005 “American Idol” winner who went on to win Grammy, American Music, Billboard and Country Music Association awards, was voted the most popular “Idol” by a whopping 54 percent of those taking part. Kelly Clarkson, who was the original “Idol” back in 2002, finished second with 26 percent of votes. Congrats to Carrie Underwood on an outstanding career thus far — but we expect more great thing in the future!

Other “Idol” wannabes didn’t fair so well — Jason Castro was voted the most overrated contestant this season, according to the poll. With the most watched television show reaching its climax this week, finalists David Archuleta, 17, and David Cook, 25, the poll shows that these two are running neck and neck in terms of best performances of the seventh season. David A.’s rendering of John Lennon’s “Imagine” in February was rated best of the season by 35 percent of those taking part, with David C.’s rock version of the Michael Jackson hit “Billie Jean” back in March also getting 35 percent.
