Carrie Underwood is one of the world's biggest country stars, but she has revealed that she was more interested in grunge rock as a teen. Speaking with spinner.com the Nashville star opened up about the influences of her earlier days.

"I grew up listening to '80s glam hair metal. And then, when I got older in the '90s, the whole grunge thing was huge and I was totally into it. I was all about Pearl Jam, all about Alice in Chains and Nirvana and all of that stuff," she explained in the interview.

Now, however, she adds that her tastes have gotten more diverse:

"I feel like now people don't listen to one genre of music. They don't listen to one specific kind of artist. My iPod is rannn-dom," she says. "I would guess everybody else's is, too. It's OK to listen to random things back to back, and I definitely feel like I'm influenced by that."
