LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - "American Idol" champion Carrie Underwood's Grammy victories on Sunday underscored the growing impact of the hit TV talent search on U.S. pop culture.

Underwood, who won season four of the Fox network's blockbuster singing competition, took home Grammys for best female country vocal performance and best new artist.

She joined a growing list of "Idol" winners to earn recognition in the race for the music industry's highest honors.

"This is absolutely unbelievable," Underwood said in accepting the prize for best new artist. She went on to thank God, "American Idol" creator Simon Fuller and various others, including record mogul Clive Davis and the "Idol" show itself.

"I owe everything to 'American Idol'," said Underwood, who also performed the Eagles' hit "Desperado" and "San Antonio Rose" during the show.
