Carrie Underwood may have already picked her winner of "American Idol" but she isn't saying who it will be.

Interviewed at the Billboard Music Awards Sunday, the country music star didn't name names but she has an idea about who should win tonight's "American Idol" finale. She will also attend the televised finale.

"I’ll be there. I think it's a good top two. I think both of them will have a lot of commercial success on the radio. And I'm excited to see them. They're both so different.

"I think both have an equal chance. But a girl hasn’t won in a long time. I don’t know. We'll see."

Men with guitars have won the reality TV singing competition for the last several years.

But don't look for the season four "American Idol" winner to sing on the show.

"No, I'll just be there," she told "Access Hollywood" reporter Shaun Robinson.

"That's my home. I get to go and they just let me come and be a part of it."

"Can't wait for the @AmericanIdol finale tonight!" she tweeted Wednesday. "It's going to be great! I have 2 dates...my hubby, and my mommy!"

On the finale, the female finalists will pay tribute to the late Donna Summer while the boys will honor the late Robin Gibb with the songs of the Bee Gees, according to hollywoodreporter.com.

A group performance will feature '70s icons Gloria Gaynor, Thelma Houston and Gladys Knight with Nelly Furtado, Sheila E., Jennifer Holliday and the female finalists.

Later in the show, Broadway, "Glee" star and Broken Arrow native Kristin Chenoweth will sing "Enough is Enough" with finalist Jessica Sanchez.

Also performing tonight will be Oklahoma's Reba McEntire singing with Skylar Laine, John Fogerty dueting with Phillip Phillips and Fantasia mixing it up with second runner-up Joshua Ledet.

Rihanna and Aerosmith will also take the stage along with Latin performers Wisin and Yendel with judge Jennifer Lopez and Jordin Sparks will team up with Holly Cavanagh for one number.
