Carrie Underwood's Technicolor Dream Dress Is Grammys Showstopper

Country crooner Carrie Underwood's grey dress turned into an animated light show during her performance of "Two Black Cadillacs" at the 55th Grammy Awards on Sunday.

Animated patterns such as falling rose petals and soaring butterflies projected onto the dress, at times matching the animations on the digital screens behind her.

"They can do a lot of amazing things with projectors these days," Underwood told reporters backstage (see video below). "I said I should take that home where we can watch movies on it. … You wanna watch movies on my dress?"

Here's Underwood describing her dress backstage:

The ball gown, which wasn't animated during her first song (see image four in gallery above), lit up Twitter with people reacting hilariously to the fascinating sight:

Fun fact! Carrie Underwood's hair gets bigger with every country wig she snatches. Her animated dress was powered by her haters. #GRAMMYs— Alex Goldschmidt (@alexandergold) February 11, 2013

Underwood won Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance for "Blown Away," the first song she performed Sunday night.
