American Idol Fantasia Barrino being sued for $25,000


Fantasia Barrino
Fantasia Barrino, American Idol winner from 2004, had a very overwhelming past few days. She announced during a charity concert in Florida that she is pregnant. Her manager has been denying the pregnancy rumors, and claimed the weight gain was for a movie role.

Now a bank is suing her for more than $25,000 for unnamed reasons. It has been reported she owes the bank $25,057.02 plus 10% interest from back in 2009.

This is not the first time Fantasia has been in financial trouble. The Grammy Award winner nearly lost her home in a foreclosure. She saved the home by making a payment just in time.

She purchased the home in 2007 for $1.3 million dollars. The property is a 6-bed, 6,000-sq. ft. mansion. Her relative claimed this was all a misunderstanding because Fantasia was not able to make the court hearing. At that time, she was accused of defaulting on $58,000 of the loan.

    There are so many FLAWS and ERRORS in this article, that it’s alarming. Fantasia was NOT pregnant when her manager said this in early February. The baby is due the end of December. Do the math. She was indeed, gaining weight in February for a movie role.

    Fantasia’s home WAS NOT IN FORECLOSURE. There are many corrective articles on the net explaining this, which you either ignored or are simply ignorant of, in which case, you have no business running a news blog. It was actually the lawyer who did not make the court hearing, who Fantasia promptly fired. She also fired the money handler who was supposed to have paid off said loan.

    Realize this current supposed suit for $25,000 is LESS THAN ONE PERCENT of her annual income. That is a drop in the bucket and not really “financial trouble”. It’s actually not worth mentioning and hardly “news”.

    You sure DON”T know what you’re doing.
