Fantasia’s House Auctioned Off Today!!
Posted by Bossip Staff
Fantasia Barrino is losing her million dollar home while this article is being written up about her, and reports are saying she is in denial:
CHARLOTTE, NC – Fantasia Barrino – who faces the loss of her $1.3 million home here in a debtor’s auction set for noon Monday – is apparently ignoring the looming legal threat, officials told The Post yesterday. The inspirational “American Idol” winner owes a Florida credit company $65,000 – money she borrowed in 2006 to pay back taxes she owed the IRS. The singer made a $10,000 payment in August 2007. But she never paid the rest, so the company won the right in court last month to auction off her house for the balance. Mecklenburg County sheriff’s deputies, who are responsible for enforcing civil court orders, have tried at least a dozen times to reach Barrino at the home and by phone, said Sgt. J.W. England, a supervisor of civil judgments. A deputy spoke a couple of times to Barrino’s mother, but never reached the star, who appears to be ignoring attempts to save her house, officials said. “We try very hard and give the defendant every opportunity to pay,” England said yesterday. Over the course of about a year, Barrino has never responded to court documents, and no lawyer ever appeared in court to represent her, said Larry Goldman, a Charlotte attorney representing the credit company, Broward Energy Management. “I certainly don’t want anyone to lose their house,” Goldman said. “But as far as I’m concerned, we have a judgment.” Barrino, 24, has made no payments and filed no documents since The Post reported a court-ordered lien on the property in Charlotte’s upscale Piper Glen neighborhood last month. Goldman said he never heard from Barrino’s representatives until after the judge’s order. He said he has since spoken twice with reps who haven’t offered to resolve the debt but said they’d get back in touch before next Monday. “My client has continuously asked me why they won’t just pay it,” Goldman said. “I just don’t have an answer.” Barrino’s attorney, Gary Greenberg declined to comment yesterday.
“It’s my practice not to talk about client matters,” he said. Barrino’s agent, Erin Culley, referred questions to the singer’s publicist but was unable to provide contact information for that person.
When will we as a people learn that you must be conservative to preserve your wealth for the future? We’re praying for you Tasia.

DAMN THOSE LIPS COULD COME IN HANDY…
Why would someone buy a home in CHARLOTTE in excess of 1 million dollars, when you can buy something superstar sufficient way under $500k…Some of these artist need to stick wit Jew accountant/financial advisors in their corners…
SHE CUTE, BUT NOT CUTER THAN ME…
@ Hannibal
I bet those braces wont come in handy though…
Folks living beyond their means. Sad.
that’s bad,I just believe when you start out in your career don’t try to do everything big,like purchase a 1.3 million dollar home,she should have started out small,until all her finances were taken care of,maybe she will get together again this year,I LUV FANTASIA
co-sign Redd. Fiscal Responsibility people!
I guess I would feel more sorry for her, but she has another home…most folks losing their homes have just that one….
1.3 in NC. Damm she must have owned a whole city.
Charlotte, NC has quite a few affluent neighborhoods. The one where Tasia’s home is has MANY, MANY people whose earnings rate them from upper middle class and beyond. (You’d really be surprised to know who some of her neighbors are!!)
Besides the fact that she has ANOTHER home, I have yet to see (foreclosures are public information) where her home is up for closure!
Now, it might be a slip of the eye on my part yet at the same time, I understood that it’s NOT the mortgage payments she’s behind on, it’s the property taxes!!
It would be nice if BOSSIP reported accurate information.
Besides–if she does lose this one, it’s not like she doesn’t have several more!
PLUS—if she has a sound tax preparer she can write it off as a loss!
Shit–at the end of the day, Tasia won’t be in the streets!! The girl has more places to rest her head!!!
Real talk!!!
She looks ewwwwwww….
Hello, upper numbers….
I don’t think she made a bad decision in purchasing real estate. Every-single-investor who’s worth his weight in gold will tell you that real estate is one of the most sound investments you can make.
Just my opinion.
NIKKI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She did NOT put them tights on with that shirt about her waist… fantasia, fantasia.
good thing she can sing.
wow
I JUST KNOW, FANTASIA’S HAD ME ONCE OR TWICE
Where are Youngs Dro’s stacks whne you need them?
Ole girl needs to start fucking for tracks to get her house back!
1) You’d think in Hollywood they would have better cameras to zoom in and out with because this pic makes Tasia look wide and fat.
2) This is definitely a “no-class” outfit. You can take ‘em out the hood, but you cant take the hood out of ‘em.
3) She could have worn something to cover up those dark nipples showing through the shirt.
And @ Herpes…just a correction…there is no “had” with herpes. It’s “have”…..cuz its the gift that keeps on giving! lol
I’m curiuos to know why you chose that screenname. It’s kinda funny to me though….and I’m sure you knew it would cause some jokes up here in Bossip world. lol
lol…Fantasia looks a mess as always. lol.
ummm to Herpes-you look a complete mess!!! haha hahaha
“Black and ugly as eva, howeva….”
Hi Nikki, Bye Nikki!
BRB
@Nique:
Okay…I had to laugh!!! LMAO
…..”I stay Gucci down to the socks/rings and watch filled with rocks”……CLASSIC Biggie!
sorry to hear that..this recession is NO JOKE
BOSSIP, THAT LINK ON THIS TREAD “SHE’S IN DENIAL” GAVE ME A VIRUS!!!!! YOU BASTARDS PROBABLY DID THAT ON PURPOSE CAUSE I PUT YALL HIDDEN RACIST ASSES ON BLAST YESTERDAY IN THAT CALI COP SHOOTING POST!!! KEEP ON HATING HATERS!!! I KNOW A FEW PEOPLE VERY HANDY WITH COMPUTERS (IF YOU GET MY DRIFT..) KEEP TRYIN ME.
she could have avoided that… get your self a nice condo or town house and pay it out right!!! Why buy a 1.3 million dollar hm and you career is not concrete???
BOSSIP WROTE:
“It is very sad that our artist make these people rich but can’t seem to keep the wealth, or get a grasp on it themselves.”
_______________________________________
Fantasia has made plenty of money between her music, Broadway and her life story movie she played in. She either bought more house than she could afford or squandered away the income she had. Either way, we have to accept responsibility for our own financial messes. We have too many examples of how easily money can come and go. A white person will take a million dollars, invest it somewhere sensible (like real estate, NOT cars which depreciate) and go sit they asses down somewhere. Black people will have a car lot sitting in their driveway (all losing value) and 10 people mooching off them in the house.
Fantasia did right to buy the house, but then you have to make PAYING FOR IT your priority over everything else–even taking care of family. If you cannot take care of yourself and secure your future, you are no good to ANYONE. Fantasia has to take care of herself FIRST. After she is stable, then she can help out the fam.
education matters,…. I mean this girl is very talented but wtf… you have made some few dollars get yourself somebody who will guide you or go back to college…. whats wrong with these people, rihanna too i heard she is damn broke, wycliff?? house was also foreclosed, tlc girl, whats wrong with these people I dont beleive in recession only.. something must be wrong in their heads
sad…but nice tits though…if you like them ‘i got kids’ titties
For real? she needs to clean up those ghetto mess outfits that she walks around smiling all extra hard. she destroyed her own career with that ghetto mess.
LOL!!! @ htown!!!
She is losing her home to a finacial company she owes. Dumb on her ass. She really didn’t owe the company much. She made that much on Broadway, I hope.
I thought biggie stayed “Coogie down to the socks?”
Y’all actin like ya’ll don’t know that Biggie was my 7th baby daddy!!!!!!!!
Maybe I’ll be in the movie–you, know the EXTRA, extra?
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!
@Nique
lol…Fantasia looks a mess as always. lol.
ummm to Herpes-you look a complete mess!!! haha hahaha

@1TruDiva:
You are SOOOOOO stoopid!!!! lol I think she put it up for shock factor.
You can say what you will, may or might–you can’t away the fact that the girl can sing her ass off!
And BOSSIP–even I have seen more recent photos of Tasia.
I guess it would’ve been too much like right to use a more recent one, right?
Ya’ll bishes GOTS to be white owned and black run!
SMMFH!!!!!!!
So…I read that her house is paid off…so to lose it to a 60K loan….c’mon Tasia!!!
Raquel–
LMAO!!!! Why my sister always say “coochie” on that part?
I can’t WAIT to see the movie, though! I told y’all yesterday–I’m going to find my black and white lumberjack jacket with the matching hat. I think I’ll rock Oshie’s bamboo earrings (At least two pair) along with my black catsuit and Timbs!

Yea, let me in ya team.. I need to fit in somewhere, they mean to me on this site, its like you gotta have blondee hair and blue eyes to be down, shit…
These are trying times and I wish Fantasia all the best for 2009!+ May this year be better for her!
Superstar homes do NOT cost under 1 million here in Charlotte. Her home is not even in Charlotte. Tasia purchasing real estate was a good move, but it is just the ecomony right now. If she bought it for 1.3 million, how much could she have made off of it later…damned economy.
Sup Bishez?
That sucks
Man she’s ugly
LOL @ Diva…..you a trip! I had to at least act like I’m doing something productive here at work!
I can spare about 10 minutes….I’m here until 7 anyways tonight. Overtime like a mug! 12 hours days for 3 straight weeks! I aint playin….I likes my comma in check….especially when its mo money, mo money, mo money!!!
Hi Lauren–
How’s the little one?

Be the fuck nice!
I thought we left the hate in ‘08?
Lol!!!!!!!
@Herpes:
See? I wasnt even trying to play you, but….its now Congo!!
It’s called EDUCATION big body gyal….to know the shit that I DIDNT want to catch. This is what smart people do. Read up on shit, not just opening ya legs.
fantasia looks like a ghetto leopard… or should i say a better version of HERPES gravatar… okay im out
*it’s on now
You look like Mary from the movie Congo.
*beating ya chest*
Me, Mary….:)
I can drill you all day, but its too easy love.
Carry on!
WHY did she have to make that big ass purchase then when shyt gets thick NOT to respond. Girl wake up it is so 2008 not to handle your finances chile’!!
She was just in my neck of the woods on new years singing at a show. She should of been handling up biz for the roof over her and her daughter’s head!!!
IT ALL GOES TO SHOW YOU THAT WHEN YOU MAKE IT BIG YOU FEEL YOU NEED TO GO OUT AND PURCHASE THESE EXPENSIVE HOMES, FANTASIA I LOVE YOU BUT YOU HAVE NOT BEEN IN THE GAME THAT LONG TO BE BUYING MILLION DOLLAR HOMES. NOW YOU CANT AFFORD IT PLEASE YOU COULD OF PURCHASED A HOME FOR 200,000 AND BEEN JUST AS COMFORTABLE PEOPLE PLEASE STOP LIVING BEYOND YOUR MEANS.
tasia my girl but she look like her cooch might stank. i feel bad for her about the house tho. keyshia cole is next if she don’t stop spending all her damn money on her ghetto ass family. i don’t care how much she makes she spends like crazy.
@Raquel
You can’t drill me, cuz I look 10 times better than you, slut!
PLUS—if she has a sound tax preparer she can write it off as a loss!
***************************************************
Like stated she is behind on PROPERTY TAXES NOT MORTGAGE PAYMENTS
She will write this off at a loss, and it’s smart because she paid 1.3 million for the home I PROMISE you she wouldn’ve gotten that had she sold it…she did this purposely people instead of selling the home at a loss have it auctioned off…and when ur a millionaire u aint worrried about ya credit score…can we say 20% on EVERYTHING!!
@ Redd Tony
You mean like that fool BERNIE MADOFF? Because there were a whole lot of people who sunk ALL their money into he scheme.
Look where they all are now – BROKE!
No – I say take some damn accounting courses for your damn self and BE IN CONTROL OF YOUR OWN DAMN MONEY!
@Herpes:
I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY doubt that babygirl. Trust that. But I know people as ugly as you need to have self-esteem also…..so go for yours!
@ Meme
I don’t own a home – but you sure make it sound o-so easy. From what I understand from people I know who DO own their own homes – PROPERTY TAXES ARE NOT THAT HIGH.
She would have to have NOT paid those taxes for awhile before they start talking about taking the house.
And even if she does move and get a house somewhere else – WOULDN’T SHE HAVE TO PAY TAXES ON THAT HOUSE, TOO?!
I just don’t get some peoples logic. Why spend $1.3MM on a house JUST TO LET SOMEBODY ELSE TAKE IT FROM YOU!!!!
That was just a dumb-ass BAMA move on her part!
1) Your black with yellow weave?? You probably dont have any hair; you look like your shit is nappier that a mug. Calling that bird snatch a ponytail. lol
2) Your eyebrows seem to blend in with that rotted looking frontal view you call a face.
3) You look mad in the pic…because I’m sure you know you’re ugly too. Even gunrocker’s gravie looks better than your REAL pic. Aint that a shame?
4) Actually, you look like the Beast from Beauty and the Beast.
5) Are you upset that you really have herpes yourself? You should also add to your signature..”including me”.
6) WAIT A MINUTE….*looking at pic again*….Are you Biggie reincarnated?? You seriously look like dude.
Cheese-eggs-and welchs grape lookin’ broad……

I dont know if you’ve ever seen Jill Scott’s CD cover (or the inside) but it looks just like her pic when she was little.
ROTFLMAO @ #2!
Why ohhhhhhhhhh why?????????????
***********DEAD******************
@1TruDiva:
LOL
I dont know why she even started with me. I wasnt trying to play her, I was just adding on to her statement. Obviously, the broad cant comprehend sarcasm.
Maybe the yellow weave is reflecting all the smarts away from her brain? lol
1TruDiva Long Ass Name — you’re all up in this thread. Are you Fantasia’s biggest fan or biggest hater?
I think Herpes is someone that’s a regular. She just changed up to get a rise.
That picture.
That face!
**shudders**
Encyclopedia Brown–
I have mixed emotions about Tasia. I do like her as an artist. I think she’ll grow if she loses some people in her camp. I honestly don’t think they have her best interest at heart. I think she’ll have longevity if she makes changes that should’ve been made a long time ago.
BTW–The name is not much longer than yours. It’s the caption behind it that makes it seem that way!
Why are you acting like I stay in a thread ON TOPIC??
I’m one of many that really doesn’t give a shit WHAT the topic is about.
I KNOW you know that after all this time!
Lol!!!!!!!!!!
Is the house paid off? If so, she is going to take a major hit by letting it be auctioned. If not how they just gonna sell the house out from under the mortgage company like that?
@Herpes- you can join our team, but you have to pay your dues. Our resident pitt bull just died, so you can take his place, and be on the lookout for imposters, and watch our backs for fake posters. Grrrrrrrr, Grrrrrrr, Grrrrrr.
@ 1TruDiva
Hey, Diva! How are you?
@ Roe Ski Love
You still got your European Girlfriend? I think you missed my response to your comment the other night. I said that I would “take your European Girl” ’cause I’m the ‘tongue-wagger’.
LMFAO!!!
LOL @ Roe ski Love:
You aint never lied! Should we tie her up to a tree or let her roam freely?
@TruDiva:
Oh, I meant to ask if that was your little girl in that picture before but I got sidetracked when I heard Herpes rattling her cage. I told her dumb ass that when she’s hungry she needs to play nice or she gets the rotten bananas. LOL
Anyway….the girl is adorable. She reminds me of Raven when she was on the Cosby show way back in the day. Olivia!
@ Mrs. Rance
That’s the same thing I said, ‘who buys a house just so somebody else can come take it.’ That’s just not smart thinking. Even if she goes and buys another house – she’ll have to pay property taxes on that, too.
She should put the pants on the auction block as well
as long as she has jewish lawyers she’ll be ok
So, the Channel 7 News Brief just reported:
A man who donated his kidney to his wife now wants it back since they’re getting a divorce!
I’m just sitting here SMDH on this one!
@ Jewish Baby
I have two words for you: BERNIE MADOFF!!! Your OWN people can no longer even be trusted anymore, Luv.
Okay!
Someone once told me don’t count all of your chickens before they are hatched. You have to save wisely, and spend wisley. Don’t anticipate funds that have not yet arrived. Don’t over spend, and make sound business decisions for your future as well as your child.
Well, we can tell why Fantasia wanted to REALLY get in the game by her irresponsible actions. Especially since she was hooting and hollering about being a single mom, and living poor and not having certain things.
It seems she is just another black girl lost, just on a larger “hollywood” scale. I mean, the chick can sing her ass off…but what does she do??? Surpass all the good men that are probably in her reach to fuck with a oogly ass wanna-be thug. I swear….like I said…you cant take the hood out of ‘em!
She betta ask Will Smith or Oprah for a loan
Wait a minute… that doesnt make any sense. How can you auction off someones $1.3 million home for a debt of £65,000? That makes no sense, I don’t believe this story. Surely they would take something closer to the value of the debt?!
I’m back!
What I miss?
GOT DAMN! That is one ugly chick!!!!!!!!
@Raquel26….
Buwahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaaa!!!!!! @ “Cheese-eggs-and welchs grape lookin’ broad……”
Oh shit some body pick me up off tha floor… LOL Damn… You can’t be talkin all greasy when you look like a cross between Project Pat and Magilla Gorilla… HA!
On another note… I don’t know if we got all the facts about this… I think she probably borrowed money against the house in order to pay BACK TAXES from her earnings as a music artist.
Ya see many NEW artist go through that. It’s usually a big sum of money that the IRS will come after you for after you have made a certain amount of money. Most new artist don’t have good people in their corner to prevent this..
Same thing happened to Young Buck… but Fitty bailed him out instead of getting a loan off a house…
I’m just speculating though… How could we know the facts…?
Wait a minute… that doesnt make any sense. How can you auction off someones $1.3 million home for a debt of £65,000? That makes no sense, I don’t believe this story. Surely they would take something closer to the value of the debt?!
They can because that is what is OWED! The mortgage company wants the money due on the mortgage not what the house is worth. If theshe is $65.000 behind in mortgage payments than that is what is owed on the mortgage. The bottom line here is this:PAY YOUR FUKKING BILLS IN TIME!!!!
@Missblaze I learned along time ago that the tongue is mightier than the sword (get my drift) I don’t mess with europeans, never did, never will. I love my angry black sisters, their in the struggle just like me.
@Raquel 26 Instead of tying up Herpes, lets have her mate with Black Beetlejuice and then when they have hybrids we can sell them on the internet as Guard Dogs who can talk. We’ll be rich in no time. Feeding them wont cost much, we’ll just take them to the local nuclear waste plant.

Damn Raquel, you went in on a sista.. Shit I am finally at a loss for words
Herpes’ gravie was actually a pic of a chick on HGM (Hot Ghetto Mess) website. I saw it a few weeks ago. Trust me, he/she probably wouldn’t have posted that pic if that were really them in the pic. LMAO at the gesture though!
About Fantasia, I don’t wish the loss of a home on anyone, but people really need to start living within their budgets. I am a fan of Fantasia’s music, but her career hasn’t solidified enough for her to make long term ridiculous decisions. You live and learn I guess. Anyhow, don’t buy an A-list home with a B-list budget. I wish her the best, but my truest sympathy goes out to the families who actually work really hard and still can’t make ends meet in an average house. She had enough money for a nice house under a million, but she had to have it.
thats a damn shame … wait till i get my money right .. bitches is stupid aint no way lawd have mercy please young people get your credit together and pay ur monthly bills … chile
@ Herpes
LMBAO @ THAT GRAVIE THOUGH!!! CLEVER!!!
@Raquel 26 None of us good men are checking for Fantasia- We’d rather play with ourselves.
Fuck that million dollar home she fine then mufucka wit a million dollar body and billion dollar lips
yall really tripping on here isd yall dont think she got $65,000 to pay the bill…maybe its alot more to the story or she dont want the house..they got another house down there too
To clear up the Fantasia house matter- The company is making threats to her and putting her on blast in order to make her pay. I doubt very much if they can take something of that value for such a small debt. Although it does depend on state laws. They can however enter a judgement against her, if and when she does sell any home in that state, they can then be first in line to collect. A good lawyer can handle this with no problem. She should slow down her spending during these tight times.
yall really trippin gon this site if yall dont think she got $65,000 to pay the bill….yal better worry bout yall rent yall aint payed by the 5th lol
@Lady D:
And i knew this MAN!! LOL Part of me thought that it wasnt real because I dont think that a female would put that ugly ass pic up KNOWING she would get drilled on. But hey….its still fun to talk about it!
For now..she is *drum roll*
Sasquash
@Roe Ski Love………LMAO!!!!!!!!!!
Black Beetlejuice!! And that mug oogly too!
Sad story.
TruDiva,
If someone has a lien on your house (which they have when you owe them, regardless of the reason), they can petition the courts to have that house sold to settle the debt. It is a process and takes a while, but what happens is the house is sold (usually by auction) and everyone/company with a lien on the house get their payments.
It is sometimes difficult to “find” houses that are on the auction blocks for these liens. Going to the auction might not provide more details either, since they will give you an address and not necessarily an owner’s name for the house.
I am sure these facts are correct and she probably owes someone on this house. Bossip wouldn’t print such false information (they could be sued).
You can loose your house for taxes or quite frankly a maintenance fee. Some gated communities have annual fees that you HAVE to pay to live in those communities, this is NOT your mortgage or taxes, but you can loose your house just the same. If someone does work on your house and you rfeuse to pay them, (regardless of the amount), they can place a lien against your house, based on the amount owed.
Again, this person would have to produce documents to the court attesting to the fact that they are owed the money, have tried to collect the money and you are not paying them.
Hope that clears it up.
I luv Fantasia. Its sad she had to lose her house. When people become rich over night, they think they can just spend money 24/7. She should have started out small and worked her way up. I hope she is working on a new album.
@ Zappy-
Thanks, that helps!
You did mention something else important as well. You mentioned fees and/or association dues. A LOT of people do not realize when they purchase homes that there are sometimes additional fees and or homeowners association dues that go along with the purchase (depending on your home’s location). Before I purchased my first home, I actually took some classes to familiarize myself with the process. Even then, I did not realzie that I had to pay association dues. It wasn’t until I got to the bank and was going over some things with the loan officers, lawyers, etc. It was a valuable lesson that I was well prepared for in purchasing my second home.
PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW THESE THINGS BECAUSE YOU MAY BE ON TIME WITH YOUR MORTGAGE PAYMENTS AND A LIEN CAN STILL BE PLACED ON YOUR HOME IF THE OTHER PAYMENTS ARE NOT CURRENT!!!!!
Again, Thanks!!
EVEN IF she loses this home, she will NOT BE HOMELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is only one of several homes Fantasia has. It may be a costly lesson but the girl definitely is NOT homeless!
Another work day has come to an end.
To my BOSSIP peeps, hold it down for me ’cause I’m outta here!
Be safe!!!
**1TruDiva has left the building**
I hope this is not true. She’s a very talented. i wish her the best.
TruDiva,
Believe it or not, in the (very) fine print of what you sign, those maintenance fees can increase without first notifying you. So you might sign up for a house with fees that are $400 when you move in and $2000 two years later. The homeowners’ association just have to show that the fees are reasonable in light of related expenses (e.g. more security is now needed, etc.).
You are correct though that when you buy a house you don’t factor those costs in.
The other thing people don’t realise is that stars get gigs and when those gigs end (concerts, broadway, etc.) they are basically unemployed until the next gig, so they have to be smart about how they spend their money.
Tasia looking right in them tarzan pants
She should auction off those pants. It is a hot mess and very tacky indeed.
I can do some things with them lips Young Dro a lucky dude fo sho
This is a damn shame
Lashadi SAID…
“Wait a minute… that doesnt make any sense. How can you auction off someones $1.3 million home for a debt of £65,000? That makes no sense…”
______________________________________________
It makes sense from the lender’s point of view, but not for the borrower to allow this to happen. Sometimes, when you take out loans, lenders require what is called “collateral” (basically something of value they can take from you if you do not repay the loan). Fantasia may have used her house as collateral, and when she did not repay the money, the lender had the right to take the property to get their money back. Some people are saying this is happening because of taxes. Let’s get this straight, too, even if your house is PAID IN FULL, you must still pay property taxes every year. Even if your tax bill is only $6000 per year on a $1 million dollar house, if you fail to pay the government the taxes due, they CAN and they DO take houses away. They usually try to get the money first, but generally speaking, the gov’t doesn’t play, and we already know this.
Regardless, to allow a property to be taken for that amount of money screams that she is broke. Period. There are few financial benefits to letting this happen — even if she can take it as a “loss.” The real “loss” is losing any equity she might have had in the house for a measily $60+K bill. The house probably had multiple mortgages and no equity.
Celebs, if you need some common sense financial counseling…hit me up at blackmoneyguru@gmail.com.
Since these conversations are not happening in too many homes, maybe blogs like Bossip are serving a hidden purpose to educate our youth when things like this happen. These discussion boards can be helpful to teach our young people how to do things the right way, and make better decisions.
I can’t stop looking at her in those tarzan pants
<<<<<HAHAHAHA LOL @ H-TOWN….. KEEP TRYING HIM I CANT STOP LAFFING……OK: FANTASIA DOING SOMETHING THAT’S TAKEN HER MIND AWAY FROM REALITY….. AND NOT PAYING HER BILLS? HOPE THE LIPS AINT TOUCHING A PIPE????? GIRL AINT MADE MUSIC IN AWHILE FOR HERSELF…. SOMETHING BESIDES THEM PANTS IS “DEFINITELY WROOOONNNNG”"”"”"”
Not for nuthin,but i’ve got family in that neigborhood. that’s the house she bought for her mom. she doesn’t reside there.
her poses and style is just so damn funky. she always look like she’s tryna air out the funk. ms. funk-nest muffin. =\
Tasia apparently does not have a stylist or publicist, because if she did they owuld tell her to stop wearing that ish!
@ Go head girl!!
That’s her damn business! Shit!
Yall taking this freedom of speech shit too fucking far. I don’t need some fuck ass media outlet to take my hand and say I need to know what the hell is happening in every celeb’s life.
I don’t care.
Sad these ‘fly by night’ ’stars’ trying to live large! Guess she never read the MC Hammer ‘If only manual’
She is gutter for real… why do the ladies down south have to be so tacky with the colors in their hair?
From the celebs Tiny, Monica, Fantasia down to the losers in those prom pics… they are tacky!!!!!!!!!!!
If someone cares about freedom of specch why the fuck are you on a blog.. it is some straight azzholes
she is a hot mess!
I think that there is more to this, because she is not broke, please don’t think she is sitting around doing nothing, she does own businesses. So she still has income coming in.
1) Your black with yellow weave?? You probably dont have any hair; you look like your shit is nappier that a mug. Calling that bird snatch a ponytail. lol
2) Your eyebrows seem to blend in with that rotted looking frontal view you call a face.
3) You look mad in the pic…because I’m sure you know you’re ugly too. Even gunrocker’s gravie looks better than your REAL pic. Aint that a shame?
4) Actually, you look like the Beast from Beauty and the Beast.
5) Are you upset that you really have herpes yourself? You should also add to your signature..”including me”.
6) WAIT A MINUTE….*looking at pic again*….Are you Biggie reincarnated?? You seriously look like dude.

LMBAO!!!
BWAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!
U STOOOOOOOPID!!!
@Raquel 26 None of us good men are checking for Fantasia- We’d rather play with ourselves.
————————————————-
LMAO!!
i wish her the best!!
@ Raquel26
1) You’d think in Hollywood they would have better cameras to zoom in and out with because this pic makes Tasia look wide and fat.
2) This is definitely a “no-class” outfit. You can take ‘em out the hood, but you cant take the hood out of ‘em.
3) She could have worn something to cover up those dark nipples showing through the shirt.
And @ Herpes…just a correction…there is no “had” with herpes. It’s “have”…..cuz its the gift that keeps on giving! lol
I’m curiuos to know why you chose that screenname. It’s kinda funny to me though….and I’m sure you knew it would cause some jokes up here in Bossip world. lol
because she needs some attention no matter how degrading…
like fantasia, hope that all is well in her world. personally, i think they should auction off her whole wardrobe.
@GOODNOOK YOU ARE THE ONLY ONEWITH ANY REAL DAMN SENSE THESE FOLK JUST WANT MONEY FROM FANTASIA. THAT GIRL KNOCKED OUT A WALL IN THAT HOUSE AND PUT IN HER 2ND STATE OF THE ART RECORDING STUDIO…THIS IS BULLSHIT!!!THESE FOOLS BELIEVE AND COMMENT ON EVERYHTING!!!
SOMEONE IS HURTING FOR MONEY IN THIS RECESSION AND IT IS NOT FANTASIA…GREEDY LYING MOFOS.
GIRL HAS NEVER THOUGH OF LOSING HER HOME, SHE WOULD NEVER HAVE HER DAUGHTER EVICTED.BULLSHIT!!!
