  • Fantasia Rocks the Crowd at 2012 Essence Music Festival… [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    Jul, 9 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Fantasia Barrino hit the stage of the 2012 Essence Music Festival last night looking well rested and energetic!

    After reports that Tasia lost it onstage last week in Trinidad after her married baby daddy Antwuan Cook was boo’d up with that d-list reality show star, Barrino managed to keep her composure and wowed the crowed with an opening number that included the entire marching band from New Orleans’ O. Perry Walker high school!

    Fantasia was dressed to impress in a tuxedo style white blazer paired with black sparkly pants but she quickly kicked off her shoes and got down with the crowd!

    She was effin’ amazing!

    Barefoot and over the barriers she went!  Fantasia went straight into the crowd belting out a go-go version of “3 In The Morning/Back To Reality,” and a fun, funky, upbeat medley of Prince-related covers.

    She also covered Sheila E.’s “Glamorous Life,” Morris Day and the Time’s
    “The Bird,” and Vanity 6’s “Nasty Girl.” Still, though, the greater part of the set drew from her ballads (“Even Angels,” “Bittersweet”) not her wild side.

    Watch video of Fantasia’s performance on TheAPod…

      I’m happy she is doing her, but i wish she would get rid of the weave and go back to the short cut because it is more becoming.

      She looks GREAT and I LOVE longer hair on her! Makes her look younger.

      I like that she does concerts year-around. Shows that she is not only a singer but a real performer.

      Her personal life is none of my business!

      I do like Fantasia’s music but the reality is she is a ghetto hot mess!
      As for Antwaun if he will cheat with you he will cheat on you, so no suprise there.
      Fantasia has a gift from god a beautiful voice I just wish we would stop thinking with what is between her legs and start using her brain and god given talents in a more productive way.
      Cut that loser Antwaun loose and maybe try being without a man for a minute.
