Fantasia Barrino found sudden fame as the winner of the third season of American Idol. Barrino's story of struggle and triumph, as a single teenage mother looking for her big break, won over America and ultimately helped win her the coveted title. Since Fantasia’s win, Barrino has continued to grab headlines, but not for her music career. Fantasia’s father sued Fantasia Barrino for $10 million dollars after the release of her autobiography, her home was foreclosed on and most recently she's had to battle back from allegations of an affair and an attempted suicide.

Fantasia Barrino to tour this fall :
 Any doubts about how Fantasia Barrino has recovered from her difficult summer will be put to rest this fall when she hits the road for her Back to Me tour. She’ll play 30 dates, beginning with a Nov. 4 stop in Richmond, VA. Kandi and Eric Benet have been announced as her special guests.
Barrino attempted suicide on Aug. 9, overdosing on aspirin and sleeping aids after a barrage of negative press focused on her relationship with a married man. The drama was captured for her VH1 reality show, Fantasia For Real, leading some to ask if the show was too real.
Is this a comeback you’re rooting for? Touring is one way to put the focus back on her music. This is the Fantasia Barrino tour.

Fantasia Barrino Biography (Short bio on Fantasia Barrino) :
Fantasia Barrino may have won with her version of American Idol's 2004 single "I Believe," but it was her passionate take on George  Gershwin's "Summertime" that had everyone talking weeks after she had performed. That she delivers teen pop and classics from the American songbook with equal conviction is a testament to the versatility of singer Fantasia Barrino. Confident to the degree you could consider her brash, Fantasia Barrino seemed an unlikely candidate to take the teen-oriented show's title at first glance, but with her dynamic gospel-tinged voice that never failed, Fantasia Barrino not only became the Idol judges' obvious favorite, but the American public's, too. Born and raised in High Point, NC, Barrino fell in love with music through the recordings of Monica, Brandy, Aretha Franklin, Pink, and -- in keeping with her diversity -- Aerosmith.
Being a 19-year-old single mother and an Idol finalist had some of the media mumbling and sneering, but the always-certain Fantasia Barrino paid no mind. Becoming a mother at the age of 17 had focused Fantasia Barrino and given her the strength and drive to audition for the show in Atlanta. Out of 70,000 hopefuls, Fantasia Barrino earned her way to the top by adjusting a special style to whatever genre was thrown at herself. Upon beating runner-up Diana DeGarmo, Fantasia Barrino's first words as American Idol 2004 were "I broke my shoe!" Numerous appearances on talk shows and a cameo on the television show American Dreams -- playing the role of her beloved Aretha Franklin -- followed. Barrino made history when she became the first artist in history to debut at number one with her first single, "I Believe" -- written by Idol alum Tamyra Gray. J-Records released her full-length debut, Free Yourself, in November 2004. A year later her autobiography, -Life Is Not a Fairy Tale, appeared and was turned into a film directed by Debbie Allen and premiered on the Lifetime cable network in 2006. Her sophomore effort, simply titled Fantasia Barrino, landed at the end of the year. David Jeffries, Rovi
