Video: Fantasia on American Idol
Former American Idol winner Fantasia threw down on American Idol last night. I didn’t watch it, but the ladies of The View tried to clown my sista. Even Simon Cowell gave Fannie the side eye.
I guess if she was a contestant on the show last night she would have been voted off? Ignore the hatahs, Fannie! You see Rihanna ignored the hatahs and now she’s made history.

IDK no what to say (Lips Zipped Shut)
Yes I do………I guess they felt she could have done better….but Fannie always had that high pitch voice………I think if she tones it down a notch she’ll be good
It doesn’t matter if Simon is feeling her or not…Fantasia is doin her thing and makin that gwap!!!
I like Fannie…I don’t know about some of her performances, they could use some improvement and sometimes she could use a stylist’s advice but thats still my gyrl!
Seriously Sandra, you can STOP with all the “hata” comments about Rihanna. Everyone is not in love with Rihanna as much as you, just like some people don’t like Beyonce or Alicia Keys. It’s their preference, but I will say that there is a big coincidence that a LOT of people seem to agree that Rihanna does not have TALENT. I guarantee you that she WILL NOT have longevity in the music business. I personally only like 2 songs that she has. I have her album and it is collecting dust (believe me) under my stereo. She can dress her @ss off though, but that’s about it. I love music. I love HIP HOP, but I don’t love Ri Ri.

On the real subject though…
I thought she did rather okay. I agree with LovelyLady.
I sent that video to all my friends this morning.It was scary and she looked a funky mess but I like Fannie Mae nonetheless.But it’s weird that Young Dro is such a snazzy dresser and and she…….well neva mind
I’m going to need a translator or get this performance chopped and screwed so I can understand what the hell she was saying before I make any further comments
~~~As for Rhi - tricking for tracks and only coming in at 53 is not really history, just another poor performance
it wasn’t one of her best performances. i’m not sure if it was because the hair kept throwing me off from listening to her or what. i think it was okay…but, the bright red has got to go…
hoow exactly has rihanna made history? lol
fantasia has avery irritating voice
She can dress her @ss off though, but that’s about it.
Her stylist can actually.
Can someone tell me what she was saying, because I couldn’t understand a word.
why can’t white ppl clap on beat? THATS what I wanna know. Overall, I didnt see the problem with the show aside from her brother participationg from 2 floors up
The problem with Fantasia is she treats every song like she’s still in the gospel choir..Unless you come from that background it’s hard to take over and over again..As far as her performance, she did fine she had stage presence and interacted with the crowd..however, she needs to tone it down if she wants her fanbase to expand..if she’s fine where she is then she’s good to go
I cant see it, and I was giving my puppy a bath last nite so I missed it. Dammit… is it really that bad of a performance? What did she sing?
Can’t please everybody, she sure do having people talking though!
haha sandra u cant help but find a way to tie big head into everything!
I thought her performance was great! It was very high energy and the song sounds like the new thing for the summer is going to be R&B songs with a old 70’s kick-back feel to them (like Solange’s new song).
Fantasia just needs to get her look together. If she got a tad more classy, she could very well solidify herself as a future musical icon!
LMAO @ miz.dondiva (15)
u so wrong!!
Ummm … I FFW’D through the performance, so someone please tell me where Simon was looking at her funny?
I’m sorry but fantasia made a fool of herself on stage yesterday. The same expression that Simon had on his face was the same one I had. I was in shock at just everything. Fantasia’s back up dancers were more pleasant to look at. From the hair, to the outfit, she was a hot mess, Vocals were horrible and what song is that cause I honestly did not understand what the hell she was singing.
Didn’t someone tell ‘tasia that you don’t do red hair, red lips and red nails at the same time! lol.

the song was Bore Me (Yawn) from her last album.
Her singing was aight…nothing to brag about…but that damn red hair…she looked a HOT GHETTO MESS!!!
High energy performance! Simon British behind don’t know about breaking it down. Thats why Clive still has her around and dropped Ruben and Taylor Hicks
I loved the performance. Funny story…I was jamming to it while I was on the phone with my mother who was also watching. My mother made the comment, “Oh boy, what would Simon say if he could judge this??” Then right after she says it, they cut to a closeup of Simon making that floored expression.
Some white woman at my job had the nerve to say that Fantasia’s performance was a mess and she was trying to dance but has no rhythym. First of all, I get upset when white people critique black people, it makes me super uncomfortable…but I had to bite my tongue when she said it since we are at work and she’s the Senior Partner’s advisor. This white woman cannot dance AT ALL (I’ve seen her try hard) and she had the nerve to talk sh*t about Fanny…you guys do not understand how upset I am and Fanny isn’t even my familia.

Everything you just said is so true. That is how I felt. Simons expression was “I can’t believe she was picked to be an American Idol, what happened to her”. lol
I AM A FANNY FAN!
I didn’t see it last night but I watched it today. I didn’t even turn the sound on and I liked the energy she brought to the stage. Yes the red hair, lips and nails are a bit much, but you can best believe that a stylist is waiting in wind to swoop Tay-Tay up, turn her around and place her feet on solid ground.
Can I get a AMEN!
WHY ARE U SCREAMING?!!!!!
Are you talking to a church or singing a song?!!!
Love Fantasia but this wasn’t a great song choice. She does have a beautiful song!!!
*I meant voice…that song was all I was thinging about!!!
*thinking…damn have I lost my mind!!!!
She had too much dro last night!LOL!
the song was nice and i like voice. i just can’t look at her. if you are going to do crazy hair color it has to be on point. it looked like her little girl played beauty shop with her. and her outfit looked like it smelled. i like fannie as an artist she has great material but the image is a hot ghetto mess. then again….it’s not really an image she is just hood.
*her voice*
I like Fantasia, I really do. And I think she has an amazing voice when she’s not squawking and screaming. I just wish she’d let her beautiful voice flow without all of the “yeah yeah yeah” and screaming.
She was rather plump and greasy looking on AI last night.
Fantasia is just one of those artists who i LOVE.
She’s real and comfortable in her own skin. Sure,
that performance was all over the place, but it’s
Fantasia! She’s a wild child. Simon needs to close
his mouth. Can’t stand him. And those boring whores
on the view are hopeless.
Huge Fantasia fan..but even I had to give her a WTF last night. One key to being a great entertainer is knowing your audience. IMO..Last night was not the appropriate time to get all baby Patti Labelle and let them have it. While I can appreciate most of the performance…The majority of the very commercial audience that is American Idol..Just wont get it…Thus the look on Simon’s face…LOL..
Oh yeah..and won’t someone slip her a note and let her know that she is not as small as she thinks she is..The cat suit wasn’t very flattering. Not gon even bring up those half shaved arm pits…Eww…
LOL @ “get all patti labelle..”
*dead*

It’s not right, but I am laughing out LOUD! You are crazy!
It’s like mama…we can point out their flaws but nobody else should.
Real talk Fantasia did her thing. I like it, she had her Tina Turner/ James Brown swag in tact last night. I think that type of performance is more for BET than for the pink people. Isn’t Fantasia signed to American Idol as an artist, you don’t think Simon knew that was in production? As far as ya girl Rhianna, jumping from #53 to #1 is about the same as Rick Ross debuting at #1. Yes people buy Billboard spots ask Danjah. Not impressed with Rhianna at all. Baby is fresh and can dress. She definitely giving Beyonce a run for her money as “It Girl” But ask any dude who they’d rather have onthey arm between the two and see what the response is. Ask any fan who they would pay CASH MONEY to see perform live and doubt that would be Rhi Rhi. I am not a Beyonce fan either, just opinionated
Loving the performance the song was hot. I like hiw fannie a had a lil beyone moment at the end. Her hair was cute really felling the make up or outfit. I think she did good. I really want to know what that song was. Does anyone know?
Simon and everyone else associated with the show had to know what Fantasia was performing. Anyway, like I said on TMZ we all have differant taste. I thought her performance what hot to death.
Tasia was a hot mess, but I am still a fan.
Did somebody say CHOPPED AND SCREWED!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA
I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT, SHE IS A DIAMOND IN THE RUFF…!!!!!! PLEASE STOP HATIN, ITS A LOT OF YALL THAT CANT STEP FOOT IN HER SHOES, THATS WHY GOD CHOSE HER…..
im not saying she’s without talent, she just needs some fine tuning all around. i hate her screaming and yelling. american idol is racest. i KNEW they were gone vote ole girl off last night. how the eff she keep ending up in the bottom, week after week.
whew, against my better judgment, i briefly watched it. uh-uh. she may be the sweetest lil thing, but her singing is horrible. please take some lessons, i beg of you, Fantasia. uh uh. STOP IT I SAY.
It looked like she dipped her head in the red kool aid mix…and what in the world was that performance about???
I love Fantasia no matter what….but she was just all over that stage a little too much for me. I had the same expression on my face as Simon did…..lol….She is the “new” Patti……

The song is from her latest CD and it’s called Bore Me (Yawn). It’s a really good song, one of the best on the CD. The performance however, was a bit all over the place. She is so talented, but people aren’t really feeling her image.
