Check out some of the new photos of singer/actress Fantasia Barrino shot by popular ATL photographer Derek Blanks. He posted them on his twitter early Monday morning. Looking good Fantasia!
In related news, Fantasia will reprise the role of Celie in the national tour of The Color Purple during its Washington D.C., Chicago, Atlanta, and Los Angeles stops. Not to mention, she is playing Celie in the movie adaptation of the play. Fantasia also has a reality series set to premiere on VH1 in early 2010.
Fantasia & Derek
Derek is an awesome photographer. He took photos for my sister’s wedding shoot.
Fantasia is looking good. Glad to see her doing big things.
Glad to see Ms. Fanny finally not looking a mess… am I 1st??
she’s hot!
Tasia looks beautiful. Derek surely does his thing
FANNY LOOKS REALLY GOOD. NICE WORK!
Check out my girl Fantasia, the photos look fantastic.
If photophop could make Jenifer Hudson’s waist skinny for her album cover, no surprise here, we know anyone can look amazin! But she is ghetto fabulous I must say and Glad to see her teeth lookin nice! Hey at least she can sannnnnngg and I mean saaaaaanggg
wow, Fantasia looks gorgeous, and he is good, the lighting and everthing
Cute.Happy she is back on her grind with the albums!
She always could but especially now…can get it in
I think the photos look really nice. I just wish that she would concentrate on that new album and pick up on that Broadway later. It’s been since 06 that we had an album from her, that should be her priority, isn’t that why she won that damn show? And why do they need to do another movie on The Color Purple? Wasn’t that done already? Thats not even necessary. Maybe a tv film of some sorts, but they don’t need to recreate it again. I’m just being real, I like Tasia as a SINGER first.
LOOKING GOOD INDEED FANTASIA! I AM SO PROUD OF HER AND I AM ATTENDING AN EVENT HERE IN ATL THIS WEEKEND, WHERE SHE IS EXPECTED TO HOST. I JUST WANNA GIVE HER A HUG, LOL!
ITS ABOUT TIME SHE DOESNT LOOK LIKE A HOT GHETTO MESS. THIS IS A GOOD PHOTOSHOOT.

Fantasia looks beautiful and I’m so proud of her! Keep up the good work!
defly a good look!!!!!!
Fantasia looks sooooo great! Can’t wait for the movie adaptation of the play
* Wow, she actually looks pretty for once! I wish she didn’t mess herself up with all them trashy looking tattoos. She’s pretty when the make up covers it up!
Man I can’t wait for fantasia to bring some new music, she look good as hell here, especially that first picture
Im glad to see finally some positive comments about tasia this girl is badddd and no one can touch her love ya tasia you the bomb and haters well we cant do nothing about them keep ya head up!!!!!
FANNY LOOK GOOD, BUT PHOTOSHOP DOES WONDERS.
I see you tasia lookin all pretty and classy..cant wait for the movie and the music
Can’t stand her screaming but these are some nice pics.
Good look, tasia. whwen arr you coming back?
I’m ready for a new Fantasia album. Any news on that?
she looks decent
still a moose
pig in fancy lipstick
still a pig
its good to see fantasia doing her thing. she took a break from the music thing and went into theatre, i aint mad at you girl. and these photos are jaw dropping marvelous!! this is my first time seeing her without her braces and she looks gorgeous.you better work miss barino (:
I think all of Derek Blanks’ photoshoot photos for everybody..LOOK THE SAME! they all get glamed up, *stop and pose for the frame*, then the pics get photoshopped like hell.
glad they covered up her tats!!!!
Hugh well, what can I say? She just can’t pull of the glam look to me. I guess I’m one of the few who feel this way scamming the comments, oh well. These shots are better than most I’ve seen her in, dare I say a slight upgrade? One positive I can say is that she can put on a good show, the girl gets down!
she looks good
Best singer of our generation. The photos are perfection. Go Fantasia.
@34 grow up and get a life.
@12 the movie is a musical. unlike the original that just had a few songs.
Tasia looks great. Love this chick. Simply cannot wait
Feeling the shoot she looks great no longer the GHAM Fannie…her look matches her pipes powerful and classy.
@make my day I doubt she is have as ugly you must be to feel the need to make those comments…just a complete mess.
I love her, but in that first pic with the red dress, she looks like a man.
for one, I don’t like it.. it’s not Fantasia…
she’s not the sultry soulful singer in a jazz club.. that’s not fantasia.. get her screaming in a mic or doing a lapdance and we’ll believe it.
You don’t put pearls before swine ( no offence )
I’d prefer to see her in amodern setting, being a live singer not aged beyond her years lookign like she’s a jaz musician from whenever,… plus they need a steamer for that dress..
had to re post man.. these photos are just not flattering.. they’re overly styled, under photoshopped, wrongly styled.. and the makeup isn’t enough
She should be coming out stunning, she should be the grace jones of RnB this shit makes her look like she’s a gospel singer.. I’m not buying it..
wrong photogra[her.. I see her doing some shit with and edgier photographer who can capture all that is fantasia.. loud, ghetto-fab, care-free
this shit here just looks stale and era-ambiguous which is not a good way to make her seem hoip and modern and relevant
I saw a couple of these on facebook. Finally, she looks classy. I hope she takes this image to the top and stop dressing trashy. Great photog!
Go ‘Tasha! Can tell she has been working out and taking care of herself which is always a good look. That’s what I like about Keishe Cole- she has been taking care of her health and it shows. That is a glow that does not require surgery!
isn’t she normally all tatted up?
Somebody finally fixed that TRAIN WRECK!!! THANK GOD the new look is nice.
love her pictures..
love her..
Get it Tasia.
She can do broadway if she wants. A check is a check & she has a child to feed. So fall back.
I see she covered up those tacky tatoos. That’s why I refuse to mark up my body because I don’t want to regret that crap later.
@ 33 It takes a happy and grateful human being to speak great things of another and it’s easier to put a person down than to give them their props. So try and to be a little more happier in your life and see the glass as being half full rather than seeing it half empty. if you were truly happy, you wouldn’t see tasia or any other human being in such a derogatory way. Try to glorify God in your life, and see what He does for you. Go Tasia!!!
Fantasia looks so good really really cute! I am a fan of her music
She looks nice but I really wish she would focus more on her overall career. I know we don’t always need to worry about what others think or say but Fantasia is a talented young girl who in my opinion, isn’t pursing her dreams nor is as focused as she should be. Fantasia can get some #1 hits but she ain’t putting them out like she should be.
And stop destroying your body, these younger entertainers are really going to far with the tattoos. Who told ya’ll that was attractive. Especially all over your arms, right now were I’m at their making teachers cover up their tattoos for the upcoming school year.
NOPE! Don’t like it.
Fantasia looks good, the hair is nice especially in that white lace top
These are the best pics I’ve seen of her. I agree w/#29.
nice pics…
go head girl and make that money doing the color purple! i ain’t mad at ya!
