    FANTASIA IS A HOMEWRECKER.

    Oh and Can’t wait to see the show.

  2. TIFFANY

    CANT WAIT TOO SEE MY GIRL…

  3. Mrs. Sk8board P (ak & bk stan)

    i saw half of the “preview/first” episode already.. it’s pretty entertaining

  4. Justin

    Wow.. I love my family but I would NEVER take care of grown folks who could go out and get a job.. She better watchout.. I can already see that money dwindling..

  5. HBQs has been REVAMPED!

    It’s a pity she has to support her family. I can’t stand when leeches suck the life and money out of the one successful person in the family. I’d support my loved ones, but after a certain point they need to step up to the plate and DO SOMETHING. Fantasia doesn’t get Beyonce money, so no wonder she lost her house. Poor woman. Her money should go to her daughter, not everyone else. If you’re having family problems too, just visit the MIND section of Healthy Black Queens (click my name to get there). Go to ‘Relationships’ and you’ll find some great advice for family, friends, loved ones, and co-workers. Don’t be afraid to comment!

    Now this is what you call a HOMEWRECKER!!!!!! This girl out there vacationing with a married man with three children in Barbados. I will NOT be watching her show.

  7. B FAN not B STAN

    i wait until tonight I know they will be going in on twitter from the prewvies it looks interesting

  8. Meat

    That was a sad country mess!

    Fantasia definitely has something, but she’s also missing something too!

  9. pamelicious

    that Negro Teeny – NEEDS A JOB – QUICK
    black ppl will hold you down!!!! taking care of an entire family on one income – THAT IS WILD!!!! them Negroes best clean toilets, flip a burger or sumthin or sumthin!!!!! Fantasia fails they are all BOOTY OUT!!!!!

  10. kim

    i actually like fantasha… and i like the single… funny how record companies can make bad decisions. she needs to keep doigng what she do n change her look n everything…. people like new never seen stuff like lady gaga n riri

  11. Meat

    Maybe all these reality show singers like Fantasia, Monica and Keishia should form a group like the fellas did with LSG and Blackstreet. You have to be a triple threat to make it as a solo artist…sing, dance and looks. Beyonce and Rihanna are one part singers, one part dancers, and one part eye candy. Okay, Rihanna is .005 dancer and singer, but she more than make up for it in the eye candy department. I hate to see great singer exposing their personal lives to the public.

  12. RedbonegotthatKillBill

    If the script and production are on point this has the potential for being a good show. Her bro is a lazy HAM. How are you testing a Ferrari and don’t have a job, a license or a pot to piss in?SMDH. And its not Fannies fault her bro became like that, that’s her bro not her child, momma is responsible for that 20 some years of lazine

  13. RedbonegotthatKillBill

    *laziness.

    Um is “2010 is mines” a direct quote or is that the VH1 writers doing? I’m offended.

  14. pz

    teeny would be out my house IMMEDIATELY!!!!! i can’t wait for this new project tho!!

  15. pz

    @ 12

    i was wondering that too! like, mines?!

  16. Luke James

    ok,this is going to be good.
    Now i’ll watch this. This show might be more moving then the other reality jump offs. i can feel the honesty in this. and its got the comedic factor which is always good in a reality show. Especial where you know there will be some heart touching moments.
    Her older brother is hilarious. Awh man that dude is crazy.

  17. blackbeauty

    This is country bama drama. Fantasia is exposing her business and making a damn fool of herself and her family as well. I dont think she’s cute. she has a horse face and an annoying voice. I only like one of her songs which was “when i see you”. She needs to step her game up and work on her image cuz she look like who did it and ran. LOL

  18. Keenan Carver

    I usually dont like Fantasia and her playing the victim but im getting to see her vulnerable side with the show AND I LOVED IT and cant wait to record the episodes. she’s got to get rid of that no good brother of hers im saying.

    and her song was so good! good show…not failure!

  19. FARFRUMLUZIN

    “2010 is MINES” yall know thats a ignorant/country/silly Fantasia DIRECT QUOTE! LMAO she say MINES in the show also just to be cute tho so lighten up yall! This show will do well for her career. Who gives a eff if she creeping with somebodies husband as long as it aint yo man why you worried about?

  20. FARFRUMLUZIN

    PS Her aunt was killing me flipping that hair!

  21. Stan

    Thats f*cked up that Fantasia is taking care of 4 grown people and 2 kids that ain’t hers. Plus it doesn’t help that she is uneducated. She made 2.6 million from touring and record sales.. But after buying a 1.2 million dollar house, and spending thousands of dollars every month on her family = Broke..

    Fantasia could of brought a nice 350K dollar home, nice enough for her and her daughter. And had the rest of the money in the bank drawing interest. Fantasia made enough money so she wouldn’t have to worry about money for atleast 10 years, If she managed it correctly. If I can survive on 50k a year.. She could of did the same.. Why spend everything U got? Dead beat family, thats why…

    Hopefully she learned her lesson… If she get out there and tour with a new album, she can make as much as 50K a show… Be smart this time Fantasia !

  22. diva1up

    home wrecker or not the show was entertaining i will keep watching

  23. Junk

    The only people Fantasia owes anything to is the one she birthed and the one who birthed her. The rest of them can get a job.

  24. Fantasia is Real

    Love Fantasia she is so real she came from the bottom and made her way to the top, and if you’re hatin’ on that then something wrong with you. I don’t care who she’s sleeping with I just want her to come out with a nice album!!

  25. LOVEY DOVEY

    OK I WATCHED THE SHOW AND I ALREADY WANT TO SLAP THE SH!T OUT OF HER BROTHER TEENY. HIS LAZY AZZ DOESN’T WANT TO WORK AND HAS THE NERVE TO BE OUT TEST DRIVING A FERRARI. SHE NEEDS TO MAKE HIS BIG GROWN AZZ GET A JOB A.S.A.P. HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO EVEN SHOW HIS FACE. LITTLE B!TCH AZZ.

  26. ♥¸.•*´¨`*•.¸♥•.¸♥¸SHEENA♥ ¸.•*´¨`*•.¸♥•.¸

    Omg I hate it when people say mines. Ugh that just urks me lol! I love Fantasia though. She really can sing her butt off. She needs better people around her that know about the business and not just her country azz family that is bleeding her pockets dry. Not a good look. Every adult in that house needs to have a job…Including her mama. Bring something to the table even if you are just buying the groceries or paying the light bill. She has no obligation to any of them. Zion is her only responsibility.

  27. 2 BAD

    Wtf is wrong with the record company? I was really feeling that song. It could be a hit single imo.

  28. Shit

    Fantasia Is No More than a another Hood Rat but with money & her Family are no more than a bunch of free loaders.-Makes for great T.V

    *POP CORN*

  29. media robot

    CL YOU ROCK!!!!

    I missed it came to your site and there it was….I wish Fantasia the best despite her personal life…HOWEVER!!!!! It is very sad how once again fam can be your downfall (only if YOU allow them to be) and/or your enemy…shame on her oldest brother living off her…as a matter of fact I know that’s Momma but if she said at one point she didn’t know where her next meal would come from where was Momma…(((SIGH)))!!!!

    I wasn’t even going to watch the show but my girl talked it up and here I am…

    I hope great things will come to Fantasia and her fam from this show so that can stop living off her and make a great life for themselves…

  30. SOSOFRESH

    HOW IS SHE A HOMEWECKER? it’s not her fault,its the niggas fault he choose to leave his wife and fuck with fantasia,all he had to say was no thats it,how do u guys kno that he’s not seperated from his wife? you guys will belive anything the media puts out

  31. morganstate

    Fantasia need to kick out her lazy brother.
    It’s sad that her last album flopped because I actually loved it anyway I wish her the best.

  32. gary

    That Teeny fella. What a ridiculous dude. She needs to cut people like him from her life IF she wants to go to a higher ground.

    And it’s funny how some people continue to support Fantasia… But drag Alicia on the internets.

  33. linda

    Everyone is getting pissed off at that lazy ass brother. She suppose to have it together I’m not saying its right but at some point the word is call no. See people when you enable a person this is what you get. The world wants to call him lazy which may be part true but it takes to you can help your family in not throw them in the river to drown but don’t enable them. Because then you will create a hot ass mess. If anything this show should show people if you have a lazy ass family member that you love in want to help don’t jus give give give make sure they earn what you are giving them. Make sure they are getting off there lazy else in going to school or something because if you dont you become there dealer in they become your crack head in it becomes in addiction in the whole family is lost in what to throw the addict out in call them all type of names when they created it. Love your family and if you have the means teach them how to fly on there own. Just saying its not just his fault.

  34. Alasiagyal

    Is it me, or does anyone else notice how VH1 is exploiting the lives of African-American people. I recall when VH1 used to be about ‘Pop up Video,’ ‘Behind the Music,’ as well as other shows that weren’t as degrading as the current show line ups.
    Since Flavor Flav started the “I’ll film my life for a check from a group of people who think they know my kind,” every black celebrity that may be a “C” or “D” list celebrity have joined the band wagon.
    Doesn’t anyone noticed that they are running a slave field, but the African-American people aren’t shackled and chained nor are they picking cotton.
    I’m telling you all, the fat cats in the business suits (who happen to be white men) are really running and controlling black people. There are a few people who are acceptions, but again, very far and few between.
    Same goes with Hip-hop music.
    Trust me, there are plenty of Harry Reids of the world who think the least of black people such as the ones we see on reality television.

  35. That Rihanna reign just wont.....

    Love me so0me tasia. love me some Fantasia For Real. Aunt Bunny is my girl “Whats the name of ur business son?” Teeny need to kick rocks. fuh real.

    Move on me babyyyyyy

  36. Real Mick Swagga

    VH1 really irritates me.The negative images that they put on television of black people are pitiful and resembles a minstrel show.

  37. afrobella82

    agreed @ #36.

    I can’t help but love Fantasia though, she has a really nice personality. I wish her the best.

    As far as her personal life, that guy she’s with wrecked his own damn home, not Fantasia.

  38. b-eazy

    People lack to take responsibility for their own lives. Is VH1 using them or just exposing a “secret” that mainstream doesn’t want to realize. Black, white, hispanic whatever all have some good for nothing lazy people living in their homes sucking the life outta whatever payck they are allowed to. You seen this on many shows but when it comes to black shows, black people seem to take it harder, but laugh if this same image was on a white person’s show. Stop with the double standards, open your eyes, and acknowledge that this is just life played out on TV…..

  39. dee dee

    I can’t understand how her almost 30 year old brother is sponging off of her! I can’t understand how she is supporting her whole family! I do understand her wanting to help her family out, but Fantasia MUST put her foot down or she’s going to flush everything she worked for down the drain. If she allows people to keep living off of her, there soon won’t be anything left for her daughter and herself. The music business is fickle, she needs to be thinking about the long term and stashing every dime she can. That’s something that applies to us all, nothing is gauranteed, you have to save even when it seems like a time of plenty. Real talk, Teenie would be out and every person in the house with exception of her mother and her daughter would need to be working and contributing or they would need to be leaving – pronto!

  40. Ask About Me

    @ SOSOFRESH

    Though you may not consider her a homewrecker because dude and wife is separated. What kind of female is interested in a man who leaves his wife and kids behind. That show how much of a man he really si. A real man will work and try to keep his family together.

  41. Ask About Me

    I see why there are alot of unhappy black females, because most choose sorry qualities in men!

  42. marci0881

    WOW @ the comments. Okay Fannie Mae do you! AND SING YOUR SONG GIRL!

  43. MiMi

    I met her a few years back and she is a very humble person. I think she is extremely talent and I actually like the show thus far. She’s trying to get her life in order. As far as her dating married man (we don’t know the history between them). If he isn’t concern then why should we? It takes two to tango and it’s pretty obvious she looks happy. Please stop passing judgment. Who are we to judge?

  44. kaneesia

    i was nvr a huge fan of her’s but i wish her success!!!!!

  45. sweetga

    i am so so rooting for Ms. Barrino i love you like a sister chica and i will be watching the show…. i understand her need to want to help support her family…. you all don’t know how they grew up or what she wants to do that is why it is her family and not yours……….i love the song move on me……. beautifull … Keep doing great music Fantasia it will never fail you……. you have a fan base no matter what people think…. and beside this reality show is paying all of the “cast members” that are on it … they have to sign a residual paper for each episode… so technically teeny does have a job now…. and no one seems to be recognizing that he is talking about being a recording engineer !!!! Not a RApper or Producer he is very smart but if you are not in the music busines you wouldn’t know that music engineer get 200 or more an hour so go sit down bunnies tricks are for kids…. NOT HATE HERE AT ALL I UNDERSTAND THE GAME

  46. backingbarack

    When in the hell was she a size 0? This girl needs to lay off the liquor. This is exactly Keyshia Cole’s show however I must admit Fantasia has more of a positive vibe and personality to her so that is her advantage. I honestly hate her talking voice and when she screams it irritates me but for the most part her singing voice without the screaming is not bad. She just needs to lay off the Patti Labelle moments.

    They complain about Teeny but why is she supporting her eldest brother and her mother too? Her mother can work too, she looks young. Unless she offers free cleaning and babysitting then she can slide but her other older brother needs to get the same treatment as Teeny. I think Teeny is a leech but I also think they told him to be the troublemaker for this season to get ratings.

    I wonder if she will feature her married boyfriend on the show.

  47. sweetga

    AND THESE ARE FACTS NOT OPINIONS LIKE MOST OF YOU PEOPLE SEEM TO HAVE ON THIS SITE …… HE WANTS TO BE A RECORDING ENGINEER NOW HE MIGHT THINK ABOUT GOING TO FULL SAIL IN FLORIDA OR SAE IN ATLANTA TO GET SOME ENGINEER EDUCATION BUT MY GOD HE ACTUALLY WANTS TO BE A MUSIC ENGINEER…. HE IS VERY SMART …. HE MAY NOT KNOW IT BUT HE IS….. EVERYBODY AND THERE MOM WANTS TO BE A RAPPER OR A SINGER OR A PRODUCER…. BUT NO HE SAID HE WANTS TO BE A RECORDING ENGINEER…. MOST OF THE RECORDING ENGINEERS IN THIS BUSINESS ARE WHITE MALES…. SO GO SIT DOWN AND RETHINK YOUR JUDGMENTAL MINDS AND EAT A BANNANA!

  48. sweetga

    @BACKING BARACK…… WHY ARE YOU SO NEGATIVE? I MEAN EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SAID WAS NEGATIVE…DO YO PERSONALLY KNOW FANTASIA BARRINO? OF COURSE NOT…. DO YOU KNOW WHAT HER MOTHER OR BROTHER DOES? OF COURSE NOT .. YOU ONLY GO OFF OF WHAT IS FED TO YOU THROUGH MEDIA…. BUT YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IS FACT OR FICTION…. IAGAIN WHY IS WHAT YOU ARE SAYING ON THIS SITE SO SO NEGATIVE … DO YOU THINK THAT IS FAIR… AGAIN DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT AS FACT? GET YOUR MIND RIGHT

  49. pz

    ummm….VH1 can’t create a thing! this is black reality…why be mad bcuz u r the anomaly? be thankful u have it a lil better than others! besides…they show the lives of white ppl too, and quite frankly i don’t see a difference! that rock of love and tila tequila mess…or what about surreal life?! the white ppl are always cuttin up on there! even on mtv…wildboys, bam, jackass, jersey shore….u would never catch me doing the crap they do! ppl of every race have problems and act a fool sometimes. stop making everything about BLACK EXPLOITATION!!! that’s what keeps our ppl down…not VH1! if there were a channel that exploits blacks it would be our own channel!!

AND NOT BEING…..GET YOUR MINDS RIGHT AND SIT DOWN SOME WHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  51. Ms. AKA

    Fantasia lives “right around the corner from me” well a few streets over… Been a fan of her from day one. She needs to make money and since it worked for Frankie and Neffie, it may work for Teeny Auntie and the Momma.I love Fantasia. Wish her the best…I be seeing you at CIAA, Charlotte NC…

  52. Meat

    Fantasia should purchase the FERRARI for Teeny and insure him for $20 million.

  53. Ada

    Love Fantasia’s song “Move on Me” after just hearing a little piece of it on the show. The record company don’t know what they are talking about. That song sound like a hit to to me.

  54. backingbarack

    @48 STFU! You obviously can not read if you think I was being negative. Get your GED along with Fantasia.

  55. sweetga

    @ backing barack…….like I said YOU ARE A NEGATIVE MONKEY!!!!!!! I DON’T AND WON’T STFU CAUSE THAT WHAT THIS SITE IS FOR STATING YOUR OPINIONS AND SOMETIMES FACTS… JUST LIKE YOUR MENTALLY ILL SELF DID BY SHOOTING DOWN SOME ONE YOU AGAIN DON’T KNOW……..AND PLEASE CHANGE YOUR NAME CAUSE YOU COULD NOT BE BACKING ANY ONE WITH YOUR NEGATIVE SELF….. YOU DON’T KNOW HER …… SO YOU STFU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND GO TO SLEEP SOMEWHERE AND NOT WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  56. sweetga

    @BACKINGBARAK……. SHE MAY HAVE BEEN A SIZE ZERO HOW DO YOU KNOW SHE WAS not? if you are going to speak on someone and be negative about them like so many others on this site then at least be accurate

  57. divainva

    Can we get a post on Pepa show? They acted like a bunch of whores, I mean damn. I know many single educated black women they do not act like that smh.

  58. sweetga

    @49……………..I SO AGREE WITH YOU…… IT IS NOT JUST BLACK PEOPLE THE ENTERTAINMENT WORLD EXPLOITS…… IT IS ANYONE THAT IS WILLING TO BE EXPLOITED FOR WHAT EVER IT IS WORTH TO THEM……..WELL SAID

  59. wifematerial

    I BELEIVE FANTASIA IS VERY TALENTED. ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES. BUT SHES REAL. I THINK SHE HAS A GOOD HEART CUZ SHE WANTS EVERYONE TO BE TAKEN CARE OF BUT AT SUM POINT U HAVE TO CUT SIBLINGS OFF ESPECALLY …HER BRO WHO IS 28 AND NO JOB OR NOT EVEN IN SKOOL. SHE NEEDS TO CUT HIM OFF. NOW IF SHE WAS PAYIN FOR HIS COLLEGE THEN THATS $ PUT TO GET USE BUT HE JUST BEING LAZY AND LIVING OFF HER WHICH IS SAD. I ALSO WISH FANTASIA WOULD COME OUT WITH A GOSPEL ALBUM. SHE CAN BE LIKE AL GREEN WHO DID BOTH R/B N GOSPEL

  60. Agree with the majority, Teeny is a BUM! On a side note, Dennis Rodman on celebrity rehab with Dr. Drew, two words: Plum FOOL!!!!!!
