When Fantasia was a teenager, she got pregnant and dropped out of high school. When Fantasia had her baby girl people doubted her and said she would not be able too support her and her baby girl at all. But she got a job and struggled to get the things her baby needed such as diapers and clotihes. A couple of years later Fantasia thought too herself that when her baby is in high school and she wanted to see Fantasia's diploma, and Fantasia said she did noit have one, she wondered what kind of example she was setting for her daughter. So Fantasia went back to school and got a diploma . And proved everybody wrong. She tells teenage mothers who drop out of school to dont give up. Today her little girl is four and is in kindergarden.

Even though millions of people voted Fantasia Barrino as their American Idol, the singer admits that there was a time when she doubted America's fondness for her.

"Towards the end, I didn't think I was going to win, when it was me and Diana [DeGarmo]," the 20-year-old told The Associated Press in a recent interview.

Some of that skepticism crept into her psyche after fellow contestants Jennifer Hudson and La Toya London got the boot. Public discussion centered on whether voters would pick another black singer as their champion. Even Elton John chimed in that their low-vote tallies were racist.

"I didn't think I was going to win," she said. "I don't know why I was thinking [that]. Black people support [one another], but I was like, 'They probably ain't on the phone. [White people] are going to support their peoples.' "

Any concerns about her universal appeal were squashed after she won the contest this year with a 1.3 million-vote edge over DeGarmo.

"Every nationality would come up to me and say, 'I voted for you. I love you.' So I stopped thinking like that," she said.

Fantasia's debut album, Free Yourself, was released last month.

God loves us all if you put him first | Reviewer: Tangie | 4/5/2008

Fantasia Barrino your movie sent a message to me and other fans. I like it when you sung in the church it was a meaning behind it. You proved no matter if your pregnant you could be successful, no matter whether the baby daddy not there by your side. But we could make it if we try. We bring problems to ourselves thinking were to grown to listen, to our parents. We tend to go through struggles,but your savior will bring you out our mess. Stay positive and be strong, always remember God is always first and he's the key to your heart.

U have helped so many African American women such as myself realize dat we dnt need a man to depend on and dat we can do it ourselves if we just trust, believe, and pray.And i wanna thank u so much for dat. Keep the gud work up, I'm proud of u. LYLAS(Love You Like A Sista).
