Singer Fantasia Barrino ended weeks of speculation by announcing that she was pregnant on stage yesterday! The announcement happened while Fantasia was performing during a charity concert being held at the opening of Riverview Apartments in Jacksonville, Florida and was caught on video by a fan in the audience:
WHOOPS – That got deleted quick! Here’s another…
From Fantasia:
For a while I walked around figuring out what will they say and what will they think about me. But now I tell you I don’t live my life for folk.
So, this child that I carry…God has given me this child. And I don’t have to hide it from NONE of y’all.
The pregnancy rumors began after Fantasia was photographed in Barbados with her controversial beau Antwaun Cook with a suspiciously round belly (and ridiculous life preserver around her neck). Although she did not clarify in her onstage declaration, everyone assumes Antwaun is the father.
Congratulations Fantasia!
