I can’t stop crying for her. I watched her from her first audition on American Idol. And to see the woman she has become, is beautiful to see.
Just go see the movie and hush 😏😂😆
@@cocosheabuttarosemaryqueen9204 LOL. I knew someone was going to say some thing like this.
FACTS
@@SURN2012 as if that's her niece or some shyt lmfao 😂
@@cocosheabuttarosemaryqueen9204 No, just another black woman proud of another black woman and wanted to express that. We quick to express the negative, but for some reason the positive too is met with negative🥲🥲🥲🥲
This woman can sing her tail off, slay an interview, dress for the gawds and strike poses for the camera better than a top model. I love it❤
Fantasia has a calling on her life. She was born to be big, to conquer. I’m super proud of her.
The way Black women genuinely and fullheartedly love, support, uplift, compliment, bolster, build up, protect and give praise to Black women, I have never seen any other group do this... not white women to other white women, Asian men towards Asian men, Hispanic women to Hispanic women etc etc etc. it’s really something extraordinary to see post after post after post of Black women coming out of everywhere to express genuine support, love and encouragement to sister Black women. You can hear it walking down the street with a Black woman calling out “that dress looks good on you, your hair looks fantastic.” It’s really something to behold. Never stop doing this. Peace 🕊
I'm beyond proud of Fantasia!!
I remember that clip. Summertime was the song. She told her she didn't need American Idol. That she saw Broadway and movies in her future and she could do it all. There was no limit. So give Paula her credit.
I have always loved me some Fantasia ever since American Idol. She is not only a one of a kind voice, but a one of a kind heart as well. She should write a book because there's just so much depth to her. Congratulations girl!! You deserve every bit of it.
She did write a book. LOL!!!!!!
@@CactusThorn That was 17 years ago. It's time for an update! 😆
Was it? The she should write ANOTHER book. LOL. @@allthingsnu4673
She and her husband has a wonderful book that came out in the beginning of the year titled No Crowns in the Castle. Order it, read and get blessed.
Thanks. She does have a story or two to tell for sure.@@johannahalexander2915
From the moment she stepped onto the American Idol stage, she radiated star power!!! Congratulations on your success, Tasia. So happy for you!!!
I am so proud of Fantasia! This is her time to really shine and get the praise that she deserves. 🎉 👏
I’m smiling ear to ear and so happy for her! Purple is the color of royalty, and Fantasia that’s what you are! It’s not just your year; it’s your season! ❤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My heart is so full from watching this interview. I am in awe of the woman that Mrs.Taylor has become. I remember auditioning for American Idol with her friends, who went on to become her background singers in Orlando. That was also the same year that Fantasia won, and that prize could not have gone to a better person.
and that’s the humble woman she is! her friends came to win it, but in the end, when she won, they ended up winning. they went for the ride.
She Finally have received her Flowers. Congratulations Fantasia. God bless you.
Her answers are so thoughtful. I've loved her since American Idol.
Your TIME Fantasia!!!! I am so happy for you!!!
Love Fantasia. She deserves EVERY good thing!
The growth I see in Fantasia since American Idol has been amazing to witness! I’m excited to see the movie, many more nominations and awards to come for her. Love that all the hosts incorporated purple into their outfits. Love Fantasia’s blouse, beautiful! 💜💜💜
WINNER - She will sweep the awards!!! We see you Fantasia! We love you!
We see you Fantasia. Been rocking with you since American Idol❤❤❤
I love Fantasia so much because I have watched her growth and revolution. She was always beautiful but she radiates beauty and I think that happens from the inside out. She’s a grown woman and knows/loves herself and anyone looking can see it in her walk, her smile, her dress, the experience (her performances and personality), that she is. I pray the best for her. I’m so glad she found someone that loves all of her, too. It’s special to find your Boaz…that man that can bless your in and out and your head to toe. Sorry y’all, Fantasia just makes me smile. Sis, keep shining💖🙏🏽🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Me too.
Gotta love Nate for asking such thought provoking questions and as always Fantasia delivered with moving responses. A short interview packed with a lifetime of encouragment. Ty for sharing. And Fantasia - I see you!
Fantasia looks AMAZING 🤩
I've LOVED Fantasia since she auditioned for American Idol and STILL have her winning video "I believe" in my playlist. There's no way a performance like that she wasn't going to win. I absolutely LOVE where she is now!
My girl sparkling the way she deserves to sparkle - an undisputable talent!
This girl be making me wanna cry everytime I see her! I just love her so much...Congratulations, Fantasia!

Can't wait to see The Color Purple the Musical. I've loved her since Idol. She seems like such a pure soul. I admire her tenacity and especially talent. She's is a walking miracle. God bless you #fantasiabarrinotaylor.
I’m so very proud of my sorority sister. Wishing you the best Pretty Poodle🐩💙💛
we saw the premier as a group yesterday 12/14/2023 in D.C. #TheColorPurple our group was asked to wear purple and we rocked it. This movie is amazing. I saw the original Color Purple when I was younger. Seeing this #TheColorPurple in my eyes as an adult that has gone through some of the same things, made me thank God for allowing me to see me as well. I have changed my mindset and have started my own clothing line to thank God for all he has done to get me through my rough times. #ImStillHere and there's nothing the devil can do about it, because I serve a God that is bigger than him. #ThankYouJesus #ThankYouFatherGod #Humble
That song in the beginning sounded great 😍 Miss celie’s pants 😍 can’t wait to watch it
I sooooo deeply and profoundly feel herJOY!!! I love her honesty, her rawness, her classiness!! She’s The REAL deal and God is working through her!! She’s BEAUTIFUL and glowing and fully OWNING who She IS!!!GOD Bless Fantasia, her HANDSOME Husband and The entire Color Purple Cast!!!❤😘😍🙏🏾👍🏾
I love seeing her succeed, she deserves everything she is experiencing right now. The great talent she has is undeniable!! ❤❤
Wheeeewwwww!! This has me all choked up. You defiantly deserve this moment Queen. I too speak an OSCAR for you
Love!!!! Fantasia and for sure she'll get the Oscar.
Love her dearly, and she always has her hair together .
When I See You and Free Yourself are 2 of the best songs, ever.
Peace to Fantasia. She is a resilient human being.
Also Gotta lose to win. We tend to cling to things but letting go can be the healing we need ❤
The play was sensational and the movie I know will be superb
Been a fan since idol. She deserves this. So happy for her!
Words cannot express the joy I have for Fantasia. I am 55 years old and dream to be a gospel star. I audition for three minutes for star search when I was 18 years old but never got selected. When I first saw Fantasia on American Idol. I cried every episode with tears of joy. I felt as though she won for me and all those other single mothers who struggling as artists. I dreamed to one day, attend one of her concerts, but knowing that someone of color who has made our dream come true through her world of accomplishments. I love you more than ever! Blessings!
I’m so very proud of Fantasia! I see the start of an amazing acting career.
❤. 😢 can’t wait to see this movie🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
She deserves it👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
Loved Fantasia since her debut w/American Idol. Can't wait for Christmas day to see The Color Purple, I even have a purple Christmas tree.
The most powerful thing she said in this interview (and she said MANY powerful things)... "I can see me. I know who I am." and then smiled. Oh Fantasia. You already won. Fantasia is the personification of "how to conquer your life when the circumstances were unpleasant".
I saw her on broadway, she was fantastic! I can’t wait to see the movie. So happy for Fantasia.
Fantasia has matured into the most beautiful enlightened women. So proud of you Fantasia:) So Proud:)
Fantasia is Oscar bound! Its her time ❤
I claim it in the Name of JESUS!
I am looking forward to spending time with my husband and family on Christmas, but boy am I looking Forward to seeing the color purple, much love Tasia, very proud of you
I cried watching this interview. So happy for you girl!!!!!
Me too!!
Her testimony is so beautiful. 😊
Love Fantasia! Can’t wait to see the film!
We see you Fantasia!!!❤
This lady is so beautiful and talented!
Fantasia I see you.
All the Best to Everyone on the Colour Purple.
I am Grateful for this Re- make of the Movie.

I adore her. Ive been a fan since Idol and never even realized that people thought she wasnt famous. She has always been an amazing artist. Shes always been down to Earth. Shes always loved the Lord. I love that fact.
I love Fantasia. Such a beautiful soul. I never voted on any show, but I voted for her. Bravo, queen.
I've always loved Fantasia. I see her growth and I'm glad to see that she loves herself. Such a talented woman. I pray that she have much success because she is truly a STAR!

Fantasia I have always loved your voice. I’ve always wanted to hear more. Please know you have a unique and beautiful voice and you are one of the BEST!♥️
So proud of Fantasia been a fan since day 1❤❤❤❤
Light, 🎉classy and humble! A multi-talented lovely young lady! 🥰🥰🥰
I’m so proud of how far god has brought fantasia. I love her ❤
It wasn't god. It was her family, her children, her therapist, Fantasia herself, and many others who helped her to this point.
@@robertr798Yeah, but God given her that God-given talent that she is using to her fullest potential. She endured the storms on what He’s helped her conquer that could have been a much different story or ending.
Where would any of us be without G.O.D. in Christ Jesus? Soli Deo Gloria forevermore!
Sooooo proud of her!!! Happy for her!! God bless you, Fantasia!❤👏🏼🙏🏽
