‘American Idol’ Winner Fantasia Barrino May Lose Home

Comment

Posted: December 10, 2008

Looks like another celebrity is in danger of losing a home:

"American Idol" winner Fantasia Barrino is again finding that, like the title of her autobiography, life is not a fairy tale.

Court documents obtained Tuesday show one of Barrino's houses in Charlotte is up for auction after a company said Barrino failed to repay money it loaned her to cover her taxes in 2006.

The Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office is scheduled to sell the home, valued at $1.1 million, in January. The home isn't in foreclosure, but rather is being used to compensate the company that loaned Barrino money to cover taxes.

God always take care of his. This may be a test like what Job went through. He lost everything and through it all he continued to be faithful to God and was rewarded in the end. God will take care of his children. Fantasia keep your head up and continue to give him the praise and worship and I promise in the end it will be ok. I love you girl.
