R&B star Fantasia made her first televised performance since her attempted suicide two weeks ago, stopping by Good Morning America today to promote her new album ‘Back to Me’, which hit stores today.
Check out her interview, in which she discusses the almost-tragic event, as well as her spine-tingling performance of ‘Bittersweet’, after the jump.
Amazing.
‘Back to Me’ is currently #1 on the iTunes R&B Album Chart and top 10 on the main iTunes album chart.

I am very proud of Fantasia..The interview was a bit of a tear jerker. She sang that song..She is indeed very talented.

Bishop Walter Dixon of Atlanta, GA Exclusive Prayer Thanking God For Sparing and Giving Fantasia Barrino Our Sister In Christ A Second Chance. Bishop Dixon Extend His Invitation To Fantasia For Spiritual Counseling.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90Ea7uQ6GKs
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him. (John 3:16, 17).
Therefore having been justified by faith, may you have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ while you exit your storms of trials and tribulations and begin the journey back to yourself. Through “Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” whom you have obtained your introduction by faith into his grace in which you stand; and you exult in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but you also exult in your trials and tribulations, knowing that trials and tribulations brings about strength, and strength bring about hope; and hope bring about proven character; and proven character will bring you faith; and faith does not disappoint because the love of God has been poured out within your heart sister Fantasia through the Holy Spirit who was given to you (Romans 5:1-5).
You may be afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed, you may have sins and through like so many of us forgiven, you may have experienced darkness, but through “God’s Grace” you found his marvelous light knowing that He who raised Jesus will raise you also and will present your mind, body and most important, your soul with him during these wonderful days of a second chance of your new life.
Therefore you should never lose heart, but through your inner flesh is decaying yet your inner soul is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing for you an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, while you look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporally sister Fantasia, but the things which are not seen are eternal .
During your darkest hours while you laid your fragile life in the hands of God almighty it is because of his blessing and forgiveness that he send his angels to hold on to your pressure souls and spirit that all Christians will continue to pray for you a safe return always for your daughter, love ones and “Your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Sister Fantasia as you placed your fragile body down for healing with the hospital staff and physicians, I want you to know it was your Lord Jesus Christ who was near you to defend you, within you to refresh you, around you to preserve you, before you to guide you, behind you to justify you, above you to bless you. My sister in “Christ” Fantasia you shall lives from this moment in faith with the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost.
Our Father, as “Christians” we thank you for being gracious to your child Fantasia according to Thy loving kindness and according to the greatness of Thy compassion. She thank you for your love, Father she maybe perplexed and afraid during difficult times of trials and tribulations. God we know it was your will and “Grace” that extended the years to your child Fantasia. God, I ask you to send your angels to help keep your child Fantasia’s eyes open to focus on you. “God” as this child of yours is being healed day by day through the Holy Spirit help Fantasia and her family to lay there prayers and burden in the hands of your son “Jesus Christ” who paid the price for our suffering while here on earth.
Amen

Ps. I have posted a live video copy of this prayer on Google, Face Book, MySpace and Youtube.com for others to join in prayer.
Awesome performance!! LOVES ME SOME FANNY!
BISH YOU BETTER SANG! Been hoping that Fantasia would see the light @ that the end of the tunnel, and I got my wish. Hope she does well with her album. I’m predicting 125k-150k…I hope..
This ghetto trashy do anything for album sells b****…I am sooo disappointed with her….Why stoop so low?….J.Hud LOST her whole Family…She ain’t do no crazzy s***…..Fantasia sleeps with a married man she wants to kill herself…How “Christian” like…..She thought she was going to do what Monica did with the Reality show and she didn’t/won’t…All this drama was for sells how sad….This b**** ain’t try to kill herself when she was doing moderately well…No she has a new cd coming out/new show contract she wants attention…H** plzzzzzz…..
And please leave the T-Boz hair to T-Boz…And that dress with that shape = A HOTT ASS MESS ! ! ! ! !
*Im just saying what we all are thinking/Know…You don’t like it…Bend Fantasia over and kiss the crack of her hairy ASS 😀 Good DAY*
🙂
PERFORMANCE WAS AMAZING
but im a need her to never wear a dress like that without spanx
Up until now my heart goes out to Tasia…I really felt how she is hurting….my prayers and thoughts are with you Tasia….the album is BANGING
Prayer that she keep going on strong. I feel her pain and I know how that struggle can be when your taking care of everything. I may not agree with everything that has happen with her in the past year, but I know good soulful R&B when I hear it and I will be buying this CD to support the music. KEEP PRAYING TASIA
all celebrities need therapy though , cause this fame game must be hard, but still i say what about ya damn daughter, if theres one person you should love more than yourself its your child.
I will be picking up Fantasia’s cd today! I’m so happy to hear REAL soulful singers such as Fantasia,Monica and my gyrl Jazmine will be releasing her cd soon too!
Love tht song!!! In my home town my radio station is repping her hard & keep promoting her album every minute! She is getting alot of support! Kepp ya head up Fantasia!
@ Secret Voice
Absolutely!
This year, we got Monica, Fantasia, & Jazmine to bring real R&B back
“Love Me Back” (Jazmine’s new album) out October 5th 😉
You better sang Fanny!
What I will say, Fantasia and every other celeb goes through the same things regular people go through and some people aren’t strong enough to cope with it all. I totally understands where she is coming from and I hope she continues to get the help she needs.
We as people tend to point fingers and judge others without looking at ourselves first and that’s sad. We can sit here and talk about her and every situation that’s going on with her, but really it’s not our place. What’s going on with her personal life isn’t all her fault. The music industry is a very brutal business and everyone is not looking out for your best interest. It takes TWO to carry on a relationship and weather she knew or didn’t know isn’t the problem, the problem is, was his marriage any good to start with? I hate when I hear people use the word home wrecker. It’s not a perfect world so people need to stop acting like it is mind their business. I bet over half the people that call her a home wrecker have done the same thing or will in the future! Never say never!
PS: The performance was electrifying and I felt every emotion. Great job Fantasia!
That performance was fire. Her voice just touches me it has so much emotion. But she is in no condition to be promoting an album. She needs psychiatric help. The record company just want to milk her dry. But in the end. Is it really worth it? She just may try to do it again and next time she may succeed.. Then how would U feel record company? I tell how like a murderer.
FANNY UR GOING TO KILL UrRSELF OVER “SOMEONE” ELSE MAN!!!! TRIED HEARING ABOUT THIS BULLS%%%.
YASSSSSSSSSSSS! Omg, I had chills this entire performance! Every time I see her perform I want to start shouting! And that live band just intensifies the performance.
This woman’s voice is beyond phenomenal! TRUE talent! This woman never disappoints during her live performances! She can do SOOOO much with her voice while still having that chilling R&B soul component. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!
I can’t wait to get her album today! Team Fanny! 🙂
Ok, I’m about to watch this performance AGAIN!
i love this girl!!!! She is so realllll. And by the way the album isn’t all that!…..sorry Tasia. Love “Bittersweat” though.
THAT PERFORMANCE WAS AMAZING…THE ALBUM IS THE BEST RNB ALBUM PUT OUT HTIS YEAR…ITS BANANAS…CORN BREAD AND COLLARD GREENS IS THE BUSINESS…
SHAKE THEM HATERS OFF AND KEEP LIVING IS WHAT I HOPE SHE IS ABLE TO DO BECAUSE SHE HAS A VERY RARE TALENT.
People are so quick to point fingers and criticize others for their mistakes but wht yall need to do is take a look at your own lives. Not so perfect huh? Instead of kicking her while she’s down lend a helpin hand in picking her up.
she so fake
I agree @ TheBaddestBitch
I LOVE this girl! I can’t wait to go buy her album and that performance was AMAZING!
omg that interview I cant..made me tear up. cant believe she has to do interviews about all this so soon. I hope she gets to talk to someone else besides a life coach..
SHE str8 up rocked that performance and did it with complete justice! Another amazing perfomance!!!!!!! KEEP up the GR8 wk FANNY~
someone always gotta have something negative to say huh… lookin @ ppl callin her all types of names and sayin she this and she that… i guess you all who are saying that are perfect huh? ppl in glass houses should NOT throw stones… you all dont know half her struggle or her story or what its like to go thru things like that… yet if you were to wear her shoes you probably wouldn’t be able to survive a foot in them much less a lifetime… so before you are quick to judge and before you continue doing the devil’s work by tearing other’s down, maybe u should try building up… not saying that s****** was the best thing to do because it is not… but obviously she did not succeed in it meaning she still has a purpose in this life… can’t really say much of that for all the other haters (well then i guess that would make you have a purpose and you are fulfilling it…)
fantasia did a TERRIFIC job and looks BEAUTIFUL… i’m glad to see she is back and doing well and i wish her continued success… this is only the beginning of a new life and a new leaf for her and its gonna be amazing to see the massive continuous blessings that God pours out to her.. its always darkest before dawn… gotta be tried in the fire in order to come out pure gold, and watch her shine…
It is just amazing to me how so many people on here have this judgemental stance on this women situation. I guess that no one has ever felt that way in their lives where they either contemplated or attempted s****** because they where overwhelmed by the current state of their own lives. I guess the people that have commented have so much strength to deal with their own emotions. Everyone is different and deals with thing in various ways but thank God we didn’t lose Fantasia. She has a story to tell and it will be told to help others struggling with the same situations of hurt, insecurities, and dispair. You have to walk in someone shoes first before you judge and truly someone of you think your shoes are clean. HUM!!!! Stay stong Fantasia!! Great enterview and performance!!!
I cant…
Her voice is annoying IMO
But hey…I guess I will give her props by sticking to true R&B and not this electro pop/dance trash that is out now.
well u cant say she cant sang hello thats whats up work tasia
her album is amazing, she is a true talent. I guess some of you didnt listen to the interview, quick to say it was because of the relationship, in which none of you are blaming HIM for. She said it was other reason, many other reason.
i bought her album already on itunes yesterday……….. go tasia go you will get another man soon, forget that looser antwan
THE TIMING OF IT ALL IS JUST…..
IT SEEMS LIKE ITS WORKING IN A FANTASTIC SMOOTH WAYY?
LIKE NOW SHE’s TALKING ABOUT IT ON BEHIND THE MUSIC?! WELL DIDNT THE S****** ATTEMPT “JUST” HAPPEN?!
IM SORTA IN AW HOW ALL OF THIS COMES TOGETHER SO PERFECT.
BUT YEA, SUCH A SOULFUL SINGER.
this guy gave a really good review of her album “back to me” go check him it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcs9kgJ6YTs
That was a good interview and a great perforamnce. I wil watch to the performance again
before I leave this website. It is bad even that the White media is trying to tear down
Fantaisa , but it makes it even worse when black people. I felt her pain and I know
what it is to have everyone depenping on you that can be overwhelming.
THE BEHIND THE MUSIC PARTS THAT SHE IS TALKING ABOUT THE S****** WAS JUST TAPED SATURDAY GET YOULL FACTS RIGHT!!! THEY ADDED MORE TO HER STORY SINCE ALL THIS HAPPEN! BUT IF YOULL STOP TRYING TO BRING HER DOWN ALL THE TIME AND READ THE FACTS AND NOT THESE (BLOGS) THEN MAYBE YOULL HATERS MIGHT LEARN SOMETHING! FANTASIA KEEP YOUR HEAD UP! YOUR TRUE FANS WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU! LOVE YOUR CD!
Tasia, don’t know if you’ll be reading these comments and I really hope you don’t but………….only what’s between you and God matter. Some of the trash these people are spouting on here are only the words of the enemy and we know he came to kill, steal, and destroy. Don’t you let him. Lift up your head, shake these negative comments off, and keep on steppin. Love you, girl!
tasia love your voice………….& who cares how much pills u took as long as you’re here today it`s HISTORY
OMG!!! I am blown AWAY completely. I decided to go and get her Album yesterday, I’m a man so I don’t usually dig chicks albums without a message but FANTASIA’s album is amazing!!! FIRE,,,from start to finish… This album is CLASSIC! If you don’ t have one. please GO GET A COPY now! This is real RnB!
MAN THIS ALBUM IS REALLY GOOD!! i JUST GOT MY COPY AND GETTING ANOTHER ONE FOR MY MOM TODAY! REAL R&B IS BACK! Support her and get your copy to cause she is SANGin! God bless you Fantasia Gurl! Keep ya head up and remember.. Hatez are motivaters!
I WILL BUY HERE ALBUM FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOOOOOOOOOOOVED her first record, hated the second one and always wanted her to have more polish. Now, despite the unfortunate circumstances Fantasia has delivered the best R&B album of 2010. Not satisfied with Monica (who’s live performances disappoint and who hasn’t released a good album since her second one) and don’t care much for Jazmine Sullivan. “Tasia” has taken the pain and channeled it into a great record, deserving of accolades. The live performances take my breath away….
