ABSOLUTELY PERFECT !!!!!!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜
I've always wondered why they wouldn't have a former American Idol winner be a judge on the show. It makes sense for them to be judges on the show, if that's where they started.
Taraji and Fantasia’s friendship is everything 😢
She seems so sweet, humble and kind❤
It's so good for Fantasia Barrino to talk about Leah Labelle from her season when she was asked about the recent loss of Mandisa. And yes! she will be a good judge.
Fantasia would be fantastic as an American Idol judge.
I love the moment between fantasia coleman and taraji. I would start watching American idol again if fantasia was a judge
Why not.....she's an alum and a winner....so who knows better than her?

She does not have the star power to replace Katy Perry on American Idol.

@allechacarter9331 not trying to belittle her and her talent. But you need a superstar in that chair. She has superstar talent, however there's no chance in he'll you're going to convince me she's a superstar in the ilk of katy perry or Beyonce. Stop yourself.

@MrAngel87 no! She's paid her dues! Over 20 million albums sold! 3#1 songs, have stayed on the CHARTS for over 20 yrs and not letting up! We all know fantasia she's a worldwide name! So it would make alot of press having an alumi winner from the earlier seasons would have us all watching! We all remember the early winners period!
Fantasia is so genuine! Well deserving of everything in her life. Stay humble!
Fantasia would make an excellent judge on Idol… she’s one of the most memorable & successful winners on that show! Her, Ruben, Kelly, Carrie and Jordan were the only ones my daughter & I voted for 💗🫶🏽👏🏽

Yes
I think Fantasia would be great as a judge on American Idol. ❤️
this will make me start watching idol again if Fantasia is picked as the next judge
Love you Fantasia. I would start watching idol again if she was on it.
Life is like a sport, facing obstacles and learning from them. Every time we fall we get back up and try again until we finish what has been started! We try and try never to quit, because what's life without trying.
Yass Fantasia Barrino ❤
Fantasia is so classy

Omg fantasia is such a kind sweetheart
A big yes !!!!
HAPPY SUNDAY ET!! FAM 2024
This is why I love Fantasia so much!!!!!❤
I pray Fantasia gets hired as the next judge on American idol..🫶🏽
Yes that would be great
I think that would be great. Having someone who has been on the show before would be very helpful for future contestants
I wonder what Fantasia meant by “I know it was you, thank you!” Taraji reminds me of my aunts and just seem so sweet/funny. Love their friendship 🫶🏾💕
OurcFantasia Happy Anniversary!!
PURE, BEAUTIFUL, MAGNIFICENT, PHENOMENAL, STUNNING, REALEST💯‼️
I wish Fantasia would replace Katy! Fantasia at least is talented, and I feel would be more fair.
GOD!!!! She would be great for Idol! 💛
Fantasia is a natural. Such a goddess ❤
She’s so sweet & kind. She’d do amazing
There’s power in the tongue, I would love to see her as a judge on American Idol. She’s been there done it worn the T-shirt.
Fantasia has a good heart and a spirit for the most high. We need that for all the American Idol contestants who come on there broken
Fantasia is just sweetness personified
She has such a good heart.
Why is Katy leaving? Also yes Fantasia or Kelly would be great, however Kelly may have too much on her plate already.
Great idea!
ruben, clay, fantasia.
Fantasia looks gorgeous and is being blessed.
She would be IDEAL…🤩but we know that probably won’t happen.🥺
Fantasia is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Muy linda
OH PLEASE BE A JUDGE
Fantasia for American Idol, so America let’s vote
Honestly that's what American idol needs to do! Bring one of the old winners on as a judge! They're earned it by now and have stayed in the business doing good like any other artist atp! It's only fair and It would help ratings!
The perfect option for a judge.
People would truly tune in To American !
She is the next judge!¡
P L E A S E🥺🥺🥺 That would be like Jennifer on The Voice UK (she sang)🫨🫨♥️♥️♥️

I don’t see it but I don’t make these decisions. And sometimes you gotta just put it out there never who might agree.
Please replace Kate
For the love of God NO!!! I couldn't stand her when she was on American Idol the 1st time. I'm sure she's probably a good person and all, but I just can't listen to her on Idol
She doesn't have the right personality for this show. She's too sweet and soft spoken.
