Why Fantasia Barrino Initially TURNED DOWN ‘Color Purple’ Movie (Exclusive)

Ойын-сауық

Fantasia Barrino chatted with “Extra’s” Terri Seymour as she was honored at Variety’s Power of Women in Los Angeles. It was a full-circle moment 20 years after Terri covered Fantasia when she won “American Idol” way back in 2004! She got emotional speaking about working with Oprah Winfrey on the new “The Color Purple” movie and revealed why she was initially reluctant to step back into the role she played on Broadway.

    After 8yrs I want to be that happy and filled with Joy when I see my husband. I noticed that before her husband appeared she struggled to get her words across...when she saw her husband and her eyes lit up, honey those words started flowing. He provided a strength she needed in this life. So happy for her

    I am such a fan of Fantasia. I watched her on American Idol and I’ve followed her career since then. It is so wonderful to see her bounce back from the trials she’s been through. She is truly deserving of all the wonderful things that come her way. I am so excited for the Color Purple movie, I got my purple dress ready!

    I love Fantasia and we looked so much alike, when I was a much more slimmer woman! People would follow me thinking I was Fantasia. I have loved this woman as a little sister ever since she started. Fantasia is the Epitome of keep going, trust in God, and never stop believing yourself! Love yourself unconditionally it works and makes a difference❤

    When is she going to come out and say the TRUTH? That it was about pay. We all know it. She was put through years of torturing herself on stage as Celie to be paid slightly better than the others for her role, but still, it was absolutely NO WHERE NEAR what she deserved to take on Celie.
