Fantasia Going Back To School

It’s back to school time for former American Idol Fantasia Barrino.
Fantasia will re-enroll in high school to earn her diploma, which has been a goal for the R&B star since she dropped out of ninth grade ten years ago.
“I’ve been talking about it for so long,” say the 24-year-old singer. “I have a lot of young people who look up to me, like my 15-year-old brother and 7-year-old daughter. It’s something that I really need to do and that I want to do.”

She needs to go back to school to get educated and learn how to manage a little money. When someone gets something they’ve never had thay do stupid things. Why buy beyound your means? So you think you can sing??? But you can’t manage your little bit of money. duh??? It shows… Grow up and get an education so you can deal with the real world!!.

I agree with the statement made by Jackie, when she said that people react differently to something they’ve never had before; which unfortunately includes “money!” But if you are to bad mouth someone about going back to school, please do a spellcheck or something on your post! Beyond does not have a “U!” I would just like to say to Fantasia that you are an inspiration to all of the young girls from “around the way” who feel like their dream are next to impossible to reach. You make it our vision obtainable. Keep pushing sister..and I think that its great that you are going back to school. You will do great!!
