Well, it seems like Fantasia is back to NOT performing in The Color Purple..AGAIN!
In the past, during her Broadway stint and her traveling stint; Fantasia would take a day or few days off from performing due to some type of medical condition. Well, this time the play is set in Los Angeles and Tasia will NOT be performing this weekend. Here's the official statement released from her camp:
The Color Purple regrets to announce that Fantasia will miss the remainder of this weekend’s performances of The Color Purple at the Pantages Theatre.
Fantasia did not perform in the Friday evening show due an inflammation of her vocal cords, and this morning, her doctor advised that for the fastest and most complete recovery she must sit out the remainder of the weekend.
She is scheduled to resume her usual performance week starting Tuesday, February 16th at 8:00 PM. Performances of The Color Purple will continue through the weekend as scheduled with an understudy in the role of ‘Celie’. Ticketholders wishing to exchange tickets for another performance must visit the box office or point of sale:

Tickets may also be purchased in person at The Pantages Box Office (opens daily at 10am) and all Ticketmaster ticket outlets.
Well, I wish Fantasia all the best and I hope her vocal chords heal properly. Now, I ain't one to gossip,but if you follow her reality show, she made a statement in the second or third episode about how she can't get it together when she has too much going on around her and is feeling stressed; that is what played apart in her missing so many dates of performing in play. Allegedly, she's dating 30 year old Antwaun Cook, a married Realtor/ T Mobile Retail Sales Manager. Now, Fantasia is saying they are only good friends; Uh huh Yeah girl... Go with that!
They have been photographed vacationing in Barbados, and she has his last name tatted above her breast; and the word on the block is he has moved in her luxurious home; forsaking his wife and one and four year old sons.
I mentioned this because dating a married man is stressful as hell and I'll tell Fantasia myself, No matter how phyne he is (and Antwaun Cook is phyne as hell)! He ain't worth the heartache and pain that's going to surely come. I guarantee, he's going to give her something to write and sing about.
Leave Tasia alone! I'm just glad she put it out there what her problem is. This type of thing happens all the time to singers... Hell, Monica has learned that its not in her best interest to even talk on the day of a concert to preserve her voice. LEAVE TASIA ALONE, KIRE!
