Rumor Mill: Is Fantasia Pregnant?



In the last day we've gotten confirmation that 16-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears is with child, and that Lily Allen is knocked up, and now, if internet rumors are to be believed, American Idol champ and current Color Purple star Fantasia is also pregnant. The baby-daddy is apparently rapper Young Dro.

MediaTakeout.com is reporting that, according to a Color Purple insider, Fantasia has been talking openly to the cast about her new condition. The insider explained, "She told [one of the cast members] that she's pregnant and she's really excited"

The insider also claims that while Fantasia isn't showing yet, she's definitely acting pregnant, saying, "She's walks with her hand on her hip and all of a sudden she's taken to chewing ice."

Looks like they'll have to release 'Tasia's song "Baby Mama." B-A-B-Y!

UPDATE: Fantasia's rep says that she is not pregnant, although some Broadway sources are still not convinced. Thanks to the commenter below for the update.

Fantasia Barrino shoots down pregnancy rumors
By Missy, CBB Writer
Despite speculation online and in the New York Post, former American Idol winner Fantasia Barrino is not expecting a baby. In a statement to US, the rep for the 23-year-old star of the Broadway version of The Color Purple categorically denied the rumors as "entirely untrue." Furthermore, a rep for the show offered up an explanation for Fantasia's sporadic absences from the stage production, absences which seemed to spark the speculation in the first place.

It is true that she has missed some performances because she has gotten sick from time to time over the nine months, but doing eight shows a week is a lot so she missed a few.

Fantasia is already mom to daughter Zion, 6 1/2.
