Fantasia Barrino hospitalized after aspirin-sleep aid overdose

Filed under: News

American Idol winner Fantasia has been hospitalized and treated for an overdose of aspirin and a sleep aid, her manager, Brian Dickens, confirmed to People today. “Her injuries are not life threatening. She was dehydrated and exhausted at the time,” Dickens said. “Fantasia is stable now. She will be released from the hospital soon.” The news comes a day after the singer issued a statement saying she is not responsible for breaking up the marriage of a North Carolina couple.

    • Iyad

    • Em

      If you don’t “wish her harm,” then what’s the point of your post?

      • Becca

        Um, that he doesn’t like her.

        Susan recommended me a nice community, ______ H o t B l a c k w h i t e * C 0 m ______ where black & white singles are looking for lovers to share interracial lifestyle with…. :D

    • Mike

      Minimal talent, and apparently doesn’t know how to handle life. Sad story, but hard to feel bad.

    • ;;;”’

      GET A LIFE U IMBECILE.

    • Missy

      She is a selfish person, gossip comes out about her. (which is likely true) and she tries to kill herself and leave her young daughter without a mom. SELFISH B!TCH.

    • Lynn

      Total trailer park trash. No idea how she won Idol – she can’t even speak w/o a lisp! I can’t stand her – NASTY!

    • Jamie

      Let the HATE begin.

    • chris

    • nikki

      shes trash what is you everyboby makes mistake and evry woman falls for the bs man tell us and hope its the truth but nothing is the truth anymore.

  • TorontoTom

    I can’t help but see a lifetime of tragedy and misfortune for this talented but sad girl.

    • fgh

      Actually this is for the sequel

  • Jan

    It’s a shame that someone’s life is so empty that they feel the need to cruelly and anonymously bash on a celebrity so obviously in pain. Fantasia is a very talented singer. Hope she is doing better soon.

    • Tony

      Oh lighten up, it was aspirin, and she didn’t have to sleep with a married guy, I’m sure she’ll be fine.

  • Jeannette

    Slezak must be flipping out about now.

    • BJohnson

      That’s exactly what I thought. Get better Fantasia.

      • Sarah

        Exactly what i was thinking too. Either that or he passed out. Never understood his intense love for her.

  • McProphet

    Awww Cousin Tay Tay… not only were you the one of the most worthless Idols, but you couldn’t even OD the right way… I mean really, aspirin and melatonin? At least MJ had access to the hard stuff. Sigh. At least this way we don’t have to give her an underserving Grammy a la Heath Ledger style.

    • tvgirl48

      Heath Ledger – “undeserving”? Lol.

      • Testosterone

        I know what you mean. Giving that Oscar to Heath Ledger was a total waste. It was totally a sentimental win for a poor acting job on a role played better by at least 37 other actors.

    • uidiot

      @testosterone your an idiot and so is McPropet.
      Ledger did a great job and more people feel that way then you two idiots. The two of you are worthless no respect for the ones that have passed, simple idiots!!

      • Shamrocky

        Just because someone has passed does not mean they deserve awards. Unless, of course, they truly DID deserve one. I agree with Testosterone, and BTW – that would be “you’re” not your an idiot.

  • kate

    McProphet, please come back after your heart transplant. It seems you’ve lost yours. Maybe you could at leat pretend to have some compassion for people other than yourself.

    • Marci

      Well said.

      • Sagi

        I had no idea how to approach this bfoere—now I’m locked and loaded.

  • misstmore

    It’s so sad that people have to say ugly things about others. It just shows the darkness of their hearts.

  • Picu

    I hope she gets well soon. I also hope she insists on hanging out with only great friends and family members.

  • jfms777

    Wendy Williams suggested that she did
    do what she denied doing. And now she
    overdoses? Hmmmm . . .

  • claudenorth

    Her manager used the magic words, ‘exhausted’ and ‘dehydrated’, so you know we’re not getting the whole story.

  • Barry

    Slut tried to kill herself. Better luck next time.

  • ihatefanboys

    i dont get the celebrity “im depressed cuz im famous” or “im depressed cuz im NOT famous enuf even tho i have a fancy name like fantasia” …shes a nobody, prob finally realized it..who cares..get a shrink like every other hollywood retard that thinks theyre soooo special that they think if they try to off themselves that anyone beyond the gossip section will care, guess what ? we dont. next itll be ruben but he’ll just try to eat himself to death….watch, itll happen . lol..yes im cruel but im honest..deal with it

    • Anna Cooper

      If you have a Bible, please read St. John 8:1-11, “v7,Jesus said, he that is without sin, let him cast the first stone at her. Her acusers left, one by one.” Also read Romans 3:23,”For all have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD.”

      • Anna Cooper

        GOD DIDN’T MAKE TRASH, WE ARE ALL THE SAME IN HIS SIGHT. THERE WILL BE NO SEGREGATION IN HEAVEN.

  • Tibby

    Is she related to Whitney?

  • Victor Eloy

    that fantasia is a homewreker, a whore who destroyed a marriage…I really hope SOCIAL SERVICES TAKE that girl away from this black trash so that can help her becoming a slut like her mom….
    she only won idol cos everybody felt sorry for her…she is a disgusting n.i.g.g.e.r

    • Marcus

      If you have children, I hope they’re taken away from you before you have the chance to brainwash them into being racists with poor English skills.

      • Donna

        FTW!!!

      • jury’s out

        Good one!!!

  • Victor Eloy

    first of all she is not a celebrity, she had her 15 minutes back in 2004 when she won ideol
    second, u can’t even compared this TRASH to Heath Ledger….
    third and final thank God she didnt die, now she will have to face the public humilliation and the posibility of losing all she owns for being an iliterate and selfish nasty n.i.g.g.e.r

    • Donna

      Just reported your racist (and illiterate) posts. Not only are you an ignorant fool, you can’t spell and you don’t know the basic rules of grammar that we all learned in first grade. Pathetic.

    • RMB

      You are racist and ignorant, Victor Elroy. r.a.c.i.s.t & i.g.n.o.r.a.n.t.
