[@dukes7599]

Shoutout to the interviewer for pouring so much into our Sista!!! We love you Tasia!!!

[@susanrobinson3745]

Yessssssss

[@damonh7526]

This interviewer deserves an award!!! She was phenomenal and poured so much joy and love into Fantasia 🫶🏾

[@cherrydeleon9646]

I agree 👍 💯 🙆‍♀️

[@tr54natural5]

I agree. She is the first interviewer I’ve seen that truly acknowledged how hard Fantasia had to work to get to this point. She acknowledged all the emotion that went along with it. I’m so glad I watched this and wish Fantasia all the best. 💙💙💙

[@susanrobinson3745]

Yessssss

[@thehoneyeffect]

shes come a long long way too, i remember seeing her in freemans catalogue in the UK in the 80s as a model, when there was v little representation

[@Sifaberry]

@damonh7526You absolutely hit it on the nail! Thank you for your keen observation/comment.

[@chiqtheequeen]

When was she not famous? Fantasia stays in rotation on Black radio, TV and awards season. She's a national treasure.

[@Clacci38]

Not in the mainstream “white media “. She has always shown up for us.

[@successfulon3320]

Her voice is so unique she is in her own lane. I love her humble resilient spirit.

[@Lenasevilla-yb4ei]

Just black radio is not famous

[@cupcakeandtiffysgachaworld3332]

Exactly. She has been our star ⭐️ that never faded since AI

[@intentionalhome]

Ikr I was like when she loose it my girl always a star

[@TJ-nm3rw]

I hope Fantasia wins an Oscar.

[@Morales705]

I love Fantasia. Her journey is nothing but a miracle from God. This is proof that we cannot allow the world to define success or who deserves a seat at the table

[@deandrejones8701]

Say that now!!!

[@Boobalopbop]

I know one thing, Fantasia doesn’t age. She looks exactly the same as she did on American Idol. She looks like a glammed up version of that girl.

[@zaragray6199]

Yep

[@greenbyrdd8308]

Yup. Just as pretty as she can be!

[@josephjohnson3641]

I hope she’s wins a Oscar

[@Sonji531]

Fantasia is like the girl from your neighborhood that everyone loves. She's so humble.

[@j.dawson842]

She deserves it all! Love you Fantasia

[@realshaho3180]

This interviewer has such a beautiful spirit. Many blessings and much love to her ❤️❤️❤️

[@upclose22]

Truly beautiful interview👏👏👏👏 So proud of Fantasia as she definitely deserves every accolade she receives… The interviewer almost made me cry too 🥰👏👏👏 Great job

[@littlelightomine]

Fantasia, you deserve EVERYTHING AND MORE!❤🎉

[@risspearl9439]

Made you cry?? You are stronger than me then 😅😅 I'm a mess here, crying like someone died 😂😂. It was a very emotional interview, and I'm very happy for her. She deserves all the wins!

[@b2j924]

I'm in tears watching this interview, I can just imagine what's gonna happen when I see the movie. It's truly fantasia's time.

[@djm2985]

I'm so proud of Fantasia she is still the same humble person she was when she won Idol decades ago. God bless her. I wish the camera panned to the singing though!!!! Wow...lol

[@lifecoachthirl]

I love this interview. It exudes so much love in a short period of time.❤ I hope she wins an Oscar.

[@Scoutbq1l]

It's not a "Second chance at fame" Fantasia IS famous and very successful, especially in the Black community. She's simply working on a new project. She never needed a 'second chance'. She's always been great.

[@LaRennEstherTV1985]

She is mainly taking about management and financial responsibility..

[@joshuamcdowell9745]

She was very overlooked. I always thought Fantasia had a nice steady career.

[@michaelmaps2004]

You are right. To us she never left but then I understand that she hasn't been in a major spotlight although she's been doing her thing all along

[@cassd4492]

I was just about to say this. Exactly right!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@obibraxton2232]

Exactly! Odd phrasing but Tasia has always been a STAR. Just more people seeing it.

[@franciscoresto7707]

Fantasia is the truth! Oscar

[@KamTheeKilla]

This by far one of the BEST, most sincere/genuine interviews I have ever watched. It's the way how she conducted the interview with warmth and love. You can tell she wants Fantasia to win because she is a fan of hers. She asked all the right questions! THIS TIME the fame for Mrs. Taylor will be different. She is in her era and season. It's time to see more of Fantasia and I am here for it!! Especially from being N. Carolinian and her family lives 10 minutes from me. I can't watch the movie with her family on Christmas Day!

[@kimmievee657]

Y’all aren’t picking it up - the interviewer is Terri Seymour - she was dating Simon Cowell when Fantasia won American Idol… she knew her then and has seen her whole journey. That love was real.

[@SugarsugarFruity-hz6lz]

Yea I was really impressed I mean especially coming from Extra TV they're usually highly superficial and all but THIS really proved me wrong that maybe some of those interviews are ACTUALLY real, genuine, authentic and extremely caring human beings. I've never once seen a "real" interview on here. It's actually my first time really seeing an interviewer to go out of her way to make the other person they're interviewing feel good. This was a really beautiful interview. Really didn't expect that wow!😊

[@SOI-wl2lo]

This interaction is SO beautiful and SO pure. Lord I pray she gets the Oscar 😩💛

[@calvinhaskett8712]

She can be very sexy too. 8 earrings . boy ain't she sexy. the husband is a lucky dude ...

[@allanasmith334]

Every time I hear Fantasia speaks I just tear up every time. The interviewer use to date Simon at the time when Fantasia won AI so she knows her since she was a kid that's where all that emotions is coming from. Im so proud of Fantasia and prayer for an Oscar and Golden Globe for her. That acceptance speech will be like no other. 🙏

[@theoracle888]

Fantasia has consistently remained so humble over all these years, such a beautiful spirit ❤

[@meemeepalmer4144]

Fantasia is Back with a vengeance!!!!! She deserves an Oscar!!!👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🔥💯💯

[@deandrejones8701]

Been supporting Fantasia since American idol..supporting her music and all of her projects. This made me cry to see her win again. I'm so happy for this sista after what's she's been through. She is walking in her glory right now.

[@chocolateccm1493]

Fantasia is such a rarity-she’s authentically beautiful and real about her journey! She deserves every single acknowledgment.

[@meemeepalmer4144]

😭😭😭she is so humble and so deserving of all her achievements!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@AirOnTheAir]

Ugh! She’s such a beautiful soul! Keep being a light girl!💛🫶🏾🥹😭

[@tiffanypatterson]

I love Fantasia ❤ It’s her time!

[@mildredmcdonald1929]

I have been riding with the beauty since she won American idol. I’m so proud of her. She works so hard and she deserves all her flowers 🌸 ❤

[@SGzCMH]

Fantasia is STUNNING and I L❤️VE all her fashions she is serving and KILLING it!!!!! 💖🤩😍😊

[@lisacox306]

When Terri was dating Simon Cowell during Fantasia's IDOL season, she interviewed the contestants every week. Nice Reunion Extra.

[@theresabell2492]

Fantasia is so under rated and so talented Gob bless her and her family ❤❤❤❤

[@bettybaker683]

I’m so happy for her. Such great talent ❤❤❤

This is so uplifting and emotional at the same time fantasia you got this Queen keep soaring keep on reigning like the rare gem

[@Morales705]

I was blessed to have seen her on Broadway in The Color Purple… she was phenomenal & stole the shoe… no one else can play that role

[@bbwalk100]

I also saw Fantasia, in New York City.

[@Greegree99]

2nd chance at fame!! Sis is an icon is the black community… in my household!! 👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️

[@kesbutterfly3928]

2nd chance?! She already has game boo. She's been out here PERIODT!!!!

[@lexgraham2118]

NAH. SHE'S INDEPENDENT AND HASNT SOLD ANY RECORDS IN 10 YRS. SHE HAS 1 GRAMMY FROM 2011. HASNT PUT OUT NEW MUSIC IN 4 YEARS. FANTASIA'S TALENTS ARE LEGENDARY BUT SHES GONE UNSUNG FOR THE MAJORITY OF HER 20 YR. CAREER.

[@mosaicartwmichaelmonreaux1911]

@@lexgraham2118well 4yrs isnt that extensive and 1 Grammy is more than a lot of others. However I feel she a has a core fan base that will keep her feed. The main stream success is validating but isn’t required for her to thrive.

[@lexgraham2118]

@@mosaicartwmichaelmonreaux1911 KEEP UP. THE REPORTER SAID 2ND CHANCE AT FAME. THE POST I RESPONDED TO FELT OPPOSITE. THE REPORTER IS CORRECT. HER CAREER HAS BEEN FLOUNDERING FOR YEARS. WITH EACH RELEASE HER SALES HAVE GONE DOWN. AND YES YOU DO NEED MAINSTREAM SUCCESS TO THRIVE IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS, ESPECIALLY GIVEN HER ELEMENTS. IF THIS MOVIE LANDS AND SHE'S WELL RECIEVED IT COULD BE A REINTRODUCTION TO THE MASSES ON JUST WHAT TYPE OF TALENT SHE IS. SHE WON IDOL 20 YRS AGO. THATS A GENERATION. WHEN SHE WON THAT SINGULAR GRAMMY FOR HER WHOLE 20 YR CAREER SHE DID NOT ATTEND THE SHOW BECAUSE SHE WAS ASHAMED AND THOUGHT SHE WOULD BE JUDGED FOR HER RECENT SUICIDE ATTEMPT. AT THAT TIME NOBODY SPOKE ON "MENTAL HEALTH" SHE WAS MOCKED AND MADE A FOOL OF. IT WAS A COMPLETE DIFFERENT TIME SO YES, SHE NEEDS THIS. SHE WON IDOL AT 19, TURNING 40 SOON.

[@lexgraham2118]

@@justmichelle1966 I GAVE YOU NUANCE AND CONTEXT. SHE HAS NOT TOURED ON A NATIONAL LEVEL. SHE DOES NOT PUT OUT MUSIC CONSISTENTLY BECAUSE IT HASNT SOLD. THATS Y SHE'S INDEPENDENT. BECAUSE SHE'S SUCH AN AMAZING LIVE PERFORMER SHE HAS BEEN ABLE TO SUSTAIN HERSELF. LIKE I SAID I HOPE SHE CAN USE THIS AS A SPRINGBOARD REINTRODUCTION BECAUSE HER CAREER HAS BEEN STAGNANT FOR OVER 10 YRS.
