Okay, so how much does winning American Idol, tours, album sales and starring in Broadway's The Color Purple pay you? Not enough.
Fantasia Barrino is about to be evicted from one of her two Charlotte, North Carolina, homes.
The 6-bedroom, 6,232 square-foot mansion is set to be auctioned off on Jan.12.
Barrino, a single mother to daughter Zion, purchased the home, located on Bevington Place, in March 2007. The price was $1.3 million.
Her other house, also located in Charlotte, was purchased in July 2004 for $740,000 and records show it's not in financial trouble.
Her recent tune, a duet with Jennifer Hudson called "I'm His Only Woman," was just nominated for a Grammy.
As long as Fantasia gets her stuff out, what's the big deal? Does she even care now that her bisniss is out in the public? Maybe it's bad publicity, but I'd just let my house get foreclosed if I didn't want it no mo. That's just how my work ethic goes.

Here is an idea...don't buy two houses in the same city.

This is what happens when people live above their means. What does she need two mansions for? In the same state, no less! Makes no sense. Hopefully, she will be able to keep her other home.

Doesn't she have financial advisers who tell her she needs to sell one of her homes before she goes broke and loses one? WTF? Two houses in the same state is just greedy.
