Fantasia Barrino hospitalized for drug overdose, possible suicide attempt?


Tmz.com has just reported that season 3 Idol champ, Fantasia Barrino, has just been hospitalized after overdosing on a mixture of aspirin and sleeping medication. Barrino's manager has explained that she is in stable condition and appears to just be suffering from dehydration and exhaustion.

Fantasia's overdose and possible suicide attempt came days after she made news for allegedly starring in a sex tape with married man, Antwaun Cook. This scandal has been blamed for causing Fantasia much distress and triggering her overdose.

Could Anzeo David Be Another "Plant" For Season 9 of American Idol?


I previously reported my speculation of Nicci Nix being this coming season of American Idol's "Plant" contestant. However, after seeing Votefortheworst.com's post about Anzeo David, lead me to believe that he, too, could be another "plant". David is a very talented R&B/Hip-hop artist. He has a strong potential of being highly featured and publicized on American Idol because there typically are not many strong R&B/Hip-hop artists on the show, other than the usual black divas like Fantasia Barrino. David also already has a lot of experience and musical connections. He has worked with Missy Elliot, Trey Songz, Destiny's Child, Timbaland, and many others. In addition, he was on Season 4 of Making the Band, but was cut after round one.

I think Anzeo David has large potential to prosper on this season of Idol, however, I don't see him as being a winner. Top 5? A definite possiblity. Keep your eyes opened for this potential Hollywood-round contestant!
