Idol Winner Fantasia Barrino's Home in Foreclosure

From US Mag.com....

American Idol's third season winner, Fantasia Barrino, is about to be evicted from one of her two Charlotte, North Carolina, homes -- according to the blog, realestalker.

According to property records, the 6-bedroom mansion has been foreclosed on. Unless the 8-time Grammy-nominated singer can make necessary payments, the 6,232 square-foot home will 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.

"I see one-third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished."
