Fantasia overdoses
Former “American Idol” winner and VH1 reality star Fantasia Barrino is in stable condition in a North Carolina hospital after overdosing Monday night on “aspirin and a sleep aid,” her manager said yesterday.
“Her injuries are not life-threatening. She was dehydrated and exhausted at the time,” Barrino’s manager, Brian Dickens, said in a statement.
Barrino, who stars in VH1’s “Fantasia For Real,” was recently accused by a woman named Paula Cook of having an affair with her husband, Antwaun Cook.
Barrino was “overwhelmed by the lawsuit and the media attention,” Dickens said.
