ENTERTAINMENT: Jill Scott is Pregnant; Fantasia Keeps Her Home
January 13th, 2009
Jill Scott is Pregnant
R&B singer/actress Jill Scott is pregnant with her first child. She revealed the news to reporters at the Television Critics Association conference in Los Angeles on Friday, People magazine reports. “The first trimester I spent in Botswana,” said Scott, who is due April 25. “That was one of the biggest challenges of my life. First trimester! You’re sick every morning. It was seven hours time difference, the heat, the bugs, the 14 hour days.” Scott said she discovered that she was pregnant just before leaving for Botswana where she filmed the show. The three-time Grammy Award winner, who is engaged to drummer Lil’ John Roberts, says she’s glad she went through with the plans to film. “My doctors gave me a clean bill of health and said you can do this, so I did it,” said Scott, 36.
Fantasia’s N.C. Home is Saved
American Idol winner and Broadway star Fantasia Barrino was able to hang onto one of her North Carolina homes, after a last-minute agreement was reached between the mortgage company and the singer’s representatives, People magazine reports. The details of the arrangement were not disclosed. The million-dollar, Charlotte-area home would have hit the auction block Monday, to be sold by the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office. The money would have been used to compensate Broward Energy Partners for the $68,000 loan it advanced Barrino to pay taxes, the magazine reports.

That’s what’s wrong with our people now we don’t respect each other and lift each other up. We have a new black president people get it together. Why on earth would you call this women a tramp David. You sound like a bitter person. You might want to talk to someone regading all that anger you have. She is a beautiful black woman about to have one of the best gifts ever a child RESPECT THAT.
David you are a jerk! I have never blogged in my life. However, your comments gave me more than enough reason. “Who cares if she’s pregnant?” Apparently you do. You cared enough to read the article and leave a message. Get a life!
