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.

What happens when a single girl engages in irresponsible unprotected sex? She gets pregnant. This then adds to the epidemic of single-parent households, which breed more problems to the community.
What are we doing about this?
We congratulate the female participant getting pregnant.
We congratulate the male participant for siring a child. Some of those same clowns have several illegitimite children by different girls.
Now Jill Scott is doing her thing, announcing this to the world and is contributing to this ever-growing problem.
If the soon-to-be-inaugurated President-Elect Obabma wasn’t the Uncle Tom of Planned Parenthood, maybe he would’ve made plans to give Ms.Scott a medal.
With that said, I will give Ms.Scott credit for not aborting an innocent baby. Life is precious and I do wish the best for her child.
wow thats cool i hope itz everythang u want have fun with tha honeymoon!!1
I’m happy for her finally she is going to be happy. My baby is going to be one on the 30th of April and I was happiness that you can’t explain.
Congratulations to Jill Scott on her new baby. Don’t work too hard girl.

Congratulations Ms.Jill on your little gift from God we all knew you been through alot back in the day with your (EX),but it don’t matter look at how much god had your back,so live life as he give to you ok love your music very much.
