'Idol' Success Story

Fantasia Barrino, winner of American Idol 2004, will be highlighted in a Lifetime Television movie Life Is Not a Fairytale: The Fantasia Barrino Story. The movie is structured to tell the success story of Fantasia's rise from rags to riches. It will tell of her impoverished childhood, life as a single teenage mother, and professional and financial success after winning the American Idol reality television show.

Fantasia has released several songs since finishing Idol and is best known for her smash hit Baby Mama (Lyrics).

There are several possible definitions of Baby Mama according to Urban Dictionary, but none of them are particularly positive. The most common usage refers to a single mother who has never married the father, known as Baby Daddy, and is no longer involved with him.

Unfortunately this situation is often a deliberate plan by one party. Her lyrics And I think it should be a holiday For single mothers tryin' to make a way suggest it was Baby Daddy's plan.

Fantasia has made her own way and is an inspiration to many. The movie is scheduled to air in August 2006.
