According to TV station WCNC in Charlotte, R&B singer Fantasia Barrino has been hospitalized after a drug overdose. The 26-year-old was taken to Carolinas Medical Center-Pineville  last night and was treated for a “medication overdose.”

Last week the singer was  named by a woman named Paula Cook  in a lawsuit for being responsible for the break up of a marriage.Fantasia’s representative released a statement stating that Barrino is “overwhelmed by the lawsuit and the media attention” after being criticized for her relationship with a married North Carolina man named Antwaun Cook.

“Last night, Fantasia was hospitalized. She took an overdose of aspirin and a sleep aid. Her injuries are not life threatening. She was dehydrated and exhausted at the time. Fantasia is stable now. She will be released from the hospital soon.”

In the divorce petition,  Paula Cook named Fantasia ‘s “adulterous affair” with her husband as the reason for the breakup of their marriage. Cook also claims that Barrino has told her in a phone conversation “”He don’t want you. Maybe the next time that you get a husband you’ll know how to keep him. That’s why he is here with me.”

When I think of Fantasia I think of someone that has been an inspiration for millions of girls and women around the world. Her struggle with life  is one that a lot of woman can relate. With every negative situation she is  faced with she bounces back and stays positive.  I pray that this will be no different and she will continue to inspire others going through similar situations. After all that she has been through in her life…I hope that she can find peace and happiness.
