Fantasia Barrino wants to duet with Prince

Don't know if this has been posted, but I found this on MTV.com :

Q: Is there anyone in particular you want to work with?

Barrino: I have to say Aretha Franklin. I would love to do a song with her 'cause she is my girl. I want to do a song with a lot of people, even Prince. If I can find him. He is on the go. Slow down so I can do a song with you, Prince!

Now, I'll say that I doubt this would ever happen, but I'd bet it'd sound pretty good if it did.
If I want your opinion, I'll beat it outta ya!

Fantasia was my favorite from the beginning - and now I see she has excellent taste in music too!

I'd love to see this happen. It would be great to see them together. Fantasia does have good taste but I always had a feeling that she did.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Fantasia has an amazingly nasty, annoying voice and I would bet that Prince has no interest whatsoever her. Her voice is a poor imitation of Patti LaBelle. Her rendition of "All My Life" was the most horrible, worst cover I've ever heard. She RUINED the song.

God, think about it...how many other real singers out there admire Prince and are dying to do a duet w/ him?

Prince would benefit from doing a duet w/ Fantasia?! Puhlease!!! Musicology is the hottest tour this year. Prince's cd is in the top 10. 20+ years in the music business and he needs to benefit from American Idol?!

What a joke.

What in the hell are all of you sheople smoking?! Just because Fantasia won American Idol, you're on her nuts now?

Even if Prince were to pick any of the A.I. contestants, it would be Latoya first, and NOT Fantasia. At least Latoya has both the looks and talent.

That song was ruined when it hit the radio, god that song is awful..it was nice on the first listen but All My Life got played EVERy single day..it is not on my list of most hated songs right under Boys II Men "End Of The Road" and "One Sweet Day".


Anyway, even if she DOES work with prince..it will just be under the vaults just like his work with Bonnie, Lenny, Christina Agulera...maybe even Anita? .. hey..

Fantasia has a voice like Macy Gray (Grey) and at one of the Celebration Prince had her there to perform. So, Yes Prince would dig her for here uniqueness.

Prince just might score his number 1 single of the new millenium if he sings a duet with fan-friendly American Idol winner Fantasia!!

biggrin Prince should take her up on that. It would sound great, As long as it didn't just rot away in the vault. neutral But I always thought she was cool. Definitely My favorite 'Idol' so far. nod

With all the female singers out there Prince hasn't worked with (Sade, Janet, Jill Scott, etc) and we talking about an American Idol winner? Why not just reform the NPG with Clay and Ruben while were at it disbelief
