Fantasia has been going strong with promoting her new album Side Effects of You with releasing the leading single "Lose To Win" & the follow up single "Without Me" featuring Kelly Rowland & Missy Elliott. Now as another form of promotion she is beautifully gracing Upscale magazine, in the May issue she speaks openly about her past struggles that have been played out in the public eye.
Read excerpts from the interview below.
On being open and honest:
"Everything that I've talked about and put out there, it's helped someone. It might not have helped the person who had something smart to say or had a joke or whatever, but there's 10 other people that's inspired by my story. So I wouldn't change anything. I'm just going to continue to be that person that is open and honest because that's me, that's Fantasia."
On loving herself:
"The first thing I want is peace, peace of mind. Being able to be comfortable in my own skin, being able to say 'this is what I want to do' instead of trying to please everybody else."
On people relating to her:
"The things that I go through, people go through everyday. I've had some rough times and some moments that I wouldn't say I'm very proud of, but I can say that for me, I'm glad that I was able to let it out. I believe that's when we become not real, that's when we become fake—when we try to make things look like it's just so perfect."
