Fantasia Barrino will step back on familiar territory when she returns to the ‘American Idol’ stage. Fantasia returns with the third single off her Back to Me album, Collard Greens & Cornbread.
The ‘Idol’ alumnus and one-time Broadway star hit the stage on FOX’s hit competition show Thursday (March 31) perform ‘Collard Greens and Cornbread,’ The latest single of her third album, ‘Back to Me.’ The show will also feature a performance from Jamie Foxx and will.i.am who will sing their song ‘Hot Wings (I Wanna Party),’ off the soundtrack for their upcoming animated film, ‘Rio.’
Fantasia’s wearing a sparkly red dress slit all the way up to the waist, and her hair’s practically blonde, with one big curl in the front sort of a nuevo Etta James look, one that fits the old-school soul sound of the single. It’s one of my favorite songs from Back to Me, and she sings the fire out of it, ending with a spoken “Steven — I love you” directed at Steven Tyler that makes the crowd go nuts.
