JET might have opted out on Fantasia's new look and image, but Sister 2 Sister magazine made her image work on the just revealed April 2013 issue of the magazine.
With a seemingly perfect magazine cover, Fantasia opens about chasing after Antwaun Cook and why she'll never do that again…
"I think every man gets to a place of knowing that they wanna be faithful and they wanna be good fathers and good husbands and good boyfriends… Things play out for you to say, okay, it’s time for me to man up or it’s time for me to woman up. I think we both have a lot of regrets of how things just happened; it all happened so fast. I just went full-speed ahead and that’s why I was tellin’ you now. I think out everything before I do it. Everything," Fantasia shares with Jamie Foster Brown in an excerpt from the issue.
Adding that they are no longer together and that it's for the best, Fantasia tells Sister 2 Sister "we had to learn to become friends again."
"Me and Antwaun, as of now, we are not together. I think it’s the best thing for us all. We had to learn how to become friends again. There was so much stuff that came out. We were all hurt along the way. There’s trust issues. There’s just a lot of stuff that kinda got put in the mix," said Fantasia. "And I, at one point, I wanted to make everybody else happy. To love him, to make sure Zion was okay, to make sure everything—but I had to get to a place where I had to learn how to love Fantasia. I never did that, Jamie. And if I don’t love myself, then I can’t be in a relationship."
Fantasia is due to release the anticipated album, "Side Effects of You," in April.
