R&B singer and actress Fantasia just enrolled at Central State University, an HBCU, in Wilberforce, OH. to study business.
She told People why she took this major step,
“I'm a businesswoman now and I desire to continue to sharpen my sword and better my craft.” “I want to break generational curses. When it comes to my family, my girls, my children, I want to show them that no matter what she's been through, you can always get back and go after it again, and that's what I am doing."
"I want to be the example, I want to use my platform, my social media, to show people — men, women, Black, white, young, old — that if you have a dream, it doesn't have to have a timeline," she explains. "It doesn't have to look a certain way and, in fact, looks better when it has a bunch of bruises and scars because that means you fought for it."
Fantasia also announced the news on Instagram:
PSA: I AM OFFICIALLY ENROLLED AS A STUDENT @centralstate87!!! I want to thank everyone Who was apart of making this happen for me and working with my busy schedule.
