Fantasia loses mansion to bank.

Former American Idol singer Fantasia Barrino has allegedly signed her North Carolina mansion to the bank after falling behind on payments.

According to reports the singer gave up her home to avoid foreclosure.

The house, which she had been sharing with her family members and featured on her reality show 'Fantasia', had been on the market since April last year.

“I always want to please everybody, and I want to help everybody and I think that that was draining me – moneywise, mentally. I had to change all of that. I still help people but in a different way. It's not about money," she told people magazine last week.

Despite her personal troubles, the 28-year-old revealed she has a new found confidence and she’s working towards resurrecting her career.

"Everyone was saying how happy they were to see me at this place,” she told People. 

"I think my happiness and peace is now finally showing and so they were all like 'just stay right here,' " Barrino said.

In January, Barrino landed in hot water with fans when she 'seemingly' rallied against same-sex marriage on Instagram.

The singer caused a stir when she posted the comments:  "I Rise ABOVE IT ALL!!! THE WORLD IS GONE MAD. KIDS, THE GOVERNMENT THE church House... Everybody Trying!!!!!!!"

"Its a lot that going on that the Bible speaks about we should Not be doing. Weed legal in some places, Gay Marriage Legal BUT YET IM JUDGED!!! I'm not doing nothing for you... My Life!!!!" she was quoted by BET as saying.

Following backlash from gay rights activists and disapproving fans, the 28-year-old' reps released a statement.

"Comments made by Ms. Barrino through her Instagram account were recently taken far out of context," the rep said in a statement quoted by E! Online.

"Ms. Barrino is not now, nor has she ever been an opponent of the LGBT community. She has supported and performed at numerous events that are sponsored by the LGBT community. Whether it's through a live performance or placement on social media, Ms. Barrino uses every opportunity to reach out and connect with her fans, all of her fans," the rep added.

Barrino is an American singer who started her music career in 2004, when she won the 3rd season of singing competition 'American Idol'.

The mother-of-two has had her fair share of controversies including an alleged suicide attempt in 2010 after she was accused of breaking-up then boyfriend Antwaun Cook' marriage.

Cook and Barrino have a 2-year-old son together named Dallas Xavier.
