Fantasia Barrino is under a self-imposed lockdown -- after she received a threatening letter. It all started last night at the Pantages Theater in L.A. -- Fantasia was reading her fan mail after a performance of "The Color Purple." She became alarmed over a disturbing letter loaded with racial slurs -- including the n-word -- and a line that read, "go back where you came from and die."
The person who wrote the letter claims he used to work as a security guard for Fox while Fantasia was on "A.I." Fantasia's manager said the singer immediately contacted theater security -- which then contacted the LAPD. In the meantime, the theater has "beefed up" security around Fantasia -- and all over the venue -- and will be screening anything sent to Barrino's dressing room before it gets to her.
My daughter went to see the performance with her school and I must say she had nothing but rave reviews for Fantasia's performance...
