Fantasia Barrino was named in a lawsuit earlier this week when a North Carolina woman accused Barrino of not only having an affair with her husband but of also making a sex tape with the married man! And unfortunately for Fantasia, North Carolina is one of the few states which enforces an "alienation of affection" law, which means Fantasia could pay for her sins -- possibly to the tune of $2 million as one such "other woman" was forced to pay in 2001.

The news hit websites like Betty Confidential over the weekend, where it was reported that Barrino began having an affair with married-man Atwaun Cook, in August 2009 when they met at the T-Mobile store where he works.

His wife, Paula Cook claims the two "recorded their illicit activity."

If that's the case, sounds like the courts would have more than enough evidence!

Fantasia recently released her new video for Bittersweet, in which she can be seen getting hot and heavy with a model on camera!



Fantasia Barrino's manager, Brian Dickens, released the following statement:

    "Fantasia will weather this storm with the dignity and grace that she has exemplified throughout a life in which she has repeatedly overcome obstacles and challenges. Fantasia's faith in God, herself and family remain as strong as ever."
