Charlotte’s American Idol : Move On Me

January 12th, 2010 categories: Great Neighborhoods, Real Estate News

While it’s true Charlotte’s Piper Glen is notable for its fantastic TPC golf course and gorgeous homes it’s also home to Fantasia Barino of American Idol fame! Even if you’re not a smitten fan of American idol you’re sure to remember when Fantasia exploded on the scene with her sultry, steamy and sweet rendition of “summertime” (watch right here) Gershwin was smiling….

Fantasia is once again making news here in Charlotte – see the (always excellent) Mark Washburn’s story Fantasia’s Next Act in the Charlotte Observer. Fantasia a platinum recording superstar is on the verge of a comeback or maybe a rebirth. Like so many of her neighbors in the Piper Glen and Elm Lane area (she has two million dollar plus homes) Fantasia has run into a foreclosure scenario of her own – but things look to be on the mend and she is ready to soar again! As a fellow Charlottean I wish her all the best!

Let’s hope that Fantasia’s good fortunes are a harbinger of good things to come for her Charlotte neighbors too. Be sure to look for Fantasia’s new album and single “Move on me” and check out her new VH1 reality series Fantasia for Real be sure to look for scenes of southeast Charlotte maybe even a siting at the Highway 51 Waffle House a fav hangout of Fantasia — I know I saw here there….in summertime!
