Just one month after telling “Good Morning America” host Robin Roberts, “I always take a licking and keep on ticking,” referring to her August 9th suicide attempt, Fantasia Barrino is preparing to do what she loves best. The Grammy-nominated singer announced her first headlining tour, named after her third studio album, “Back to Me.” Fantasia will share the spotlight with singers Eric Benet and Kandi — formerly of the group Xscape and reality star of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta.” The thirty-city tour kicks off on Friday, November 4 in Richmond, Virginia and wraps up on Saturday, January 1 in St. Louis, Missouri.
