MediaTakeOut.com just received some SHOCKING news. American Idol star Fantasia Barrino was ATTACKED two nights ago inside a South Carolina club.

According to one of MediaTakeOut.com's snitches, Fantasia was hired to appear at a popular club where she was supposed to meet and greet fans. Fanny reportedly arrived on time, walked around the club, mingled with fans and signed autographs.

But that wasnt good enough for the promoter. MediaTakeOut.coms snitch explained, The club promoter was expecting more, so he asked [Fantasia] why she was not performing, and she replied Im not getting paid to perform.

Well thats when things went left. Someone then threw a chair at Fanny hitting her in the head. Now we cant say for sure WHO threw the chair. But Fannys security believed that it was the promoter. Cause they beat the SNOT BUBBLES out of dude.

Last we heard, both Fanny and the promoter are expected to make a full recovery.
