Absolutely! Fantasia, at her core, is a fine singer. She doesn't need to ham it up the way she did tonight. This was amateur stuff. For anybody that had never heard her sing before, they're probably scratching their heads wondering how she won. "Act ugly" indeed.
Yes, she sure is. And she seems like a very nice, down-to-earth person, as well. Unfortunately, the so-called black urban music genre -- which includes and rap, gangsta rap, modern R&B, hip-hop, etc. -- is the hottest selling category of music these days. I don't know who buys it, but I sure don't.
