Just days ago, Fantasia vented on Twitter to defend herself after gossip site, Media Take Out sparked rumored reports that she may have gotten a nose job after she posted photos of herself in a cropped top. They also commented on her recent weight loss.

Fantasia replied that her nose came directly from her parents and also said she's on a serious wellness plan:

MTO stated I had a nose job but once again the lies keep coming. This time I brushed it off but wanted to say I am a TRUE black woman with great feature[s] thanks to my mother & dad.  This isn’t just for my IG family but for ALL the media.

I am on a serious wellness plan & everything is steadily changing! So don’t stroke ME & THEN in the same sentence you attempt to tear ME down.
