I understand your point, it's just not a good one. So she's not THE most successful winner. She's still outsold all but five other finalists. Someone with a platinum album, gold album, a book, an appearance on Broadway, a reality show, and a starring role in an upcoming film is obviously not putting all their eggs in one basket.
That's advice you would give to a 16 year old who is auditioning for American Idol, not somebody who won.

The whole point of my original comment and then the comment about ITT was that she won't have her voice forever. Someone new is going to come around and Fantasia will be history.
IMO Fantasia will not be a blip on the music radar 5-10 years from now. Fantasia's voice is not unique.
I just don't think people, especially musicians and actors, should put all their eggs in one basket, because eventually that basket will dry up. The whole point was that she needs a back-up plan.
But then again, if she really cared about her future beyond music or even considered a future beyond music, she wouldn't have taken 9 years to get a GED. But that is just my opinion.
