American Idol winner Fantasia Barrino has denied reports she's expecting her second child. The 23-year-old fueled speculation she was pregnant after canceling a string of performances in musical "The Color Purple" on Broadway earlier this year.

Atlanta, Georgia-based rapper Young Dro, real name D'Juan Hart, was rumored to be the father of the child. But Barrino's spokesperson says, "Fantasia is not pregnant and the internet rumors are entirely untrue."

The representative adds, "It is true that she has missed some performances because she has gotten sick from time to time over the nine months, but doing eight shows a week is a lot so she missed a few."

Barrino has a six-year-old daughter called Zion.
