Mandisa made a name for herself on 'American Idol,' displaying her incredible voice and proud faith, something that guided her through a difficult life and career.
The death of 'American Idol' alum Mandisa has left family, friends and fans devastated as an investigation is underway. Authorities are 'conducting an active death investigation stemming from a body that was discovered Thursday evening at a residence,' Franklin Police Department Public Information manager Max Wintz told Fox News Digital last week.
In her interview with CBN, she spoke about the origins of her turning to food for comfort following her parents’ separation and her father moving away. 'As a child I started to wonder if it was my fault,' Mandisa told the outlet. 'Did I do something that made Dad leave? I was only 2 years old, but as I grew up, I just started questioning that sort of thing. I started feeling like I had to perform in order to warrant his love.
When that happened at 16, it was like a floodgate opened. I started to eat and eat and eat. I think I was sort of shielding myself off from anybody else that could harm me,' she said. Mandisa did not elaborate on the incident, but CBN wrote that she was able to forgive her rapist. Reflecting on the nature of forgiveness and the Cowell moment on 'Good Morning America' in 2022, Mandisa said, 'It’s really more for the person forgiving than the person being forgiven.
