LOS ANGELES, May 31 (UPI) -- Fantasia Barrino, "American Idol's" new star, may not be going to Disneyland now that she won, but the 19-year-old wants to take her child to the Disney Store.

"I'm going to take my baby to the Disney Store (and) I'm going to tell her to pick whatever she wants in every color," Barrino told Access Hollywood when asked what she would do when she returned home to High Point, N.C., the newsmagazine reported Monday at its Web site.

Barrino, a single mom to a 2-year-old daughter, plans to squeeze in a trip home while in the midst of a whirlwind media tour that has included "The Tonight Show," "Regis and Kelly," MTV's "TRL" and CBS' "Early Show."

As the winner of Fox TV's "American Idol," Barrino has won a million dollar recording contract and a new car.
