  • Please

    Hold up, did someone file a report? Was she disturbing the peace? NO leave homegirl alone. Even though this went against the norm. This was done in the name of art…and they HAVE to know this.

    People are F-ing stupid these days. Hurry up meteor the world needs a reboot and fast.

  • always knew

    @slide- LMAO @ your response…

    I like Ms.Badu, I just wish

    she would get her act together…

  • enkogkneegro

    I’m actually offended by women with little flat breasts, big butts and hammah toes that wear beanies and strip in broad daylight……..

  • http://fashionelites.wordpress.com fashionelites

    wow matt and kim did this in time square and they didn’t get fined!!! they did it in front of more ppl then erykah did and it was 2 of them. it’s because she’s black, that’s really why there doing it obviously.

  • Ms.Brilly

    I think this was a bad decision on her part. I get that she was trying to make a statement but there were children out there. Some parents actually try to protect their children from seeing this type of thing out in the street and on tv.

    I understand the desire for spontaneity… but there was a way for her to do this on a closed set or more controlled location.

  • memchee

    should the bother to arrest her?

    peeps on the street didn’t even notice her, nor were they offended.

    It’s been done so many times it’s 10 mins til it’s fully normal behavior.

  • LoriE.

    F tha Police.

  • !!!!!

    IDC IF THEY DO HER PROBLEM NOT MINES LOL.

  • !!!!!

    @MR.GQ
    REAL TALK LOL.

  • Shamekamanes83

    I see some people don’t see past their black a s s e s! This woman was basically saying that people are so afraid to express themselves, be free from their insecurities that they harbor around individuals that are so dry an inhabited that they don’t realize they are robots following the social standard of what society wants them to be!

  • Mock Rock Star

    Hmmmmmmmmmmm, put her a$$ in jail!!! Although I like the song it serves her right…naw, let her stay out…I guess

  • Gimmeabreak78

    @Shamekamanes83

    Your comment is silly. So a person can break any law for the sake of social commentary? By your reasoning, people who want to complain that the food in a restaurant is shytty should be able to d.e.f.e.c.a.t.e on the table to bring the point home.

    C.r.a.s.s.n.e.s.s and art are not the same thing, sweetie. Spare me the argument that people who think public nudity is wrong are repressed.

  • I’m Just Me…Keeping It Real Since: 1983. 17 Days. Bossip is like a big accident…I just can’t look away!!!

    She may pay a fine, at most, but they aren’t going to send her to jail.

    You know the gub’ment is always looking for that almighty dollar!

  • :)

    I don’t think she’s not as dumb or crazy as one would like to believe….You cant get better publicity than this.

    Sure she may believe in what she’s puttin out there, but it won’t hurt her to make some money while she’s at it….

    it is what it is….

  • :)

    excuse the typo but you see what im sayin…

  • The Bear

    There’s a method to her madness.

    Well… Positive or Negative she certainly has everyone’s attention now. aND CLEARLY THAT WAS THE PURPOSE!

  • The Bear

    That being said, I must add….

    Her booty is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

    And I LOVE her walk. Black women are the bomb.

  • http://perryone779@yahoo,com rose by any other name # 9304026339482056536 ™

    Black women are damn sure the bomb and that walk only a black woman can do! White women get the he** on somewhere!!

  • GET REAL

    I hope they do charge her. Nobody was checking for her a week ago. I knew she was desperate for some airplay when she recorded a song with lil wayne. I will never forget Wanda from the morning show Frank & Wanda in Atl saying that she was interviewing Erica. Well when they talked off air Erica was full of self pitty saying, “Y’all don’t love me no more, black radio show me no love” This was about 6yrs ago. Well missy poo, this is not the way to find love.

    @ Dominion….well that isn’t art, but it’s outside the realm of public and moral law. All in all, crappy analogy. Try again.

    Public nudity =/= murder

  • me

    I’d handcuff baby girl, I can’t lie…
    but still ,I must reiterate f the police!!!

    You are no one.

    @@@ Lindsey Gregory

    Judging by that god awful picture of yourself, you are but a primate.

    So being a no-one is still one step up the food chain, from you, Lindsey Gregory.

    But I am tired of toying with you, you bore me and you make it much to easy.

    So I will leave you, to swing joyously from the trees.

  • Dominion Needs To Crack Open a Science Book

    @Dominion

    I know you are trying to insult Lindsey by calling her a primate, but here’s a newsflash– A primate is any omnivorous mammal who lives in complex social groups, has foward-facing eyes, and opposable thumbs. Human beings are all primates, so if Lindsey Gregory is one, so are you genius.

    You are Dominion.

    By doing what, taking off her close?

    Can’t any skank/prostitute do the same by just putting a sound track behind it.

    Why is it that when women want to prove a point, it almost always involves taking off their clothes?

    As a woman if you really want to do something positive and different, try discovering a cure for a major disease, how about that for making a statement.

    Any skank can take off her cloths, as a matter of fact, that’s all women seem to be doing these days and calling it art.

    Please only fools would conceive this to be anything other than what it is.

  • smittyt

    Alot of women turn to sleaze once they,re talent runs out, and everyone knows that,s true,and she do look like a crack head,i never liked her music any way, she can,t sing a note she just talk like she,s about to fall asleep,the music business stink.

  • Did you listen

    THE TRACK IS HOT!! That caught my attention way before she took off her clothes. Hopefully this cd isnt last her last few. One good song and the rest is garbage. ERYKAH GOT BALLS THO. BET BEY CANT TOP THAT (I hate when people put Beyonce in something that has nothing to do with her but I felt the need to do it this time!! )

  • YAWNNNN for her!!

    She has to sell records, and taking clothes off seems to be the way to go these days. She truly can’t sing worth a d.a.m.n., she’s just talking smooth over some tracks, just like all her other music. YAWNNNN for her!!

    Question – what statement does 3 three kids, 3 babies’ daddies make?

    Badu gets a FAIL for her gimmicks!

  • http://daxgamer.com/ Gamer

    I dont see the reason for all the fuss

  • MISDEMEANOR

    SOMEBODY PLEASE CALL TYRONE!!!

  • Unbought_and_Unafraid

    there were CHILDREN present on a city street, in broad daylight.

    i don’t give an “ish” what grown people do — but she has NO right to decide at what age somebody else’s kid is introduced to sexuality.

    some of the people making excuses for her, would beat the hell out of my old a— (and RIGHTLY SO) if i pulled that stunt in front of a kid of THEIRS.

  • LocalResident

    Somebody please call Tyrone… to come get this crazy bish.

  • bishop

    Ballz!

  • http://nautysgirl@yahoo.com bklynlady

    But dirty rabies looking Gaga bertch can walk thru the airport and fly on planes with her bare arse out? We (black people) just can’t win…I do feel like E took it to far but lets play fair.

  • Lodi, NJ

    Im surprised she didn’t get permission or just rent two blocks of empty space with some actors. Well, she does like to shock.

  • honeybun

    she is getting charge because she was suppose to get a permit like madonna, alanis and the
    rest of the people who did before her. but it depends on the state too.

  • peter illyich

    @yoda

    yeah sure !! We believe you.

  • Sharie

    I enjoyed it!!! Dayum Erykah, didn’t know u was holding like that….

  • nyob

    Fear of the black woman’s body. That’s what that’s all this is. We know what happened when Janet showed a bit of tittie and this woman showed her whole body, Good Lord. Stop everything!!!!!!

    GTFHOH.

  • kim

    @Gimmeabreak78
    You are not exactly covered up in your pic…

  • Gimmeabreak78

    @kim

    For your information, I’m wearing a floor length dress, not that it matters. I know you know good and well that there is a huge difference between cleavage and full 360 degree nudity on a public street. You attempt to pick up a twig and call it a tree is silly.

    @Sharie

    In which country is public nudity when everyone else is fully dressed no big deal?

  • Gimmeabreak78

    @Kim

    Let me get this straight–a low cut dress and full nudity are one and the same to you?

    I’m not being hypocritcal. No one in their right mind is going to say that a low-cut blouse, or a miniskirt, and 100% nudity are the same thing. The fact that you are even trying to make that paper-thin argument is telling. That’s like saying a water gun and an Uzi are the same thing. Everyone knows they aren’t, but you would claim they are.

    Out of curiosity, when you go to a public beach, do you just ditch the bikini and just bring on the full frontal in front of the families with children present?

  • Candid Canuck

    911 is a joke.

  • hardboy

    Don’t like it? DON’T LOOK!

  • Mr.uPPeR CuTTs

    Erica Badu got a PHAT A$$. I likes alot….

  • JimmyGunn

    I don’t care that she stripped, live human bodies are one of nature’s finest creations. I am however very offended that she did it at the site where Johnson and Hoover had President Kennedy murdered. To me that place is a holy memorial.
