Erykah Badu was on New York’s PIX 11 News on Saturday, but not as an interviewee or invited guest. Instead, she video bombed reporter Mario Diaz while he reported on Shia LeBeouf’s arrest.
In the clips below, you can see Badu smiling and walking behind Diaz, showing off her bright outfit and making salacious hand gestures. Then, she attempts to lean in and kiss the reporter on the cheek, but Diaz gently shoves her aside and continues on with his report like a pro.
Despite it clearly being her underneath that giant white hat, Badu initially denied her cameo.
nope. “@StevieTrees47: @fatbellybella is that you? https://t.co/toWbpmgp0x”

Eventually, she revealed the truth:
@MarioPIX11 sorry Mario. :-)))))

Diaz responded, saying his wife saw Badu rolling up and prepping the bomb. He promised that, “Next time I won’t do the NYC push back,” and quoted Prince’s “Kiss”:
@fatbellybella I get it because…
"Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with I just want your extra time and your….. kiss"
