ERYKAH BADU – WINDOW SEAT
Erykah Badu recently joined the ranks of Lady Gaga andBeyonce Knowles by causing a stir with the release of her “Window Seat” video – where she strips down naked by the video’s end.
While the mother-of-three doesn’t kill a diner full of people in the clip like Gaga’s“Telephone”, a completely nude Badu is shot in the head, and once on the ground the words “groupthink” spill onto the pavement.
Filmed in Dallas, Texas – near the location John F. Kennedy was shot in 1963, Erykah says what fans don’t see are pedestrians yelling at her to put on her “damn clothes!”
She tweeted: “Heard people yelling diff things @ me but I held my head up and kept moving. There were children there. I prayed they wouldn’t b tramatized.”
The shocking concept was inspired by indie punk group Matt and Kim’s “Lessons Learned” video, where the duo peel off their clothes in Time Square.
