Pics: Erykah Badu In Concert

Singer Erykah Badu showcased some of the beauty and flair that made Tom Ford sign her as the face of his new fragrance, while performing in concert last night at the Mizner Park Amphitheater in Boca Raton, Florida. The singer, who is in the midst of a whirlwind 48 city, 42 show tour, took to the stage wearing a tiered black dress that looked something like a folded shower curtain, a plumed hat that was perched askew atop a black knit stocking cap and fake eyelashes that would have made 1970’s Diana Ross proud. Don’t let the weirdness fool you though. Erykah’s “Vortex” trek has been getting rave reviews from the American press and will no doubt garner the same acclaim when she takes her act overseas during the European leg of her tour.

LOL. That E. Badu is something else, aint she? But I love the heavens out of her! Her personality is so “colorful”. Has anyone heard her recent album? I haven’t bought a CD in a while…

It looks as if she puts on one heck of a performance. Those pics have my mind wondering what the rest of the concert was like.

Miss Erykah is super talented! I don’t know about her sense of style though. I heard her latest single, Honey. The song is great and the video matches her personality. Nowadays its hard to find an artist like her who is true to herself and always keeps it real

I was there and it was AMAZING! Love these photos, Brown Sista — her makeup was truly out of this world. Here’s my concert review, for those of you who were wondering how it was…

Erykah is a NON CONFORMIST as she marches to the beat of her own drum and I applaud her. This sista is very conscious. She`s one of the very few who`s not all about the bling bling and the glamour; it`s good to see.
