Erykah Badu is known for shaking up the Internet with her music, theories and humor, but she doesn’t usually do that by sharing swimsuit photos. That recently changed, however, when she posted herself in a red one-piece that got a reaction from celebrities and fans.
The post shows the legendary soul singer standing in what looks to be a living room with a huge patio in the background. The red swimsuit has a middle cutout, and she’s sporting white high-top sneakers with it.
“Bout to get flewd out,” wrote Badu.
One of the celebs who commented was the singer Rahsaan Patterson, and he apparently liked what he saw. “Well,” he wrote.
Kim Fields, of “The Facts of Life” and “Living Single,” was also impressed and agreed with Patterson, who she tagged. “Right,” she expressed.
Naomi Campbell also reacted to the photo and posted fire emojis, as did “The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s” Kandi Burruss. Plus, film producer Will Packer weighed in and posted a raising hand emoji. “Wild N’ Out”‘s comedian Vena E. reacted as well and so did SZA.
“Flewt,” wrote the “Ctrl” singer.
Of course, Erykah’s fans weighed in, and many called her body toned.
“You need to play a superhero in a movie,” one person wrote. “I love you.”
“I need a window seat,” wrote another, referring to the singer’s 2010 single. “I thought you were Serena.”
“Now see…now i gotta go to the alter! Opening up Instagram in church.”
“Girl, you know I already loved this picture,” a third person commented. “I already screen-shotted and added to my body goals list.”
