Erykah Badu had some things to get off her chest regarding an apparent home invasion attempt at her Dallas home. Apparently, there were several media reports that her home had been invaded by a stalker. In her typically peaceful neighborhood, that was unheard of, so of course it made headline news everywhere. After Ms. Badu caught wind of the many headlines though, she is now speaking out to set the record straight on what she says were pretty much real facts, mixed in with a few alternative facts.

A Stocking Cap & Confrontation?

In a new Twitter video message, Badu gave a tense filled message to her fans, in a tone that made whomever she was referring to probably feel like they’re being scolded by their 4th grade teacher after getting caught cheating on a test. Here’s what she had to say and you can watch her teacher-toned video message below:

“Stop it, stop it STOP IT. There is no stalker, there was no break-in. There is a kid on Twitter, followed me, had the hots for me, naturally. And came over, made a bad decision. Seven of his homies hemmed him up, I sent him on his way, gave him a stocking cap because it was cold. He went back to the bus station as far as I now. Next thing I hear, Babylon [police] pulls up on him, because the neighbors called the cops ’cause some strange kid was walking around, asking where Erykah Badu lived. Of course that’s a reason to raise a red flag and everyone got upset. The city is in an uproar because this kid made a bad decision. Please remember, lesson learned: Don’t make up stories, it’s not worth it. Media stop it. Stop it.”

Gotta luv Erykah, right? Not only did she be gracious enough to give the kid a pass for doing something stupid outside her home, but she gave the young man a stocking cap so he didn’t get sick…LOL. WOW! Now that’s some soutern hospitality for ya!’
