Erykah Badu accuses Beyonce of ripping off her style on Renaissance World Tour: ‘I guess I’m everybody’s stylist!’
Erykah Badu has accused Beyonce of ripping off her style with her outlandish Renaissance World Tour outfits.
Legendary singer Badu, 52, who is known for breaking style boundaries, took to Instagram on Monday to slam Beyonce, 41, for donning an oversized chrome hat which was similar to one worn by Badu onstage.
Sharing Beyonce’s post, which showed the superstar bowing her head in the hat, paired with camouflage boots and a glittery IV sports jersey, Badu wrote: ‘Hmmm’.
She then shared a post of herself in a near-identical hat and wrote: ‘I guess I’m everybody stylist.’
Badu first garnered style kudos upon breaking out on the late 90s music scene for her chameleon-like adaptations of traditional African dress.

This comes after Badu was performing in Atlanta when she professed her crush for Star Wars actor John Boyega.
The singer was taking a break between songs during the performance, when she started discussing her crush on the 31-year-old London-born actor, who is in the running to play chef Levi Roots in a biopic.
‘If anybody ever see John Boyega, tell that n***a I said hi,’ Badu said to the crowd, adding, ‘There’s a lot of people in the audience, that’s why I wanted to say that cause there’s enough of y’all for one of y’all to get the message to the man, right,’ she joked.
She went on to add that the actor was, ‘Fine,’ before asking someone in the audience how old he is.
‘He under 30? Hell yeah, that’s what I’m talking about. Nuts still tough, you know what I’m saying? That’s what I be looking for,’ she added.

She then broke into her hit 1977 song Tyrone when Boyega came out on stage to surprise her.
‘It’s good to see you,’ Boyega told the singer, who exclaimed, ”It’s John Boyega!’ after giving the actor a hug on stage.
Badu said, ‘I’m at work, I gotta work,’ she told the actor, as her backup singers continued the song, adding, ‘Call him,’ perhaps as a message to the singer herself.
‘But I can multitask,’ Badu said as she continued the song with Boyega, as they continued a flirty exchange on stage as she went back to work.
She later told Boyega, ‘I’m gonna go back to the bus later on, after the show, of course. I gotta finish this, then we gonna go back to the bus, is that all right?’
The actor agreed and gave her a kiss on the cheek as she told him, ‘They’ll give you the key, you can roll one for me,’ she said, before freaking out in front of the audience.
‘Make sure you roll one up for me. Thank you,’ she said, as Boyega left the stage.
The performance was part of the singer’s Unfollow Me Tour, which wraps up in September in London.
