Dallas, TX — Singer-songwriter Erykah Badu has announced that she is planning to perform a concert through a live stream from her bedroom in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. The event will cost $1 each to fans who want to watch and have a chance to pick what songs she will perform.
The Grammy Award-winning singer was originally set to do a concert tour in different states from February to November 2020 but was canceled due to the coronavirus.
As an alternative, Badu decided to live stream a concert from her bedroom in Dallas, Texas. The interactive Apocalypse One event will include a poll where attendees who paid their $1 admission could choose which songs she will perform.
Prior to Badu, some artists like John Legend and Chris Martin also did a live stream concert for their fans for free.
Last week, Badu also caught public attention when she received the Filmmakers & Soundtrack Award at Texas Film Awards wearing a hazmat suit with Louis Vuitton logo, which she called “social distancing couture” in her Instagram post.
