Erykah Badu Says She Vandalized Her Own Tesla: “Trying to Stay on Trend”

Erykah Badu just admitted to vandalizing her own Tesla, but not for the reasons you might think.

Amid the rise in Tesla vandalism since Elon Musk’s White House visit, Badu took to X on Sunday, saying, “Just vandalized my own Tesla. Trying to stay on trend.”

Vandalism of Musk-owned Teslas has been up in recent months, with showrooms, charging stations, and privately owned vehicles getting targeted.

So, did Badu really want to make a statement or was she just having some fun with the trend?

Just vandalized my own Tesla.
Trying to stay on trend.
