Lockhart Line 4.7 Erykah's Window Seat...Turning Heads and Making Headlines

Erykah Badu's now infamous video "Window Seat" is doing more than just turning heads. In fact the artist is still making headlines a week or so later after the video which some have labeled as "shocking" went viral on the Web.

After meeting with the city prosecutors, the Dallas police have decided to cite the singer for disorderly conduct and sent her the ticket in the mail.

Look, I'm not going to act like I'm naive.  I get it. Not only was an illegal venture, but the low-budget guerilla or rogue video was filmed in broad daylight, in plain view of families visiting Dealey Plaza, where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.

Erykah's move was an extraordinarily provocative one considering how she ends the video by dis-robing and then falling in a lifeless heap, at almost the exact location where the then president met the fate of the assassin's bullet on the "grassy knoll" more than 40 years ago.

But, come on man! It's 2010 not 1910!  This was art plain and simple to label it otherwise would be tragic. 

Check out the video for yourself!
