Erykah Badu was bestowed the fashion icon award by the Council of Fashion Designers of America, playfully saying it was an honor she’d been hoping to get most of her life.
Wearing a headdress of jewels and a Thom Browne jacket, Badu accepted the award Monday night in Manhattan, said she’s been trying to win the icon award since she was 6 years old. Badu described dressing up as a sport, therapy and her husband.
