Erykah Badu was charged with disorderly conduct over her nude video shoot for her latest single, "Window Seat," according to TMZ.com. Badu will be mailed a citation and faces up to a $500 fine.

According to the site, a Texas woman filed an indecency complaint with the Dallas Police Department; an official announcement will be made at a news conference held by the police department soon.

The video was shot in one take at Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Tex., the site where John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963.Once Badu gets all the way down to her curvaceous birthday suit, a gunshot rings out and her body collapses on to the sidewalk, as blue blood spills out to form the word "groupthink."

On the complaints about her decision to go naked on camera, Badu recently tweeted, "Funny thing is, the physical nudity is nothing lol. I been naked all along in my words actions and deeds. thats the real vulnerable place."

I love this video because I looked beyond the physicality! I believe if everyone else does, then they will appreciate this as the good work it is. She has an extremely strong and relevant message that the whole human race could benefit from! There is worse that can viewed on television at all times, including new cartoons that use more obscenity and vulgarity than anything! This song and video has substance and should be appreciated for the vital message she is giving!
