While reporting on the Shia LaBeouf incident on Friday, PIX 11 reporter Mario Diaz had his own celebrity encounter when a white hat–wearing Erykah Badu interrupted his standup by attempting to kiss him on the cheek. The mischievous Badu must have had some free time on Friday in between performing at Dave Chappelle’s show, seeing Kara Walker’s A Subtlety, and hanging out in Bed-Stuy at the 25th anniversary for Do the Right Thing. Even though Diaz’s wife witnessed the whole thing, they both took it in stride once they realized that this was the fun kind of kooky celebrity encounter and not the violent kind. Watch the incident and read the Twitter postmortem:

@fatbellybella I get it because...

"Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with I just want your extra time and your..... kiss"

@fatbellybella #Btw my wife and 2-year-old were 20 yards away when it happened... She saw the roll up, you putting on hat & everything.

@fatbellybella After she figured out what really happened she laughed and said, "Great taste."

Next time I won't do the NYC push back.
