Erykah Badu: I Found Out Janelle Monae Was Gay On The Internet! + Janelle’s Hilarious Reaction

June is National LGBT Pride Month, and singer/actress Janelle Monae shocked singer Erykah Badu with a confession following a hilarious “happy pride” Instagram video. Erykah whispered in her message to Janelle,

Happy Pride Janelle Monae, my ‘twenty.’ I had to find out over the Internet. So I guess I’m not your type. When a person doesn’t say speaks volumes. Happy Pride. You gay.

This year, Janelle confirmed her sexuality in Rolling Stone, explaining,

Being a black queer woman in America, someone who has been in relationships with both men and women…I consider myself to be a free-ass motherfu-ker.’
