Erykah Badu’s Best Looks at the 2017 Soul Train Awards.

Erykah Badu wore many hats, literally and figuratively, when she hosted the 2017 Soul Train Awards for the third time. The big event, which was held on November 5 in Las Vegas, aired last night on BET.

Badu proved the perfect host and slayed in a series of over the top looks, highlighting her love of statement pieces.

She made a grand entrance in Thom Browne SS18 with daughters Mars and Puma in this striking white fur number, complete with an out-of-this-world headpiece.
