Erykah Badu
The 49-year-old singer - who doesn't have any symptoms of the illness - has taken to Twitter to discuss the confusing results of her recent tests.
She explained on the micro-blogging platform: "No symptoms. Was tested for COVID. Same machine. Left nostril positive . Right nostril negative. Maybe they need to call Swiss Beats so they can do a versus between them. Funny thing is , Dr. ONLY reported the positive result. What the f*** is goin on here. Rapid Test. $$$$ smh. (sic)"
Erykah subsequently posted a screenshot of her test results.
The music star called for an investigation into the coronavirus testing system.
She said: "This is my third rapid test in 24 hours. SMH. It’s routine to take c19 test before a livestream broadcast for all band and crew. Earlier I took 2 and one was positive the other neg in separate nostrils ?? We need to investigate these tests further. I want my $ back .
"What an inconvenience to be tested positive then negative 3x after within 24 hours. Same test . We understand that they aren’t 100% accurate but this is strange. (sic)"
Erykah also reassured her followers that she's feeling fine.
She shared: "I don’t feel bad at all . We have to take those routine COVID tests to work on set. I’m Gucci. But thanks . (sic)"
Meanwhile, Erykah previously admitted she's always been happy to against the grain with her opinions.
The outspoken star revealed she doesn't worry about upsetting people if she's convinced about her ideas.
She said: "I don’t care if the whole group says something, I’m going to be honest. I know I don’t have the most popular opinion sometimes."
