How Missy Elliott Always Manages to Work It—No Matter What She’s Doing

E! News: Any advice for Rihanna before her halftime performance?
Missy Elliott: If I had to tell her anything, disconnect and just tap into what you do best. Rihanna is an icon, so I know that she knows what to do, and she’s going to kill it! She’s going to do her thing, she always does. When she comes out, it’s going to be a big moment.
E!: Is there anyone else that you’re still hoping to work with?
ME: Rihanna is one of them, actually! Andre 3000 is another. I want to do a rap record with Erykah Badu and Jill Scott! We know they can sing, and they are amazing singers but they’re amazing MCs too and I don’t think people know that. Me, Erykah, Jill, and Lauryn [Hill]. I want to see that!
