Missy Elliot The Movie In The Works

The life story of hip-hop star Missy Elliott will soon be hitting the big screen. The rapper recently revealed to “Elle” magazine that a biopic is in the works. She said, quote, “It’s happening; I’ve just got to find a great writer because I wouldn’t want my story watered down.” Elliott adds, quote, “I went through a lot, and I accomplished a lot, and I want people to know how it all went down.” Missy Elliott grew up in Norfolk, Virginia and experienced a difficult upbringing. She says she was raped multiple times by an older cousin and that her mother was often abused by her father. Missy Elliott has since gone on to sell more than seven million albums in the United States. The songs “Lose Control,” “Work It,” “Gossip Folk,” “Get Ur Freak On” are among her big hits.
