There's no way you could have forgotten about our spunky Missy Elliot, right? With huge records like "Get Your Freak On", "Work It", and even the throwback that started it all, "The Rain", Missy has always been in the back of our minds especially whenever we see or hear the likes of female artists like Nicki Minaj. So where and what has Missy been up to? Well, unfortunately she has been sick. Perez Hilton is reporting that Missy has been battling Graves, an autoimmune disease, for the past few years.
"You live with it for the rest of your life. I couldn't write because my nervous system was so bad. I couldn't even use a pen." said, Missy. But, there is good news!
Missy Elliot has also revealed that she is currently in the studio working on new material with Timbaland. Hopefully, she will stay healthy and continue to release records soon! Expect her new songs to hit us early next year.
