Missy Elliott cried “tears of joy” after last night’s Super Bowl halftime show because of the overwhelming positive response to her surprise cameo.
The rapper also flaunted her incredible 70-pound weight loss during the performance in which she performed her hits ‘Get Ur Freak On’, ‘Work It’ and ‘Lose Control’ alongside headliner Katy Perry.
