Missy Elliot Managing to Pull Off A Trash Bag While Peforming On Stage

History Daily

Crazy as it might sound, but Missy Elliot is wearing what looks like a giant black trash bag as an outfit during one of her public performances. Although she’s known more for her music than her controversial outfits, this outfit in particular is one that will never be forgotten. She explained that she wore it to hide any shyness, explaining, “To me, the outfit was a way to mask my shyness behind all the chaos of the look. Although I am shy, I was never afraid to be a provocative woman. The outfit was a symbol of power. I loved the idea of feeling like a hip-hop Michelin woman. I knew I could have on a blow-up suit and still have people talking. It was bold and different. I’ve always seen myself as an innovator and a creative unlike any other.”
