In a statement, Missy Elliott expressed her excitement about her upcoming tour, stating, “This is an incredible time in my life as I am experiencing so many milestone ‘firsts.’ Being the FIRST female Hip Hop artist to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and now going out on my FIRST headline tour. Fans have been asking me to tour forever but I wanted to wait until I felt the time was right because I knew if I was ever going to do it, I had to do it big, and I had to do it with family!
So get ready to be taken OUT OF THIS WORLD with me, Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland! We can’t wait to share this experience with the fans!”
Live Nation is producing Missy Elliott's tour, OUT OF THIS WORLD — The Missy Elliott Experience, alongside her longtime manager, Mona Scott-Young. The tour features Grammy-winning music video director Dave Meyers, celebrity stylist June Ambrose, and creative director Hi-Hat.
