Missy had a good time!!!!
At this year’s ESSENCE Festival of Culture, 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Missy Elliott celebrated her 52nd birthday with a “Supa Dupa Fly” Sneaker Ball. Presented by the outlet, Coke-Zero, and Amazon Music, the star-studded affair took place at the Four Seasons New Orleans on Sunday July 2.

Missy’s exclusive guest list consisted of close friends, industry execs, and her fellow celebrity peers. In attendance were Jermaine Dupri, Jill Scott, Ari Lennox, Letoya Luckett, Charlie Mack, Roland Martin, and more.

The futuristic experience included a purple LED lit tunnel playing all of the Grammy-winner’s music and iconic videos from her illustrious career. In addition, larger than life images from the Virginia-native‘s recent Essence Magazine Cover shoot also plastered the walls of the event.

Guests indulged in fine dining. They enjoyed gourmet hors d’oeuvres with Missy-inspired signature cocktails curated by Crown Royal’s limited-edition Golden Apple. A premium D’usse Cognac bar also offered specialized drinks named, “The Rain,” “Iconology,” and “Work It.” Bryan Michael Cox stepped in as a special guest DJ, as Jermaine Dupri also made an appearance.

It was THEE experience!
