Missy Galore - Since leaving the spotlight to take a break, Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott left a gaping hole in the music world. It seems as though we are finally getting her back.

Here are the nine other times Missy gave us life, but let's be honest, she's got many more. – Jon Reyes (Photo: Tim Mosenfelder/FilmMagic)
