RAP icon Lil’ Kim made a surprise appearance at a Missy Elliott concert in Brooklyn on Monday.
Earlier this year, Missy, 53, revealed that she, along with Ciara and Busta Rhymes, would be touring North America on the Out Of This World tour – but made no mention of Lil’ Kim.
Elliott is wrapping her first-ever headlining tour with just seven dates left until the final performance on August 23 in Illinois.
Missy stunned at Barclays Center in an all-black ensemble with tons of neon designs scattered along the fabric.
She also added a hot pink furry hat on top to pull the outfit together.
When she brought out Lil’ Kim, 50, the dynamic duo slightly matched as the star wore a latex black bodysuit with fur strapped to her legs and a matching boa.
She also added sunglasses while she and Missy sang hit songs including The Jump Off.
After an amazing performance, Missy took to social media to thank Lil’ Kim for performing with her.
“Big up my sis the Legendary@lilkim who went #OutOfThisWorld on the SPACESHIP with us last night & smashed up D Place in Brooklyn.
“Love you to da MOON & Bk,” she wrote on X.
