Missy Elliott may have turned 53 on July 1, but it appears she’ll be celebrating all month long, as she recently announced a giant birthday celebration in Los Angeles that’s going down later this month.
On Saturday (July 6), Billboard shared that Missy will be presenting ‘Party on the Plaza: An Out of This World Experience,’ a “birthday and tour kickoff celebration” that will feature “live DJs, Elliott’s tour dancers leading the OUT OF THIS WORLD Dance Challenge, plus a special surprise.”

Missy’s first-ever headlining tour, the 24-city trek will take the quartet across North America this summer. It began on July 4 in Vancouver.
From there, Missy and co. will make stops in cities such as Houston, Atlanta, New York and Toronto before closing things out on August 22 in Rosemont, Illinois.
“This is an incredible time in my life as I am experiencing so many milestone ‘firsts,’” Elliott said in a press release. “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!
