Missy Elliott Was The Class Clown

Teen People magazine asked Missy Elliott if she goofed off during her school days. “I was the class clown,” Missy admitted. “I was an only child, and only children are very creative because they don’t have brothers and sisters to play with. So I would always grab the attention in my family – like by getting on the table and singing at reunions. By the time I got to high school, people used to ask me to sit at their table [at lunch] because they knew I’d joke [around].”
