EssenceFest Slammed After Cutting Missy Elliott’s Set Short [VIDEO]
Yikes. See a few tweets about the incident in question.
We’re not sure if Missy went over her time or if there was some type of technical difficulties going on behind the scenes. In any event, we’re told that Essence did apologize for the incident.
Anywho, from what we hear, the rest of the performances were amazing.
