Bring Missy Elliot to Friday Jams Live NZ 2020
It's worth a shot so I'll give it a go. With three successful Friday Jams Live concerts so far, every year I hope this Queen comes but nothing so far. I've been a diehard fan since she started, would love to see her grace our New Zealand stage to be the final showstopper for the evening at Friday Jams Live 2020. So share, sign, everything and hopefully someone who knows her will see this and let her know 😉🤣 Dreams are free 👌🏽
