Missy Elliott and her viral "Funky White Sister" are together!
The singer of "Work It" surprised her fan, whose real name is Mary Halsey, during a performance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Thursday.
In her interview with DeGeneres, Halsey said she never expected her cover version to be seen by the hip-hop star, who shared the viral video with a message of support last month.
"I have to sit, I can not even tell you," she said. "It was a shock, I never expected that, I put it there and I said that I wanted to become viral, but I did not never thought it would happen. "
Halsey also revealed that she had been singing "Work It" for 15 years and that she found the name "Funky White Sister" to fill the time during the start of the song.
Then she went on stage to animate the audience with her viral cover.
"Hi everyone, I'm at The Ellen Show, first time," she began. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, Mrs. Funky White Sister is in the house!"
DeGeneres and guest Kristen Bell watched the scene from the outside, eagerly awaiting the Rhode Island woman's reaction when Elliott joined her on stage.
Halsey made her sing for a moment, obviously in shock, then jumped again to finish the song together. After finishing their performance, they gave themselves a big hug.
