Alyson Stoner Did Not Rehearse Before Missy Elliott VMA Appearance
She can still work it!
It’s been 17 years since Alyson Stoner starred in Missy Elliott’s “Work It” music video, but apparently dancing is like riding a bike? Apparently you just remember how to do it! Or at least, that’s the case for the 26-year-old. On Monday night (August 26), she surprisingly joined the rapper onstage during her Video Vanguard performance, which was a medley of greatest hits, including “Work It.”

On Tuesday (August 27), the dancer took to Twitter to respond to a fan asking if she had to rehearse before the epic performance. “Let’s talk quick facts..” she wrote. “[Choreographer] HiHat hit me up a day before to jump in, said ‘do your thing’ and then it was showtime. But those grooves don’t leave your system.”
