Amazing how she's fighting not for her own gain, but instead to make sure her friend Missy gets the recognition she truly deserves! What a humble and generous Queen.

Be sure to join Ciara in asking MTV to give Missy the recognition she deserves by retweeting her latest tweet, ATRL.

Originally posted by Lazerbeamz I love Missy and her music, but what exactly about her visuals is great? ... Her music videos are mediocre at best, imo.

You could say the same thing about half the people who have the Vanguard. It's about impact with music videos and Missy definitely impacted music videos in the 00's.

I'm guessing you agree Nicki should never receive that award because her music videos are poop stains compared to Missy's.
