Alyson Stoner Recreates Her 'Work It' Dance During Missy Elliott's MTV VMAs Performance

It's been 17 years since Alyson Stoner first danced for Missy Elliott, and on Monday night, she proved she can still work it!

The Disney Channel alum and singer, 26, took the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards and recreated some of the moves she first displayed at the age of 9, when she cameoed in Elliott's 2002 video for her hit single "Work It.".

Her performance came during Elliott's epic Video Vanguard Award showcase.

Prior to the performance, Stoner - who also had a memorable role in Elliott's "Gossip Folks" video in 2002, as well as her video for "I'm Really Hot" in 2006 - walked the red carpet at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, in a cream mini dress with billowing sleeve details and a plunging neckline.

Aside from Stoner and "Work It," Elliott's VMA performance medley also included some of her biggest hits over the years, including "Past That Dutch," Work It" and "Lose Control.

The 5'2″ emcee and hip-hop pioneer - known by her Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott nickname - is the only female rapper to have six studio albums certified platinum, including her debut 1997 album Supa Dupa Fly and her 2002 LP Under Construction.

Earlier this year, Elliott also made history as the first female hip-hop artist to be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame."I promised I wouldn't cry this time because I cry at every awards," Elliott said on Monday when accepting her Video Vanguard Award.
