Missy Elliot won the VMA Vanguard Video Award, an honour given to her in recognition of the amazing work she has done in the music industry over the last three decades.
She performed an incredible medley of her greatest hits (which, let's face it, is a lot to choose from). When you watch her performance, try to believe that she is 48.
She also brought out Alyson Stoner for a blast from the past. This is her now:
And in case you forgot, here she is as a kid:
BRB, just going to download the entire Missy Elliott back catalogue and fall in love with her all over again.
The 20 Most Iconic VMA Looks Of All Time
Rose McGowan, 1998
Who could forget the time in 1998 when Rose McGowan truly gave new meaning to the term 'naked dress'? An iconic VMA moment.
Cardi B, 2018
In her first public appearance since the birth of her daughter, Kulture, Cardi B took a rather demure approach to the 2018 VMA's and we're into it. The singer sported a then-new pixie crop to compliment her Nicholas Jebran dress with a thigh high split to envy Angelina.
Cindy Crawford, 1992
Arguably our favorite super of all, it's Cindy Crawford, wearing a classic Versace creation by Gianni himself. This bondage inspired dress was made complete with Cindy's addition of the red ribbon, supporting the fight against HIV/AIDS.
Lady Gaga, 2010
When Lady Gaga wore a dress made of meat to the VMAs we were all shocked and maybe also initially confused. This statement echoed a speech that Gaga made called The Prime Rib of America, where she spoke of her wish to end discrimination of gay men and women serving in the US military.
Miley Cyrus, 2015
After the singles 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball' came this, a questionable silver surfer/spacewoman look from Miley. Nobody but Miley could pull this off. And that's all we have to say on the matter.
Naomi Campbell, 2016
Proof that you don't necessarily need to use shock tactics to make an entrance, the endlessly flawless Naomi stole the show in 2016 in this mint green Brandon Maxwell mini. We bow down.
Rita Ora, 2014
This backless satin number was a red carpet winner for Rita Ora. Designed by Donna Karan, complete with train and thigh-high slit, with the possibility of inspo from Jessica Rabbit. One gust of wind though...
Mariah Carey, 1997
No wonder her legs were insured. Red carpets need more Mariah, if you ask us.
Katy Perry, 2014
If there's anything better than Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake wearing matching denim ensembles to the 2001 American Music Awards, it's Katy Perry paying homage to that at the VMAs. Plus, it's custom Versace. Fancy.
Kendall and Kylie Jenner, 2014
This was Kendall and Kylie's first time at the VMAs and, like any panicked party guest, they decided to play it safe and go with anything black.
Christina Aguilera, 2006
Remember when Christina Aguilera started channeling '50s glamour? Well, this is a prime example of that. Nice work, XTINA.
Beyoncé & Blue Ivy, 2016
Trust the Carter's to bring their A-game when it comes to matchy-matchy, mother-daughter moments. Beyoncé's date for the 2016 VMA's was her then four-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy. She wore a tiara, of course.
Madonna, 1984
Perhaps one of her most iconic looks, Madonna attended the VMAs in 1984 sporting a belt reading 'BOY TOY' (obviously), complete with white lace gloves and her signature bustier.
Hailey Baldwin, 2016
Baldwin before the Bieber - at the 2016 VMA's Hailey stunned in a sultry sheer jumpsuit complete with barely there sandals and "I woke up like this" hair.
Pamela Anderson, 1999
Erm, we're sort of into it? Also, Kim Kardashian recreated this for Halloween. Who said fashion was circular?
Kim Kardashian, 2016
It wouldn't be a red carpet homage without a little Kardashian, and this 2016 look did not disappoint. Straying from her normal uniform of sleek tresses and strong contour, Kim took the 'less-is-more' approach to her beauty look to compliment her overtly sexy LBD. Is this possibly the most low-key the reality star has ever looked?
Kelly Clarkson, 2005
Oh, Kelly Clarkson, you'll always have a place in our hearts. This golden gown was pretty chilled for the VMAs red carpet, and she just looks lovely. We're just off to listen to Breakaway...
Lil Kim, 1999
The red carpet look that inspired a million fancy dress costumes (including Miley Cyrus in 2013) - is this one-shouldered, boob-baring jumpsuit the most famous of all VMA history?
Millie Bobby Brown, 2017
The Stranger Thing's Actress made her red carpet debut in 3 of 2017's biggest trends: ruffles, polka dots and sheer fabrics and immediately skyrocketed to the top our all the best-dressed lists. Millie, then 13-years-old, completed her chic Rodarte mini with tough lace-up boots and a ballerina-esque bun.
Jennifer Lopez, 2018
Don't be fooled by the rocks that she's got, Jenny from the Block took to the red carpet a chain-mail Versace gown to accept the Video Vanguard Award before heading to the stage to perform a medley of hits, including "Love Don't Cost A Thing" and "On The Floor". J-Lo forever.
