Some things in life you just can't predict; like today, when I woke up, I had no idea that I was going to be blessed with a video from the internet's newest star: world, meet Mary Halsey. She may be Goddard Park's undisputed karaoke queen, but Missy Elliott is calling the woman from Rhode Island [1] her "funky white sister," and the accuracy has us wanting to see some birth certificates. A video of Mary's recent performance of Missy's 2002 hit "Work It" recently surfaced on the internet, and if the 3.2 million views on Mary's Facebook page [2] weren't enough, it was Missy's praise for her that had her freaking out [3].

"She straight up killed 'Work it' with the yea yea yea at the beginning & the sound effects & all🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😂 my funky white sis ft Miss Tippy Toe in the back," Missy wrote alongside the video. The best part is, one woman responded on Twitter saying that she knows "Missy Mary" [4] and she used to perform this song "every Friday night."

Between the shofar in Mary's hand and her friend (slash backup dancer) toe-stepping with what looks like a cup of noodles in the background, we think we've found our new opening act. Watch Mary's full video above and see how even more celebrities like Jada Pinkett Smith [5] are loving her video [6]. (And Mary, call me, I need entertainment for a friend's birthday party.)
