Missy Elliott held a private dinner party for the 20-year anniversary of her Under Construction album in Las Vegas, Nevada on November 6th that was hosted by Patron.

To her surprise, Lil Wayne accepted Missy‘s invitation and turned up to the event. You can see more pictures and some footage of Wayne with Elliott after the jump below.

“Lil Wayne you have birthed a whole generation after you and it’s easy for people to acknowledge someone’s GREATNESS when they’re no longer around but I want you to know YOU ARE LEGENDARY no matter who thinks differently YOUR BLUEPRINT is PRESENT! No debate. Y’all guess who rolled up on me to help me celebrate??? I was so shocked because I invited him but I didn’t think he would come and he did. Blessed to Be out with this LEGEND/GAMECHANGER!” – Missy Elliott

As we already know, Weezy is a huge fan of the Virginia music artist and has praised her many times for being one of his biggest creative inspirations in past interviews (see here, here, here, here, here, and here)!
