Rap singer Missy Elliott has revealed that her fellow rappers hire some cars whenever they are to appear on a TV show.

Elliot said that several music stars turn up in a glittering array of fancy cars for shows like MTV CRIBS.

"Some of those are rented. A lot of those are leased.... If you go back next week, those cars aren't gonna be in the yard! People do that," ratethemusic.com quoted Elliot as saying.
