X Factor: Misha B "In Talks" With Missy Elliott

The ex-finalist confirms she could be working with the US rapper...

Misha Bryan may have been kicked off The X Factor last weekend, but it seems she's gained a celebrity fan in the shape of Missy Elliott.

Missy reached out to the axed finalist on Twitter after Bryan's fans sent the US rapper the 19-year old's performances, with the Get Ur Freak On hitmaker tweeting Misha her support after she left the ITV show.

Elliott posted via her official account:  "Congratulations to all the SUCCESS that will be coming 2 u! U R talented:)."

Misha is now hoping to hook-up with Missy in the near future, telling The Sun: "A lot of my fans were tweeting her — but I didn't know about it."

"She's been watching some of my performances on X Factor — some of the links that my fans have posted to her — and she's given me a lot of praise and support.So I just thought, right, OK, this is one of my heroes — let me just tweet her."

She added: "I totally didn't expect to get a reply but she replied and we got chatting — and hopefully, you know, with music we can work together."

Misha previously hinted that she's already been offered a record deal since her XF exit, claiming she's forgiven judges Tulisa Contostavlos and Louis Walsh for calling her a bully earlier in the competition.
