Missy Elliot pays for bride's wedding dress after she posts about financial struggle, Internet says 'bless you'

'Your dress is paid for now. I don’t know you but I saw you said the dress of your dreams & figured I would help when I saw you post ya cash app,' wrote Missy on the woman's post

Celebrities who show generosity can be witnessed around the world frequently but it is a rare occasion when a celebrity chooses not to announce such acts of kindness but merely does it to make the world a better place in whatever way they can. We're not referring to a donation to a charity or any other philanthropic act but a brief, under-the-radar Twitter exchange by an amazing artiste and a Twitter user who spoke about the financial difficulties she's facing for her upcoming wedding.

On November 17, Missy Elliot blessed a couple by paying for the wedding gown. The bride, whose Twitter alias is  I R E A N N A, took to her account to open up about her financial challenge of saving up enough money for the wedding.

"I'm getting Married in March & trying to move into our own place. Excited but overwhelmed," she began her tweet. "I have been saving money; but it's still a struggle," she noted, adding, "I found my dream dress and I want to get it so bad but between saving for the move - I don't think it will be possible....." The bride also shared a pic of her dream dress and romantic photos of her and her soon-to-be husband.

She then called out for help in another tweet. "I never thought Id find a love like this and never thought someone would want to marry me. With all my previous insecurities - I didn't think I was worthy of love. Loving myself made me ready for love. I would be so grateful to have some support: anything would help," she wrote.

The woman's tweets drew the attention of Missy Elliot who responded in just over an hour. "Early Congratulations. May God Bless you both with an Unbreakable Union and full of Love & Happiness," Elliot said. Without a doubt, the rapper's message had the bride super excited and she replied with an invitation to the wedding: "Omg thank you so much.....I'm literally speechless; this is so sweet. You can come if you want — id love to have you."

If I R E A N N A wasn't excited enough that her post received a personal message from a hip-hop legend, Missy Elliot then dropped a bomb when she revealed she's paid for the wedding gown. "Your Dress is paid for now. I don’t know you but I saw you said the dress of your dreams & figured I would help when I saw you post ya cash app," she said, adding, "May Blessings pour on your Beautiful Wedding Day with your Future husband."

Missy Elliot's gift quickly circulated around Twitter and fans have numerous positive comments of their own for both the rapper and the bride. "Wow, this is incredible! @MissyElliott is so kind!" said a fan while another wrote, "Missy is so freaking dope and congrats to the beautiful couple, may the wedding bring so many blessings."

One fan exclaimed, "The woman is a GIVER!!!" "Congratulations to the beautiful couple and bless you Missy for just being you," added another fan.
