THE PARTICIPANTS CREATIVELY REVEAL WHAT INSPIRES THEM AND PERFORM FOR STUDENTS AT MISSY'S FORMER HIGH SCHOOL IN NORFOLK, VA, ON "THE ROAD TO STARDOM WITH MISSY ELLIOTT," WEDNESDAY, JAN. 19 AT 8:00 PM ON UPN

"I Want Fly Beats"-- When the tour arrives in Missy's hometown of Norfolk, Va., the performers are surprised when challenged to utilize items found in a local junkyard to create an artistic tribute to what inspires them, but the emotionally revealing day ends on a charged note when one of the participants offends Missy, on THE ROAD TO STARDOM WITH MISSY ELLIOTT, Wednesday, Jan. 19 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on UPN.

Then, the competitors are asked to perform some of Missy's biggest hits before one of the toughest crowds imaginable -- the students at Missy's former high school. Later, when one vocalist's ego appears to be getting too big, Missy takes it upon herself to try to take it down a notch, leading to the elimination of one participant. .
