Missy Elliott - Monica Praises Missy's Counselling Skills

R+B singer MONICA is so impressed with the advice her pal MISSY ELLIOTT gave her, she believes the rapper should seriously consider a career as a therapist.

The 23-year-old GRAMMY-winning beauty worked with Missy on her latest album AFTER THE STORM, and she was thrilled she could confide in her friend whenever they weren't recording.

Monica says, "She's my friend, and I love her, it made every session like a party, because even if I was having a bad day, I could talk to her and tell her what was going on.

"She's a lot like a guy in the sense that she gets straight to the point, and I like that. Sometimes women try to analyse things a little too much.

"What comes out of her mouth comes directly from her heart. I think she would be a big help."

But for anybody hoping to land a couch session with Missy, Monica warns that she'd probably set high charges.

She adds, "You might want to get signed, get a record deal first."
