Miss Prissy (born Marquisa Gardner) is an American dancer known for the krumping style.[1] She has been called The Queen of Krump.[2]
She was one of the dancers featured in the 2005 film Rize, a documentary about krump dancing. She also stared in the 2005 Madonna music video Hung Up which topped the charts in over 30 countries. In 2012 she choreographed The Underground, a performance by 12 dancers to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the beginnings of krump, at the University of Southern California's Bovard Auditorium.[3][4] Other film appearances include Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007).[5]
Miss Prissy trained in classical ballet from the age of four, and was a cheerleader at school. She began to be called "Miss Prissy" because school-mates in "The Valley"[clarification needed] were surprised that a girl from her "South Central"[clarification needed] background was a ballet dancer and "so girly".[1] She teaches krumping at a dance school in North Hollywood.[6]
