She has now mastered other forms of performance art. "Rainbow Body Performance" was inspired by Tibetian Buddhist Philosophy where the third party's perspective observes enlightenment. For the performance, she was suspended by the ceiling, and hundreds of crystal prisms were dangling by her body and limbs, this created the refraction of light resulting in creating rainbow light.
In an interview, she mentioned everything around her inspired to create art. The creative people and collaborators that surround her influence her the most. She says that having them around her is very important because she believes creativity attracts creativity.
Millie has worked with many famous artists including Lady Gaga, Nick Knight, and Ruth Hogben. She has performed in different parts of the world. After her performance with Lady Gaga with vomit act, she was criticized for glamorizing bulimia. However, she defended herself and said To Guardian on 24 March 2014 that,
"I'm using my body to create something beautiful, I think it's misunderstood by a lot of people. But it really doesn't have anything to do with eating disorders. If I was male, [no one would make] such a massive association."
