Mathew Knowles has put the kibosh on rumors of a Destiny’s Child reunion. On Monday, Bey’s dad/manager released a statement denying recent whispers that the Bug-A-Boo hitmakers would be reuniting for a comeback album.
“Contrary to rumors online of a Destiny’s Child reunion, there are no plans for the group to reunite for a performance or album. The rumors are false Destiny’s Child made an unprecedented impact in contemporary music, becoming one of the best-selling groups of all time. Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams have each moved on to successful solo careers. The members remain close, but will not reunite as a group.”
While Beyonce has gone on to become one of the most successful female recording artists of the last decade, her former bandmates Kelly and Michelle — now a Broadway performer — have struggled to match her success.
It looks like Beyonce Knowles-Carter is the only former “Child of Destiny” that managed to get herself wifed up.
In fact, vocalist Farrah Franklin, who was apart of Destiny’s Child for approximately five minutes back in 2000, will be looking for love this week on Bravo’s Millionaire Matchmaker. Things go down hill, however, when Farrah shows four hours late to meet her date and matchmaker Patti Stanger has to let her know that her diva tendencies will leave her single forever.
Farrah Franklin appears on Millionaire Matchmaker this Thursday, April 30th @ 10/9c on Bravo.
Destiny’s Child–the now defunct R&B group perhaps best known as “Beyonce & ‘Nem–”are set to reunite to record one final album, according to PerezHilton.com.
“They still have another album they owe their label, Columbia Records, on their contract,” a source told the site on Wednesday.
The Grammy-winning group split in 2005. The news comes at the perfect time for former Child of Destiny Kelly Rowland, who was dropped from her career-long label home at Columbia Records last week.
Kelly Rowland claims Beyonce & ‘Em, also known as Destiny’s Child, are considering a reunion after witnessing the highly successful reload of the Spice Girls. Read the rest of this entry »
