Despite their crowd pleasing performance at the Super Bowl earlier this year and their Pharrell Williams-produced single, "Nuclear," Michelle Williams says don't get your hopes up about Destiny's Child coming together anytime soon.
"As far as Destiny's Child is concerned, I think you've seen the last of us for a long time when we did the Super Bowl," Michelle told HipHollywood.
Michelle, Kelly Rowland,and Beyonce all have solo albums planned for this year (2013). For Williams, she will be releasing a new Gospel album. Currently, she's on the road touring as the star in Fela!
Check out the full interview below:
It’s been almost twenty years since Destiny’s Child burst into the music scene with their hit single “No, No, No”. The group quickly rose to fame and went on to become one of the most successful female R&B groups in history. But now, Michelle Williams has announced that we won’t be seeing any new Destiny’s Child material for a while.
In a recent interview, Michelle revealed that she and her former bandmates – Beyonce Knowles and Kelly Rowland – have no plans to reunite anytime soon. She said “We’re all doing our own thing right now so I don’t think anything is going to happen in the near future.” This news comes as a surprise to fans who had been hoping for new material from the iconic trio.
The announcement has left many wondering why this reunion isn’t happening after all these years. In this article, we take an in-depth look at what Michelle Williams said about the fate of Destiny’s Child and analyze why it looks like there won’t be any more music from them in the foreseeable future.
Michelle Williams’ Comments
It’s been a long time since we’ve heard anything from Destiny’s Child, and now Michelle Williams has confirmed they won’t be reuniting anytime soon. In an interview with Page Six, the Grammy-winning star revealed that she doesn’t see a reunion in their future for quite some time.
“I feel like people are always wanting us to do something,” said Williams. “But I think everyone is content with what they’ve done in both of their solo careers.” She went on to explain why it would be difficult for them to come together again: “We just took different paths — and sometimes when you take different paths, those roads don’t meet back up again.”
Despite this, Williams expressed gratitude towards her former bandmates Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland for all the memories created while working together. “I’m forever grateful for my sisters! We shared so many beautiful experiences together,” she told Page Six. It’s clear that even though there may not be any new music coming out of Destiny’s Child anytime soon, these three talented women remain connected through their friendship and admiration of each other.
Reactions To The Announcement
Fans of Destiny’s Child were disappointed to hear that the group won’t be reuniting anytime soon. While Michelle Williams’ comments made it clear that a reunion is not in the works, many still held out hope for new music from them down the line.
The news also sparked a flood of reactions on social media, with fans expressing their sadness and admiration for all three members of the group. Many praised Michelle Williams for her candor and honesty about why they wouldn’t be getting back together at this time. Others applauded Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland’s solo success since parting ways with Destiny’s Child over 15 years ago.
Though there may never be any more original material from Destiny’s Child again, we can always look back fondly on what was one of the most successful girl groups in history – thanks to three incredible women who will forever remain connected through their friendship and love for each other.
Conclusion
I, like many other Destiny’s Child fans, was devastated to hear that Michelle Williams had announced there would be no more Destiny’s Child for a long time. We all know and love the girl group as an icon of female empowerment in music, so this news is heartbreaking.
That being said, I can understand why Michelle made the decision she did. The band has been around since 1997 and they have moved on to pursue their own individual careers over the past few years. It makes sense for them to focus on themselves at this point in their lives.
Though it might feel like the end of an era with this announcement from Michelle Williams, hopefully one day we will get another chance to experience those iconic hits again. Until then, we just need to appreciate what we had while we still could!
