It’s been 25 years since Destiny’s Child blew Us away with Survivor — an anniversary that Beyoncé will always remember.
“Today celebrates the twenty fifth Anniversary of Destiny’s Child‘s third album, Survivor ❤️🙏🏽,” Beyoncé, 44, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, April 25. “To my soul sisters, I thank God for you each. It’s an honor to sing through life with you ladies by my side.”
She continued, “Behind the curtains, beyond the lights, perpetually my Angels. Ma kee ta ta 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.”
Destiny’s Child released their third album, Survivor, in April 2001, featuring hit tracks including “Survivor,” “Independent Woman Part I,” “Bootylicious” and “Nasty Girl.”
Beyoncé was a founding member of Destiny’s Child alongside Kelly Rowland, LaTavia Roberson and LeToya Luckett. Roberson, 44, and Luckett, 45, left the girl group in 2000 before Michelle Williams got here aboard. The group disbanded six years later when Beyoncé, Rowland, 45, and Williams, 46, all pursued solo careers.
While Beyoncé, Rowland and Williams have each found enormous success on their very own, they’ve remained close. Beyoncé invited her former bandmates to perform at several of her live shows, including the 2018 Super Bowl halftime show, a headlining set at Coachella in 2018 and a 2025 Cowboy Carter Tour show.
Beyoncé’s dad, Mathew Knowles, has even been vocal concerning the girls’ decision to proceed performing together while concurrently supporting one another’s solo endeavors.
“I definitely hope so. I also understand that Kelly and Beyoncé are moms they usually have a family and that changes the dynamics,” Knowles, 74, exclusively told Us Weekly in May 2020. “Each one among the women are successful in their very own right. All of them have their individual solo careers. So coordinating family, careers, that’s lots of juggling. I’m sure in due time the women will determine if that’s what they wish to do and in the event that they do or don’t as supportive as I could possibly be as their manager.”
He continued on the time, “[Their Coachella performance] shows how much they practiced, that 10 years later they can not miss a beat. It’s just remarkable. It shows that their dedication was really there. I do know these ladies, they’ve strong work ethics. I’m extremely happy with all three of them.”
Destiny has aligned and reunited Beyoncé together with her former bandmates on the red carpet premiere of Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé. Beyoncé, 42, debuted her Renaissance World Tour documentary on Saturday, November 25, in Beverly Hills, where she stole the show in a custom silver Versace gown. The record-breaking Grammy winner invited a star-studded group […]
Rowland shares two sons together with her husband, Tim Weatherspoon, while Beyoncé and Jay-Z are parents of three.
Beyoncé and Rowland even recently cheered on Williams during a 2024 performance of Death Becomes Her on Broadway.
“I’d actually love for them to [perform on Broadway],” Williams exclusively told Us in November 2024. “I feel they’re very able to starring in a Broadway show — absolutely!”
