Tina Knowles also marked the occasion on social media, posting the same video as her daughter on Instagram.
“It is always great seeing Destiny’s Child together,” she wrote in part in the caption. “We watched as Michelle kill this role ! She saying like an angel and looked like a goddess ,!!! Ride or die friends who support and love each other ❤️.”
Destiny’s Child, originally called Girls’ Tyme, featured a lineup that consisted of Beyoncé, Rowland, LeToya Luckett, and LaTavia Roberson. After Luckett and Roberson left the group, they were replaced by Williams and Farrah Franklin, though Franklin left the group six months after joining.
Despite disbanding after their final studio album in 2004, the members of Destiny’s Child have still supported one another in their solo endeavors and Rowland and Beyoncé have maintained a close friendship.
In November 2023, Rowland, Williams, Luckett, and Roberson stepped out to support Beyoncé at the premiere of her “Renaissance” concert film in Los Angeles.
Previously, Destiny’s Child reunited on-stage at the Super Bowl in February 2013, with Rowland and Williams joining Beyoncé to perform “Bootylicious” and “Independent Women” before they joined in on “Single Ladies.”
They also made an appearance at Beyoncé’s historic Coachella set in 2018 after she became the first Black woman to headline the festival. The trio performed their hits “Lose My Breath,” “Say My Name,” and “Soldier” for the occasion.
