Destiny’s Child Announce Split

Last Saturday night, Destiny’s Child announced from the stage in Barcelona, Spain that their current tour will be their last. The multi-platinum trio — Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, all of whom have already released solo albums — then issued a statement to MTV News on Sunday about the group’s future, or lack thereof:

“We have been working together as Destiny’s Child since we were 9, and touring together since we were 14,” the statement read. “After a lot of discussion and some deep soul searching, we realized that our current tour has given us the opportunity to leave Destiny’s Child on a high note, united in our friendship and filled with an overwhelming gratitude for our music, our fans, and each other. After all these wonderful years working together, we realized that now is the time to pursue our personal goals and solo efforts in earnest. … No matter what happens, we will always love each other as friends and sisters and will always support each other as artists. We want to thank all of our fans for their incredible love and support and hope to see you all again as we continue fulfilling our destinies.”

The title of their latest album, November ’04’s Destiny Fulfilled, might have been a clue
