Destiny's Child!
 

Ok I have seen this topic on other boards, but I watched "Bootylicious: Making the video" and I just had to comment on some stuff:

1. When they found out they had debuted at #1, Kelly and Beyonce hugged, while Michelle just kinda hugged the outside. Proving to me once again that she is still "odd man out"

2. I have to admit, Beyonce is not as toned as I thought she was. Michelle is the most toned of the group.

3. I liked the Michael Jackson tribute.

4. Is it just me, or is Beyonce's hair blond as all get out???

5. I just don't understand how they can have a song on "Survivor" about putting some clothes on when they do the same thing? what's up with that?

I like D.C. but they seem more like a duo(Beyonce and Kelly) than a trio. I bet beyonce's sister will be the 4th member when she gets older! lol!

Yeah, pretty interesting points. Our sisters across the street, the AKAs, have a couple of discussion threads devoted to DC, if you all want to check that out.

Can someone tell me WHY they were booed at the game while in Philly? I'm not trying to understand because they are from Houston...I'm just trying to figure out what did they do the the public? Is it the age old drama or was it their outfits? Someome please shed some light on this for me. I'm Lost!

My friend was at the game when they got booed and she said a lot of them were booing because Michelle had on a Lakers shirt. A lot of people were upset because they were lip singing too. Why that was such a big deal, I have no clue!

Well I can understand the lip synching. I would be upset too. I read a little bit about it on www.tomjoyner.com/indanews/

Well, sometimes lipsynching is needed if you have a complicated routine. But I do give Nsync props, they DO NOT lipsync. And they have a routine that is way more complicated than D.C.

I think they got booed because of all the reasons you guys have said. And you know how it is, let a few people get to booing and you are gonna boo too(it's the same for doing the wave at a football game)

D.C. called my station last year and our morning show CLOWNED the heck outta them. When they got off the air, Beyonce tried to say something crazy and I(an intern at the time) was like "oh no she didn't" and said a few....choice words : )

Needless to say, I got hired in a few months, lol

Madam Moderator, as I said on a previous post, I'm not a Destiny's Child fan (although I do like a couple of their songs). For ME it's all this hype about BEYONCE'. It's just not setting right with me. She's talented and pretty, but I feel that she's being singled out and made to LOOK as if SHE'S the main attraction in the group. I don't it's fair to the other members. And I believe that if there was no truth to any of the rumors about this group, then things would have settled down by now. You reap what you sow. And I believe that the crowd at the game were booing them for SEVERAL reasons.

LEt me add in my $19.13. Has anyone ever noticed that Michelle and Kelly are ALWAYS giving Beyonce props and they never get anything in return?? Maybe it's just me, but if I was in a group situation, I would have loved to get my props every now and then instead of always blowing up one group member. Again, maybe that's just me.

I agree soror,

I heard them on Doug Banks one morning and he asked to speak to Kellie and the whole time she gave props to Beyonce. She never answered any of his questions. They are soooo trained and you can tell!!
That's just $19.13 worth
Sunshine

I alos believed they got booed for several reasons!!

We have to remember that the group is "Beyonze's Child", not "Destiny's Child". This group is headed my the Knowles family, and tehy are going to hype their daughter up, over the other two, now question!! Kelly and Michelle are just trying to keep in good graces with Beyonze, maybe so they stay a group a little longer.. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I was watching part of one of the mtv award shows(the most recent one). Has anyone noticed that beyonce never moves. She is always in the center. But if michelle or kelly speaks.. Beyonce does not move. And on magazine covers she gets her own little picture while the other two are sharing a pic. I am not hating.. but most girl groups are usually pictured together..u-n-i-t-y

DSTPRL posed this question and I think it's a good one:

Why are we as AA women "hating" on DC? Why the backlash?

Now my answer to this is: I can't find a AA woman YET that didn't love this group when they came out(rockin to bills bills bills, say my name, etc) but the drama of all the group changes PLUS the ex members talking about the Knowles family soured us on them.
And it ain't just us now, do you notice that AA men now aren't all over Beyonce? They are lookin at the other girls now. It just goes to show what men have always told me, a girl can look damn good and have a stank attitude, which is a turn off


QTE

I DIDN'T like DC when they first came out. I remember them BEFORE they made it big singing at a TSU vs. SU game in H-town...

I was like who is that? Then NO, NO, NO, NO, NO came out! I didn't/don't like them because I heard/hear them too much!

I think they come shady when it comes to how they handle business, but I think it's being a little too speculative to say who has what kind of attitude. I don't care much for Beyoncé, but she usually seems like a genuinely nice person. I don't know what goes on off-camera, of course... but in a twisted way, I guess that was my initial point. Did that make sense? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif I hate when I confuse myself. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

Destiny's Child...how much longer are they going to last. They are each going to do their own individual album........is that just the way of saying, we are breaking up? Dre Hill....Sisquo......when are they going to tame the dragon and do something together?

My roommate bought the DC CD Thursday and I talked about her so much because she spent her money on that CD. My actual words "You're going to spend your money on that garbage." Guess what I've been listening to all week-end. You got it, DC. The CD is pretty good with the exception of a few songs in the middle. Last night I fell asleep listening to Dangerously in Love and Brown Eyes.

Some of DC's stuff is addictive, me and my niece are jamming Bootylicious right now. (Bowing my head in shame) I didn't go buy it though, (broke college kid) I just Napstered the songs I liked. I do reccomend the Writings on the Wall though, I bought it and loved it. It was made in happier times..

I found this link to this little cartoon about yours truly, Beyonce. It's pretty funny. When you get the page, there will be a black box and the show should start up. Once it does, it'll give you 2 options: "Play Game" or "Watch Show"....click Watch Show. Enjoy!
p.s.--you gotta have sound!
Beyonce Cartoon

[This message has been edited by ZChi4Life (edited June 25, 2001).]

That cartoon is pretty funny.

(Wiping the tears from my eyes after that cartoon!) "Me me me me me me me me MEEEE"

LOL!

I'm cracking up at the part where she says, "There's me, that girl, and that other girl" http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Now see, Beyonce did not need to stand there and look at her butt in the mirror and sing "Me me me meeeeeeeeee and I I I IIIIIIIIIII" LOL

Great cartoon (and funny too). http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif I think that it clearly give a notion of what other people may be feeling about Beyonce's Child----I mean Destiny's Child.

Hey, I wonder if they (Destiny's Child) ever read or hear what's said on the internet about them?

Yeah, they do. Remember this...

Ok I have talked to some folks in other chats and boards and they had me dyin!

At the Hot 97 concert where they got booed, Beyonce asked "would you boo god?" and the crowd started singing church songs.

A radio show defined the "jelly" in bootylicious as the pouch beyonce is forming.


The clock is tickin folks, lol

qte

Destiny's Child came to a Houston high school once, one that is in the "hood" and they got booed there too.

I don't get it, they can SING, but is it their attitudes that get them booed or what?

My mother always told me that attitude is everything. It does not matter what you can do if your attitude is bad.

...and don't forget, its all about you!

As the song goes, I don't think you ready for this jelly
I don't think you ready for this
Cause my body too bootylicious for ya babe...!

She can't get enough of her booty!

I haven't bought DC's album yet, but my friend has it and let me listen to it and that remake they did "Emotions"?? I think, is really tight. It shows off their vocals really well. But I think the whole Beyonce conspiracy has held this group back from reaching their full potential and I hate to say it, but I think their 15 minutes is about up.

DITTO, Ladycat, DITTO!!!!! And the fact that their being compared to DIANNA ROSS & THE SUPREMES is not due to their TALENT, but to all of the mess that's going on within that group.

LAWD!

why has my radio station started playing a song called "I don't think you ready for this belly!" dedicated to Beyonce's belly, lol!

I told them about a soror saying that on blackplanet and they made a whole song about it, lol!

QTE

One of the radio stations here reported that Beyonce will be in playboy in 2002..

That's ironic because I was just browsing blackplanet and I noticed someone had a naked picture of Beyonce in their photo gallery. I was wondering if she really took the picture or if it was a computerized image.

Beyonce will do anything to get attention.

Here's their new song (lol!):

"Flabbylicious"

Jenny Craig, can you handle this?
Richard Simmons, can you handle this?
Weight Watchers, can you handle this?
I don`t think they can handle this!

I don`t think you ready for this jelly
I don`t think you ready for this jelly
I don`t think you ready for this
Cause my belly too flabbylicious for ya babe

It seems like folks are on a boo'ing spree when it comes to DC3. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

Sounds like the world is on a boo'ing spree. It is unfortunate. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

i know how some feel about gossip, but i just wanted to share this:

[i]everything aint kosher on the "TRL Tour," and ‘you know who’ is supposedly behind the madness. The tour, which is hosted by Beyonce’s younger sister Solonge’, features 3LW, Dream, Jessica Simpson, Eve, Nelly, and Destiny’s Child. Sources say Beyonce’ apparently attempted to have both Dream and 3LW thrown off the tour for unspecified reasons. She also supposedly attempted to have the pyrotechnics in Eve’s performance cut back because Destiny’s Child uses them in their show as well. Then sources say that Beyonce’ attempted to have each opening group’s performance time cut back to fifteen minutes, to allot more time for Destiny’s Child’s show. [i]

You know what....I happen to watch Disney Channel and there is this new black cartoon coming on called the Proud Family and DC3 +1 sings the title song.....and guess who the +1 is...Solange!!!! Referring back to the first post on this page from June 11, there may be a fourth member after all. Grant it, they can sing but there seems to be some underlying shadiness keeping them from reaching the highest they can reach.

Right under the words "Play Game" are the words "Watch Show".

I hope you find it.

...and like that I'm gone!!

Sorors...where is watch show? All I see is play game. I'm dying to see this!!!
