Welcome to The Destiny's Child Picture Pages!

This group of funky divas known as Destiny's Child has been jumpin' jumpin' up the charts and bumpin' bumpin' members along the way. When they first started out the band included Beyonce Knowles, her cousin Kelly Rowland, LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Robertson.

Their destiny began when eight-year-old Beyonce met LaTavia Robertson while auditioning for a kids singing group in Houston. Beyonce, LaTavia and LaToya were later recruited by Music World's Management, Matthew Knowles, who also happens to be Beyonce's father. Kelly joined the girls in 1992 - the same year they appeared on Star Search. Instead of showing off their incredible vocal harmonies on the show, they rapped!

Destiny's Child recorded the first album, entitled Destiny's Child, which spawned their 1996 hit No, No, No. A few months after the release of their second album, The Writing's On The Wall, LaTavia and LeToya left the group because of problems with their management. They were then replaced by Michelle Williams, who was a back-up singer for Monica, and Farrah Franklin, a dancer. But it wasn't long until Farrah kinda disappeared. She stopped showing up for promotional stuff and the group announced that she had "moved on." Despite the revolving members, 1999's The Writing's On the Wall really made people take notice. The CD included popular dance hits like Say My Name, Bills,Bills,Bills and Jumpin' Jumpin'.
