Janay Beard bc they had press in a hotel room so like DC would just chill there and the interviewers would all take turns going in and interview them and like this was really early in DC so they didn’t have a big enough budget to have a better press interview set up
I don't really get it. I know that was one of her roles, but I thought the others actually spoke better than her. This is not the only interview where I've felt that.
Beyonce: "We were very serious...even before we were singing together, LaTavia was singing at her house on the fireplace, I was singing in competitions...we were really serious about it." Oh! Okay.
2:43 Beyonce is so full of it when she denies having been bossy or putting herself before the other members (instead of *with* them. She is shooting looks at Kelly like she wants to ring her neck; and when she couldn't catch her eye to intimidate her--she "cleared her throat" instead. BULLY. Why can't Kelly say she's even second lead. A bunch of reports and interviews mention that those two were the only ones who got to sing solo, although mostly Beyonce.
they all stated their roles in the group, it was the way Kelly stated it. just threw that shit out there ("annnd... that's about it!"). all three of them reacted, actually.
I can tell Beyoncé is very intelligent but also very shy. I think she wants people to notice her so she’s very cautious with what she says and how she may come off to others. She tries to say something that she thinks is agreeable or funny. Latavia is just a natural bubbly person No problem with either

No matter what happened to these girls through the whole Destinys Child debacle, they're all very talented vocalists and can each hold their own. Its good to see that Latavia and Latoya are re-connecting and building bridges with Kelly and Beyonce despite what happened those many years ago. Let love lead the way.
Well Letoya was talking and everyone was laughing then out of nowhere it was like the interviewer wasn't interested in her and he just suddenly moved on to someone else...Beyonce. It was kinda rude
So Latavia started the group. Smh! that's messed up! They had such a strong bond and I really hope they can have a reunion one day with the original members!
@@sunnybright8206 At minute 2:45 ; Beyonce pretend to cough, reacting to Kelly Rowland's comments about being the second lead vocalist of the Destiny's Child (DC4), Beyonce seemed to disagree, but in fact, Kelly was right, she was the second lead singer of the group ...
2:41 "Also I'm the 2nd lead vocalist in the group" - Kelly But Beyoncé with that fake ass cough is the only reason I'm here. But she gets what she deserves later when she starts talking and everyone else stops talking, laughing, smiling etc. this interview was a mess tbh 😂😂😂
@@SN-mq4ek exactly they all did shady shit during interviews but they all just tend to look for beyonce throwing shade so much that they don't pay attention to the other ladies doing sneaky crap.
LaToya & Latavia outshined everyone tremendously. I mean if I’m watching this and not knowing who they are I’m remembering the 2 in the middle. Latavia comes off as such a leader. Very articulate. Beyoncé is studying her here.
Not studying her it’s just that Beyoncé can’t really speak lol she was very country and not articulate at all. Matter of fact she was least articulate out of the whole group. I think that’s the reason she doesn’t do many interviews now bc of People calling her uneducated.
@@showgamez5257 I'm not trying to paint Bey as anything. I'm just guessing what could've been the reason people were removed. You are the only one in this thread that stated she's a bad person.
@@showgamez5257 no you saw what you wanted to see and just wanted to argue with someone, just be quiet next time. Her dad was running the group, we all know who was kicking people out.
“She was singing at home on the fireplace and I was singing at competitions” 😭😭😭 Hi I’m back a year later, i just noticed that kelly had her head down and laughed after she said that 😭😭😭 6:16 🤣🤣🤣 I could tell those two had an inside joke
So im a psychology major in my third year and here is my body language assessment. LaTavia and LeToya seem to have a closer relationship in this moment. Kelly seems to be on the outs with the ladies. They seem annoyed by her. LeToya seems as though she is either tired or doesnt not want to be there though she is trying to hide it. LaTavia seems to be eager to speak with the reporter. Beyonce seems to be aware of her portrayal in this interview and she is doing her best to be apart of the LeToya/LaTavia dynamic while also keeping the status as lead
Briah Johnson I think you are right but I see it slightly different. I see Kelly as being indifferent. I think she is the one that is most balanced. Latvia and Letoya are most agreeable when she speaks. But when Beyonce speaks everyone stops smiling or either forces the smile and seem to be disingenuous and uninterested in what she has to say. Latakia is most articulate so you can tell she really had a vision and passion for the group.
i believe latavia spoke with eagerness because she is the spokes person she never sings solely though she helped start the group.... which means she takes her job seriously as main speaker
All of the red hair styles sucked, especially that red Lord Farquaad wig. She rocks black curls which is why she looked much better during the Destiny Fulfilled era
@@simplymonica6888 she was cute with this short hair she stood out that was why she told Tina she wanted a " signature " look so she would get noticed in a group of 4 women.
Letoya and Latavia are the most likeable and genuine, probably why they did not make it past DC as the music industry are full of vipers and you have to be machiavellian and cut throat without morals to make it. You can see that Beyonce is very ambitious and actually is the least likeable in this interview. She is all business. It is what it is.
Hate it or love it! Queen Bey pulled a little something she liked out of each of her sisters. I will forever love these four beautiful women for their contributions to music and culture! As a group, as individuals - Destiny's Child is legendary. AND Don't sleep on Michelle either! DC4 and DC3!!!
Beyonce being a "perfectionist" is what got her to where she is today. She practices & practices her craft until its perfect.. Which is why shes one of the greatest!

Nope Beyoncé was shy and maybe was told she needed to work on speaking. so she also comes across as insecure and lacking in personality in all of her DC interviews with the 4 of them. Without Matthew as the manager, Latavia would have been the leader. Does that make her the hardest worker? No but she could hold down an interview & seemed to be the most mature. Beyoncé was definitely studying her here.
Sharhonda Johnson there was always something special about Beyoncé . I've watched pretty much all their interviews from the very beginning and a pretty good chunk of interviews kind of favored her . Want saying she was "important " here ( everybody's important 👌🏾) ...just acknowledging the fact that each girl had to describe herself except Beyoncé ...the interview acts as if he did a little research before or that he'd heard about her facts to point where he knows them . No shade to any of them ❤️
@@trackboyheavyd2 he said by process of elimination ...so he knew the names but didn't know who was who and so by process of ELIMINATION he guessed the last girl that didn't speak yet must have been Beyonce.
Now I see why kelly said she was not ready to leave the group, she was in love with dc bc you really can tell that she really depended on the group to be there for her and she really didn’t want the group to stop I guess she had to agree with it because everybody else did
watching this in May 2020, a 1998 kid. and I feel like their songs are so powerful & still relevant. even in the next 100 years their songs will be as relatable and relavant. ❤️Love From South Africa 😍🙌
Beyoncé definitely saw Letoya as competition. She came closer to her in the looks department. Imagine if she stayed for Say my name, survivor. She would’ve been huge as Kelly or Beyoncé
But she herself said recently she didn't have the drive even back then, that Beyonce had. She lived and breathed perfecting her craft. It's safe to say that Beyonce would still be where she is had the original 4 stayed together.
I just love how When Beyonce said we're in love with each other she wasn't letting nobody grab her hand she tryna get too Latavia hand that's Bestfrann goals right there Fr.
Kelly was always my least favorite, I grew to like her eventually. Thought she was kinda snobby in the beginning. I thought Beyonce was just ok' at first, like ok she's the lead, but whatever. Letoya to me was just silent eye candy, but Latavia had me goin,' had a crush from jump
@ 2:43, watch Beyoncé's reaction to Kelly saying she is the 2nd lead vocalist. she looks like she could choke he; she coughs in disagreement; then, she widens her eyes. This was the inequity of the group. it was Beyoncé, and "the others." Mathew set it up that way, but obviously and with longevity, Beyoncé took to it.
my favorite female group of all time no matter what. I think there was some shade on each of their parts. By the look of this video B always knew she would be the lead boss in this group everyone else just followed along with the cause. Regardless of their demise it appears they really cared for each other.
I think they were really friends too sadly the business ruined their friendship and it's sad that the fans still want these women hating each other until this day it makes no sense at all it's b.s.
LaTavia was one grade below the latter three in school due to when her birthday falls on, so she was the Class of 2000 while the rest were the Class of 1999.
As amazing dc3 were I really wish I could enter another universe where these lot never broke up just to see what they’d become. They’re all so happy and they’re laughing a lot...it’s also so lovely these lot were together since they were 9 so they’re immensely close. Plus these girls were so young and didn’t deserve the hate and drama that came their way due to the breakup.
Cocoa Chanel hold up hold up say it louder for the people in the backkkk!!! Letoya and Latavia was the real OG’s they fine and have good personalities 😌👏🏽
@@TruBeauty15 It wasn't cuz she stood out that was strategically done most likely by Matthew. It's all about presentation and perception. We should know this by now. Back then we weren't privy to the behind the scenes bs like we are now with social media and going back to old videos like this on YT. She didn't stand out and wasn't outspoken like the rest. But her father made sure to make her SEEM like she was the one. Hence why he made her the lead.
Y’all are so corny. So she wanted no competition with them but in 2 albums with them and performed all around the world until THEY separated themselves form the group ? Beyoncé didn’t fire them lmaoooo
Latavia, Latoya & was treated wrongly especially Farrah, but what do you expect, when family managed the group. Obviously they wanted tobe treated equally & not tobe controlled.
@@DetroitRed03 exactly he didn't really owe them anything he gave up a 6 figure job because he believed they would be stars they should be grateful none of the other people would have done that for them.
To be honest Letoya stood out more than beyonce. Management boosted beyonce confidence and career. The 2 girls that left should have right off the bat went into solo mode. They shouldn't have left the scene for as long as they did
@@COSMICCFREQUENCY144 if those were the internet days then maybe id call them a flop but it was pure sabotage behind the scenes. nobody could find those girls after destiny child.
It’s sad to know that these young girls who were friends since they was 10 & 11 and even younger then that for Bey and latavia since they been best friends almost most of they life , lost an entire sisterhood because of overgrown adults …. Not only that why I love DC3 but DC4 had so much to offer and I really wanted to know what they would’ve been like had they not broke up like the girls really was hitting off w/ hits since they break up right in the middle
You know what this clip really brought tears to my eyes and it really makes me cherish the love not only the love between young people but just the love that you have with n for another person
This is why TLC was the most successful and better group. There was real sisterhood and everybody was allowed to contribute. No micromanaging between the three
So I finally watched the video all the way through and bey coughed and cleared her throat multiple times towards the middle / end of the interview ....I know young bey was lowkey shady , but seems like she really just had a little cough going 😂🤷🏽♀️
and that look on her face after the cough seemed like "oops/embarrassment" for coughing loudly interrupting the interview. She looked at someone in the distance to see if they were looking at her
Raise your hand if you're here for the cough lmao
Sam Guppy Beyonce was showing some shade to Kelly when she said she was the second vocalist🙀🙀🙀🙀

Amy Zorah Kelly too. She had long hair but they decided to go with a shorter look for her. Long hair doesn’t equal to good hair.
Their hair were relaxed which I loved.
When bey was the only one who didn't have to introduce herself 😂😂😂😂
Joy Mechell nobody know her like that back then, she just wasn't important
Sharhonda Johnson there was always something special about Beyoncé . I've watched pretty much all their interviews from the very beginning and a pretty good chunk of interviews kind of favored her . Want saying she was "important " here ( everybody's important 👌🏾) ...just acknowledging the fact that each girl had to describe herself except Beyoncé ...the interview acts as if he did a little research before or that he'd heard about her facts to point where he knows them . No shade to any of them ❤️
Joy Mechell of course, she was the last one to speak so she’d probably be Beyoncé.
He introduced kelly and then said “with process of illumination” I think he wanted to get passed that part ahahaha
@@trackboyheavyd2 he said by process of elimination ...so he knew the names but didn't know who was who and so by process of ELIMINATION he guessed the last girl that didn't speak yet must have been Beyonce.
This interview makes me uncomfortable, seeing these teenage girls being interviewed in a hotel bed.
Jay Smart facts
Why?
Now I see why kelly said she was not ready to leave the group, she was in love with dc bc you really can tell that she really depended on the group to be there for her and she really didn’t want the group to stop I guess she had to agree with it because everybody else did
And I luv her so much I just wish she would show her talent and her gift more on her on like she was in dc
@@troydaleshow5441 she wasn't confident at first producers used to yell at her and at one point tried to remove her from the group.
watching this in May 2020, a 1998 kid. and I feel like their songs are so powerful & still relevant. even in the next 100 years their songs will be as relatable and relavant. ❤️Love From South Africa 😍🙌
Beyoncé definitely saw Letoya as competition. She came closer to her in the looks department. Imagine if she stayed for Say my name, survivor. She would’ve been huge as Kelly or Beyoncé
Kelly is not huge like Beyonce. Beyonce is the standard. A star vocalist and best performer
Came close? She was just as beautiful. All of these women were stunning!
You’re delusional
But she herself said recently she didn't have the drive even back then, that Beyonce had. She lived and breathed perfecting her craft. It's safe to say that Beyonce would still be where she is had the original 4 stayed together.
I just love how When Beyonce said we're in love with each other she wasn't letting nobody grab her hand she tryna get too Latavia hand that's Bestfrann goals right there Fr.
I noticed that as well.
That was her true bestie that’s why they’re always so emotional talking about each other
My favorite lineup of DC
Beyonce was stunning, even back then!
Right
Why does it look like Kelly and bey are barely on the bed 😂😂😂💀💀 tavia and toya look so comfortable
matthew.Destroyed the group Im sure just based off how startled beyonce looked.when.he set her apart from.the.Others Matthew. advised that im sure
well yea they where kids kids can't come up with lies like dat I'm 15
Excatly I agree with you on that
Y'all act like "clout" is a new word 🤦🏽♂️ everyone been saying "clout" don't let Cardi and Offset make you think they made that word up 😏
Right
Rappers were saying 'Clout Chaser/Chasing' more recently before Cardi B and Offset made that lit hit song. 🤷🏾♂️
It’s in the dictionary
Lol, South Africans think it's new😂well me too before i watched this video. May 2020!
Big facts
so sad they failed to make their own music studio
Kelly was so corny back then. LOL. She was trying so hard to be funny.
Kelly was always my least favorite, I grew to like her eventually. Thought she was kinda snobby in the beginning. I thought Beyonce was just ok' at first, like ok she's the lead, but whatever. Letoya to me was just silent eye candy, but Latavia had me goin,' had a crush from jump
Jamaal A. Bivens I was looking at all the girls I noticed all of them in this video
Is Beyonce still friends with LeToya and LaTavia?
Imani Hayes they're in good terms,but not friends like they uaed to be.
Jamaal A. Bivens she was literally a child 15-16 yrs olds are silly n playful
like dang i can't believe Beyoncé was only 15 when they recorded their first album
17
Idona Johnson she was 15
Khobi Tyler 1998 she was 17
Idona Johnson when their first album came out, the album that they are talking abt, beyonce was 15.
Khobi Tyler how bout u just ask Beyonce then just to clear things up
I like this classic of the DESTINY'S CHILD interview cause I love all their music so much I wish that I I could record this old school stuff by them
@ 2:43, watch Beyoncé's reaction to Kelly saying she is the 2nd lead vocalist. she looks like she could choke he; she coughs in disagreement; then, she widens her eyes. This was the inequity of the group. it was Beyoncé, and "the others." Mathew set it up that way, but obviously and with longevity, Beyoncé took to it.
They had those thick texas accents
9:10 “Unappropiate???” 😂😂😂
Lmaooooooooooo
Bye!!!!!!!!!!!
It's time for all the members to do a reunion tour before they get old old
I really hope so. That would be such a full circle moment.
my favorite female group of all time no matter what. I think there was some shade on each of their parts. By the look of this video B always knew she would be the lead boss in this group everyone else just followed along with the cause. Regardless of their demise it appears they really cared for each other.
I think they were really friends too sadly the business ruined their friendship and it's sad that the fans still want these women hating each other until this day it makes no sense at all it's b.s.
LOL they were ALL 16 in this video. They tried to get out of that "you're 18" question real fast.
Latavia was the youngest and was dating a JE member who was much older than her. It was actually a crime, hence why they hid it so much.
This makes me sad. They really loved each other
Thanks Vancouver Visitor this was a great classic I live for classic Destiny's Child footage.
Latavia was singing at the fire place and I was singing at concerts 😭ohhh B the shades 😎
I caught that
How was that shade ? Y’all are annoying omg
Ok I caught that shade lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love this interview. They were so close.
tension was all in that room, OMG 😯😯
So Latavia met Kelly and Beyoncé met Latoya. They all met in their respective elementary schools.
LaTavia was one grade below the latter three in school due to when her birthday falls on, so she was the Class of 2000 while the rest were the Class of 1999.
Weather update
@@chidiebereuchime2729 they were all born in 81 that’s interesting
@@carmelchul0 Yes. It's crazy that they were all born the same year
As amazing dc3 were I really wish I could enter another universe where these lot never broke up just to see what they’d become. They’re all so happy and they’re laughing a lot...it’s also so lovely these lot were together since they were 9 so they’re immensely close. Plus these girls were so young and didn’t deserve the hate and drama that came their way due to the breakup.
Everybody: 😂☺️😄😆
Reporter: You Obviously are Beyonce.
Kelly Latavia Letoya: 😒🤨😒😑😐🙄
That cough is legendary!😂
Beyoncé coughed about 20 times in this video tho.... so I don’t think it’s shade towards Kelly they are sisters
Aiyisha and she only coughed once
At 5:08 watch LeToya's facial and body expressions change when Beyonce started answering the interviewer's questions.
But a second b4 that, she shimmys into Beyoncé as if tryin to make her laugh..
Letavia is a jealous hag!
And yes I'm a part of the Beehive but I'm going to be honest with myself Beyonce was her best self with these girls
Nope. She did not want any competition and CLEARLY these girls are competition. Facts! She stands out not one bit here. Period.
Cocoa Chanel hold up hold up say it louder for the people in the backkkk!!! Letoya and Latavia was the real OG’s they fine and have good personalities 😌👏🏽
@@BlkOnyx0508 she was the only one that didn’t have to introduce herself. She stood out lol
@@TruBeauty15 It wasn't cuz she stood out that was strategically done most likely by Matthew. It's all about presentation and perception. We should know this by now. Back then we weren't privy to the behind the scenes bs like we are now with social media and going back to old videos like this on YT. She didn't stand out and wasn't outspoken like the rest. But her father made sure to make her SEEM like she was the one. Hence why he made her the lead.
Y’all are so corny. So she wanted no competition with them but in 2 albums with them and performed all around the world until THEY separated themselves form the group ? Beyoncé didn’t fire them lmaoooo
Latavia, Latoya & was treated wrongly especially Farrah, but what do you expect, when family managed the group. Obviously they wanted tobe treated equally & not tobe controlled.
Exactly, obvioysly Mathew is gonna show favouritism to Beyoncé, that’s his daughter! He did what he had to do to make his daughter a star.
@@DetroitRed03 exactly he didn't really owe them anything he gave up a 6 figure job because he believed they would be stars they should be grateful none of the other people would have done that for them.
The question should be why are they being interviewed sitting on a bed?
Right..
it's probably where they were staying. it was early in their career and artists (especially black/"urban") used to interview anywhere then.
They go back. Like they really grew up together. Too bad it didn’t last, but I’m happy they can be cordial. I’m happy I grew up during this era
4:59 letoya lol i love her
To be honest
Letoya stood out more than beyonce. Management boosted beyonce confidence and career. The 2 girls that left should have right off the bat went into solo mode. They shouldn't have left the scene for as long as they did
Once again, do research. They went into another group and It flopped
@@COSMICCFREQUENCY144 if those were the internet days then maybe id call them a flop but it was pure sabotage behind the scenes. nobody could find those girls after destiny child.
"We don't want to be divas...fast forward 2008 "diva" 🎼
My inspiration I’m definitely gonna sing and dance more now
beyonce even now tries to talk like Latavia.
Did everyone catch Beyoncé’s face after Kelly said she’s the second lead vocalist, she coughed and made a face🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Being too much of a perfectionist is a great thing......that's one of the reasons why she is on top today.
It’s sad to know that these young girls who were friends since they was 10 & 11 and even younger then that for Bey and latavia since they been best friends almost most of they life , lost an entire sisterhood because of overgrown adults …. Not only that why I love DC3 but DC4 had so much to offer and I really wanted to know what they would’ve been like had they not broke up like the girls really was hitting off w/ hits since they break up right in the middle
letoya was so annoyed by beyonce 😂😂😂
Kia Bell jealous
Jokwon1 why would letoya need to be jealous??
Eyes rolling in the back of her head lol
Aiyisha Anderson haaaaaah she knew 😂
I noticed her uneasy demeanor. I think it was jealousy
2:41 you can't deny that cough!!!😂😂
2021 anyone?
So simple and raw this interview (it's kinda shady cause we're watching now,but it's harmless)...
So damn beautiful!!😍😍
You know what this clip really brought tears to my eyes and it really makes me cherish the love not only the love between young people but just the love that you have with n for another person
Judging by Beyoncé's face, she's always "guarding" the comments of the other girls. She has this controlling vibe. Her answers were kinda dumb also.
Fr I feel like she thought she was better than all of them
This is why TLC was the most successful and better group. There was real sisterhood and everybody was allowed to contribute. No micromanaging between the three
@@TKC12fultlc fell out with left eye before she died though
So I finally watched the video all the way through and bey coughed and cleared her throat multiple times towards the middle / end of the interview ....I know young bey was lowkey shady , but seems like she really just had a little cough going 😂🤷🏽♀️
and that look on her face after the cough seemed like "oops/embarrassment" for coughing loudly interrupting the interview. She looked at someone in the distance to see if they were looking at her
