LeToya Luckett Fuels Destiny’s Child Reunion Reports

Published: Sunday 26th Jun 2011 by David

In what may be the most exciting news since Rihanna was said to be taking frequent vocal lessons , the reports that Destiny’s Child may be reuniting has been given further steam recently.

For one time  member Letoya Luckett has hinted at the fact that the possibility that the group may get back together.

Find out more below…

Speaking directly to GlobalGrind, Ms Luckett said in response to the speculation:

“Sure, I’d definitely do it.”

This comes less than a month after Beyonce thanked former colleagues LaTavia Roberson and LeToya during her Billboard Artist Of The Millennium acceptance speech.

For more than a decade, the scandal surrounding both Roberson’s and Luckett’s departure from the group has plagued the public’s perception of former manager, Mathew Knowles.

His alleged preferential treatment of his own daughter, Beyonce and close friend Kelly Rowland is said to have either caused Luckett and Roberson to leave  or have them fired from the group that the latter helped to form.

In recent years, Rowland and Luckett have openly discussed their rekindled friendship.

Whilst the concept of all five ladies getting back together sure to be a hot topic for time to come, it is worth wondering how a reunion of sorts could take place without embarrassing members who time has not been so kind to.

    that flop juice reaching as usual. all that was said is that she’d be up for a destiny’s child reunion. doesn’t mean it’ll happen

  2. jay June 26, 2011

    honestly its really nice that all the ladies et on and support each other, but Destinys Child to me is Beyonce Kelly & Michelle, no need for them to bring any old members back, it is as good as it is.

  3. YOOSONDALOOSE June 26, 2011

    That would be weird, 5 DC members, but not forever maybe for a song or two. I don’t know what I think. I like DC3 best!

  4. NIKKI AND MARY 2011 June 26, 2011

    AND THIS IS NEWS WHY?..SHE MAKES ONE QUOTE AND U DRAG IT INTO A FULL REUNION ARTICLE. THE RUMORED REUNION IS DOES NOT EVEN INCLUDE LATAVIA AND LATOYA. GRAPEJUICE FAIL SMH

  5. Jazmine June 26, 2011

    DC3 is the best lineup .
    ” …Most exciting news since it was announced that Rihanna was taking voice lessons .. “

    OMG IT WOULD BE F****** AMAZING

    COULD YOU IMAGINE THE F****** HARMONIES WITH BEY, KELLY, MICHELLE, LETOYA AND LATAVIA OMFGGGG YAAAS YAAASS YASSS

    I AM HOLDING ONTO MY SEAT JUST THINKING ABOUT IT

  7. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 26, 2011

    She said she WOULD do it, not that it will happen.I don’t like the idea anyway. And DC5 would be a HOT BURNING MESS.There will be no chemistry and, since there’s no way Beyonce is going to settle for less vocals, it will be Beyonce, a bit of Kelly, and 3 other girls on stage, sometimes doing background vocals, sometimes just standing there…NOOO

  8. KATIECurrent12345 June 26, 2011

    I actually think that they should just realease maybe 2 or 3 songs together or at least do like a special 2 or 3 hour reunion show on Tv and talk about what happened with everything in the past so they can all really come together. That would be AMAZING to see. They are all very talented and i hope to see Latavia with a comeback solo career and album. I think it’s time for her to get her spotlight moment. I love them all 🙂

  9. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 26, 2011

    Aside from the fact that DC3 have been gone for 7 years, DC4 stopped existing 12 years ago. The masses don’t associate LeToya and LaTavia with the group.LaTavia was hardly visible anyway, so even the group’s fanbase may have forgotten her.

  10. jeremydante June 26, 2011

    this interviewer from the spotlight is not at all poised; seems so unprofessional.
    & just like kelly said, you took one thing she spoke on & made it a headline.

    hahahahaha stupid.

  12. FlopJuice June 26, 2011

    Former Prom Queen Knight Bee realised that her solo career is off, so she need her former back up singers to generate some interest under the name DC for her… cheap trick, girl.

  13. STEWIE June 26, 2011

    @flopjuice this aint got s*** to do with beyonce its was LETOYAAA who said it not beyonce, you just feel the need to bring her name up & make her the topic.

  14. I see June 26, 2011

    If destiny’s child wud go back it wud probably be three of them and If it were four then I would guess it wud beyonce doing a last preformance or something and then having all the destiny’s child people there.

    In what may be the most exciting news since Rihanna was said to be taking frequent vocal lessons—– Only you guys said that so this news must be very dry.

  15. B_stanning June 26, 2011

    THEY NEED TO LEAVE IT AS THE THREE THAT IT IS KELLY, BEY, MICHELLE

    BUT……

    WHY THE HELL WOULD THEY BRING ALL THIS UP RIGHT NOW

  16. MRGILLIAM June 26, 2011

    What about Farrah??

  17. Angela Wesley June 26, 2011

    I would love to see the original Destiny Child with Latoya and Latvia. I like Michele too but
    she is not one of the original members so she should not be in the reunion. If there is a
    reunion it is only because Beyonce new album isn’t doing so well. That is why she is
    trying to reconnect with Kelly and some of the old members of the groups. She wants
    to be in the spotlight all time and if any of the girls are doing good like Kelly, she tries
    to steal their shine which is a shame.

  18. TNAiPM June 26, 2011

    Would be great to see them all together again! – Follow me on Twitter – http://adf.ly/1IF2E

  19. Queen Beyonce Stann June 26, 2011

    Why Would They Get The First 2 That Got Kicked Out?
    & I Love Beys Attitude In The First Video 😀 You Can Tell She Was Gonna Be Big!!
    BTW, It’s Funny How Kelly Just Goes With Whatever Bey Says!!

    I think you are making false conclusions on hearsay. To me Letoya’s answer was like “Sure, I’d definitely do it.” This means that she has not been asked to do a reunion but if the opportunity were asked of her she would do it if it he deal was lucrative. I think a real reunion is unrealistic. I could see Michelle and Kelly joining Beyonce on tour a couple dates like last that but a new album and group tour is very likely not going to happen. Beyonce is already a superstar so she has proven that she can sell records and hold her spot as a top entertainer as a solo act. Beyonce sharing the limelight again is not going to happen. Even when Destiny’s Child was around the group really should have been called “Beyonce and them.”

  21. Those That Cannot Do, Stan June 26, 2011

    They (all of them) would be damn fools, these women need to move on and let go. DC was the 2000’s they’re past history and it’d make all of them look kind if stupid pathetic to revisit high school sh.t now.

  22. Dev June 26, 2011

    Thanks, this has just reminded me why i never liked Beyonce or Kelly, they (Beyonce and Kelly) slagged off LaToya and LaTavia in Vibe magazine some years back. Although i never brought any destiny’s child albums after the writings… till destiny fulfilled i preferred the original members as i never really felt Michelle’s vocals fitted in

  24. JER June 26, 2011

    Now is the time for a reunion. A reunion in 3-5 years is out of the questions. A LOT of people are checking for a REAL Destiny’s Child reunion. They should release and EP. Destiny United for some s*** and focus on harmonies and great R&B tracks. Bring the FIRE. It’s now or never

  25. KNUCK June 26, 2011

    DC is one of the biggest groups of all time.. there is no “moving on” .. yes, their glory days are over, but everyone can benefit from revisiting a group/era that shaped their entire careers and childhood as WELL as our childhoods..

    And LeToya already said she would be open to a reunion like 2 years ago.. TGJ is pouring fraudulent tea, as usual, to get some views on the site. This post is so misleading and late. Shameful for someone who calls themselves a journalist.

  26. EVIL June 26, 2011

    MRGILLIAM

    Who gives twoo cents about her???? She didnt last LONG in the group . No one wants to see Ferret. She didnt do anything for the group but replace someone for 6 months ! DC3 AND DC5 would be hot . No DC5 including Farrah…. jus no

  27. WHYtheHateVusilovesB June 26, 2011

    Uhm I love DC maybe in concert not back together as a group sorry if Dc has to get back together it will be Bey Kelly and Michelle

  28. Harlem June 26, 2011

    That would be awesome….ALl the legendary Groups did it….SO why not Destiny Child………..

  29. Yachi June 26, 2011

    Funny some of u say that DC3 is better when the MOST successful album they had was Writings On The Wall with the original 4 (8 million sold). Not trying to start nothing, just making an observation.

    • leem February 5, 2013

      i agree, people neva wanna give letoya andf latavia props

  30. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 26, 2011

    @HACKI, You’re right!!But during their “TWOTW” era Destiny’s Child were just a successful band and not THAT popular worldwide.The era was successful, yet a burning mess, as the band that promoted the 1st 2 singles was different from the band that promoted the last 2.Survivor was the album that turned them from successful artists into budding icons

  31. tjack25 June 26, 2011

    I myself loved the ORGINAL group… Me being the same age as the girls, & being from Texas as well, I felt so connected to them when they 1st came out. Michelle is cool and all Ive grown to lover her alot, but when she came along I was truly upset the group split.

    I miss the original 4

  32. Jonathan Gardner June 26, 2011

    OMG It would be amazing!

    Could you imagine the harmonies with Bey, Kelly, Michelle, LeToya AND LaTavia???? OMFG yaaaaassss!

    I am holding onto my seat just thinking about it

  33. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 26, 2011

    My comment was actually @YACHI.

  34. James June 26, 2011

    The people who are saying Beyonce, Kelly, and Michelle were the best lineup are talking s***. The original lineup were the best. They had the best harmonies and the best music. Their first two albums were far better than Survivor and Destiny Fulfilled.

    • leem February 5, 2013

      no lie . dc4 was the best grouo eva

  35. The Man June 26, 2011

    They should release an ep with DC5, and entitle it (United We Stand). That would be great.

  36. Cyphers June 26, 2011

    So, her saying that she’d do it is a hint that they’re getting back together? I need a bit more evidence before I believe it.

  37. Misfit June 26, 2011

    @ James

    Co-sign. The harmonies, especially on the writings on the wall, are killer. They were one voice on those songs.

    I love dc3 also, but bey and kelly’s tone are so close, that michelle’s voice is sometimes, distracting…

  38. Dilanoh June 26, 2011

    Beyonce singing all lead=Nicole, a few minor parts for Kelly=Melodie, while the 3 others just be background…..sounds kinda like a PUSSYCAT DOLL Concert!

  39. Dunk June 26, 2011

    Latavia will never be allowed to set foot on stage with DC again Beyonce can not stand her, latoya was never the issue, she just happend to be best friends with Latavia and a lot of people don’t know but, Latavia was kicked out first before Latoya, when the girls came to perform on the Ian Wright show in the UK only 3 of them turned up woth no Latavia and i heard Beyonce arguing on the phone about Latavia acting up! All the girls Michelle and Kelly love Latoya and Beyonces mother even stoked her clothing line in Latoya’s LL clothing shops and helped her promote it. There is deffo a chance Latoya would be invited back to do a few numbers if they were to do a reunion tour, but never Latavia

    • leem February 5, 2013

      u all wrong . get it together

  40. Yellow Gorillah June 26, 2011

    Most exciting news since it was announced that Rihanna was taking voice lessons

    Looooool that rihanna shade made me LAUGH Out Loud sometimes sam is funny

    and I would LOVE a DC reunion I loved Destinys child. Letoya was my fav aswell!

  41. Beyonce and Cb fan June 26, 2011

    Yes! I’ll settle for DC3 or DC5 whatever as long has we get another Dc album and make it hot like DC fullfilled and more than 11 songs!

  42. Tiff June 26, 2011

    Don’t do it ladies! Bey is only doing this to spark interest in her own project since it’s been getting less than stellar reviews and not doing well on the charts. Talented or not, people are sick of her and this is just a way for her to get some more interest.

  43. nice_gurl June 27, 2011

    I don’t think this would be very good. Bey’s on a different level now and she would be the one with most parts anyway. Though I love Destiny’s Child, maybe they could just do a reunion concert.

  44. lola June 27, 2011

    I would just like for Latavia, LeToya, and Farrah to air out all the dirty laundry about Mathew and talk about what really happened! We all know he and Beyonce did them wrong. This is why I can’t stand Beyonce… she always had to be the leader of the group and outdo everyone. Why the hell would she agree to that? Tina used to always dress her the best and made sure she had the best hairstyles while the others just looked all right. Beyonce is just greedy and selfish. She didn’t even care to slow down when she knew she was going to get back with DC3. I am still saddened and shocked that a bunch of comedians joked about Beyonce and “the girls.” How f*ked up is that? They all worked their a*sses off! They all spent hours learning choreography, taking voice lessons, and working out!
    The only reason why Beyonce is this famous, successful entertainer is because her daddy did everything he could to get her in the spotlight. He pushed her so hard and let’s not forget about him being on the damn Grammy committee! Had he did what he did to get Beyonce to be a brand with Kelly and Michelle’s careers, they would’ve been just as famous. People say Beyonce is so amazing and sh*t when she’s not. Rihanna and Katy both prove that with amazing marketing and the right image, anybody and everybody can be famous!

  45. J to the Da June 27, 2011

    This will happen when Justin goes back to Nsync and Diddy stops screwing people on his label over.

  46. Teddy June 27, 2011

    Hmmm i still wonder how the original 4 got along cuz LeToya iz a fire cracker and LaTavia, i can tell she was more of the drama and always plays the victim. I would jus wanna see Bey, Kelly, Michelle, and LeToya … I dont think LaTavia is needed. Wait i take that back thats mean. Everyone has had there solo spot light exceptt her so yea let her sit with us lol. But 5 girls … mmm not for a album jus a cute performance of their hits and there solo work

    • leem February 5, 2013

      u dont even no latavia kelly even said she was humble texan . so stop makin s*** up

  47. James June 27, 2011

    Dunk, Beyonce only just thanked Latavia for her contributions to the group the other day. From what I heard, Letoya was the problem in the group, not Latavia, although if I had to pick out of the two members I would guess that Latavia would probably be the problem in the group out of anyone. I don’t believe that Beyonce would stop Latavia from getting on stage and I believe that for them to really pull off a decent DC reunion, they would need all 5 members there (no Farrah, she has absolutely no business being there because she did f*** all for the group). The only other way a reunion will be successful would be to allow ALL 5 members to sing lead parts on whatever project they do, whether its an album, a tour, or a one off performance. I don’t just want to hear Beyonce, I want to hear them all. OK I think I said enough.

  48. James June 27, 2011

    And for the record Teddy, Latavia sang solo on The Writing’s on the Wall.

  49. SHESDUMB THE OFFICIAL SLAYER OF “S***” AND “HAIKU” June 28, 2011

    THEIR REUNION IS BORING, AND WOULD BE BORING SIMPLY EBCAUSE BEYAWNCE WAS THE ONLY SUCCESSFUL ONE AFTER THE GROUP DEPARTED. IF THEY ALL WERE SUCCESSFUL AND BIG NAMES, THEIR REUNION WOULD BE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED INSTEAD OF JUST BEING “RUMORS”
