From surprise albums, to shock videos, to unannounced performances, Beyonce certainly knows how to keep busy.

As earlier reported, the Pop royal’s latest venture sees her team up with car giant Toyota for their new ‘Get Going’ campaign.

The initial commercial unwrapped last month has now been revealed as one of three TV spots shot in support of the project, with the remaining two set to be rolled out over the year.

Directed by the formidable Melina, fans can now grab a behind the scenes look at the making of the ad.

Destiny’s Child may have gone their separate ways ten years ago, yet the ladies bond remains as strong as ever.

Members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams shared a shot of themselves hanging out on Instagram moments ago.

The break will no doubt be brief for the divas, who are each busy with solo endeavours. Indeed, Rowland is currently recording her fifth studio album and serving as the spokesmodel for Caress Skincare, while Williams is gearing up to take on a lead role in the 50-date arena tour of musical ‘Jesus Chris Superstar’. The Gospel belter is also readying new album ‘Journey To Freedom’, for release later this year.
