Destiny’s Child is back, baby!
After months of fans speculating that Beyonce would reunite with Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams during her highly-anticipated Coachella performance in Indio, California, on Saturday, it finally happened!
The 36-year-old songstress kicked off her epic set, taking the stage in a sorority-inspired cheerleader outfit while backed by an full, enormous marching band. Belting “Crazy in Love,” Sasha Fierce was definitely the night’s show-stealer with just her first song — and an entire bleacher’s worth of back-up dancers and musicians didn’t hurt the epic scope of her grand entrance.
The moment that everyone was waiting for finally arrived mid-way, as her former band members arrived looking just as fierce as Queen Bey. The trio sang “Lose My Breath,” “Say My Name” and “Soldier.”

The last time Destiny’s Child performed together was during Beyonce’s Super Bowl halftime show in 2013. The reunion has been a long time coming after ‘Yonce was forced to bow out of performing at the festival in 2017 due to her pregnancy with twins Sir and Rumi Carter.
Beyonce addressed having to back out of Coachella during her performance on Saturday night.
“I was supposed to perform at Coachella before, but I ended up getting pregnant. So I had time to dream and dream and dream with two beautiful souls in my belly, and I dreamed up this performance,” she said.
She also talked about making history.
“Coachella, thanks for allowing me to be the first black woman to headline,” she said. “Ain’t that ’bout a b**ch?”
Beyonce’s incredible show drew overwhelming praise, including from a few celebrities in the audience.
I don’t think I’ll ever see a better show then the one I just watched Beyonce perform tonight. Iam shaken to my bones.
