    Destiny's Child reunites for Beyoncé's final Cowboy Carter show

    The two special guests — dripping in gold and introduced by Beyoncé as"Destiny's Child's, b---!" —  performed a medley of the groups's biggest hits.


    Destiny's Child has reunited for the first time in seven years during the final show of Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour. 

    Queen B welcomed her former band mates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams on stage in Las Vegas to perform a medley of the group's biggest hits, including 2001 hit Bootylicious and 2004 anthem Hold My Breath.

    The two special guests — dripping in gold and introduced by Beyoncé as"Destiny's Child's, b---!" — also helped to sing the hit Energy from the artist's seventh studio album Renaissance (also referred to as Act II: Renaissance).

    The performance marked the first time in seven years the chart-topping group has shared the stage together. 

    The last time they reunited was in 2018 during "Beychella", when Beyoncé' made history as the first black woman to headline Coachella.

    Fans were quick to flock to social media, dubbing the trio "the most legendary girl group of all time" and their performance "the perfect ending" to the tour. 

    The Texas Hold 'Em singer kicked off her highly anticipated Cowboy Carter tour in late April, taking her Grammy-winning album across stadiums in Europe and the US before closing out the historic tour in Las Vegas after 32 shows.

    She also welcomed her famous husband Jay-Z on stage to perform their 2003 song Crazy In Love and Shaboozey to perform their hit Sweet Honey Buckin.

    Beyoncé's finale would not be been complete without a special mention to her 13-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, who danced alongside her mother for nearly every song across the tour — winning over fans along the way. 

    What will be Beyoncé's Act III?

    Renaissance was Act I. Cowboy Carter was Act II. 

    "What if Act 3 features EVERYONE she did music with?" one user wrote on Instagram, referring to the three-part musical project by Beyonce, dubbed the "Renaissance trilogy". 

    It could happen.

    Beyoncé's last two albums, the house-inspired Renaissance and country-Americana Cowboy Carter, were the first and second in a planned trilogy of albums the artist made famous for challenging genre conventions. 

    "The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to propel past the limitations that were put on me," she wrote upon the release of Cowboy Carter. 

    "Act II is a result of challenging myself, and taking my time to bend and blend genres together to create this body of work." 

    Fans are convinced the third instalment will follow the same pattern in reclaiming a new genre — but are yet to know what that genre could be.
