Crowds were jumpin’ jumpin’ in Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium after Beyoncé surprised thousands of fans by briefly reuniting Destiny’s Child.
Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams joined Beyoncé onstage Saturday night during the final show of the “Cowboy Carter” tour, their first performance together in seven years. The women walked out together, clad in gold, while singing “Lose My Breath.”
The trio performed a brief medley that included smash single “Bootylicious” and one of Beyoncé’s own songs, “Energy.”
It was a rare reunion for the group, which disbanded in 2006 to pursue solo careers. The last time they were onstage together was in 2018 for Beyoncé’s headlining set at Coachella.
Beyoncé posted a photo of the women on her Instagram without a caption. The comment section was filled with love for the ’90s group and the women’s relationship after all these years.
“This is everything,” one comment said. “Pure friendship, sisterhood and allowing us to share that with you all is truly incredible.”
The surprise performance excited both fans in the stadium and those on the internet. Some expressed disbelief over what they just witnessed and others outrage that they weren’t there to see it for themselves.
“There are people who can say they’ve seen Destiny’s Child live in 2025 and I’m not one of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,” one X user wrote.
Even celebrities were excited about the surprise act. Bravo host Andy Cohen posted early Sunday that “the Destiny’s Child reunion videos are making my morning.”
Blue Ivy, the eldest daughter of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, took the stage right after the trio exited together. The 13-year-old has been dancing onstage for her mother’s show all tour.
Many saw symbolism in her entrance just after Destiny’s Child left the stage. Some on social media referred to the teen as the “child of destiny.”
“Destiny’s child passing the torch to Blue Ivy,” one person wrote. “A historic moment.”
