There wasn't a camouflage bikini or co-ordinating crop top in sight as Destiny's Child reunited for Michelle Williams' new single. With a baby, two marriages and a possible pregnancy between them, the trio have well and truly grown up since their 1990s heyday. But they showed they still have the chemistry - and the moves - as they sang and danced together in the video for Michelle's single religious-inspired Say Yes. Well Kelly did say that Bey and Michelle were her soulmates and could "read her thoughts."
The fun vid features a colourful street party with former backing singer Kelly, 33, wearing a multi-coloured Aztec T-shirt and ripped up jeans. Later, she's seen in a long white dress dancing in a garden. Megastar Beyonce, 32, took time out from planning a joint tour with rapper husband Jay Z to perform with her old bandmates. Showing off waist-length braids, she wore a huge white poncho with a gold necklace as she sang a verse of Michelle's single.
Former X Factor judge Kelly Rowland, 33, has gone back to her familiar short crop for the video, as she danced and sang in a white mesh jumper. Despite hints that she's expecting her first child, there was no sign of a baby bump.
Just like the old days, the trio come together at one point to show off some new dance moves. Then the video finishes with the three girls hugging and laughing.
Showcasing her new single on Good Morning America, Michelle spoke about how thrilled she was to be working with Beyonce and Kelly again.
"I am just so moved by this moment right now and to have my girls on there," she said.
"Sometimes the director or production assistants had to say like, 'OK, girls, bring it back home. Bring it back together,' because when we were together, we go back to how we were when we were younger, just always laughing and talking about things."
And it seems that Beyonce - who recently donated $125,000 to help fund a life-saving invention for newborns - was just as pleased to be involved.
"It's Destiny’s Child time again," Beyonce told Rap-Up. "This song is so inspiring and it’s not enough music out there like this and I’m proud to be a part of it."
With so much else going on in their lives, the trio insisted that the reunion was a one-off.
Oh go on girls, you know you want to throw on those camouflage bikinis and belt out Survivor for one last Destiny's Child tour.
