We may have the Spice Girls to thank if Destiny’s Child makes a comeback!
A music insider has shared with The Sun that Beyoncé was SO inspired by the successful group’s reunion tour in the UK earlier this summer, she’s looking to replicate it for her own girl band!

The source spilled to the pub:
“Beyoncé has been desperate to get the girls back together with her in the studio and she can’t think of a better time than 2020, when they will be marking two decades as one of the world’s biggest all-female groups. She saw the success of the Spice Girls tour and wants to replicate that — but far bigger and better.”
Bey is only one third of the group, but and Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams are in, the confidant explained:
“Beyonce has been meeting with Kelly and Michelle and discussing what they can do. It’s early days but they want to record new music and put it out alongside some of their biggest hits. They are one of the very few groups where love for them has only grown since they went on hiatus in 2006, so the demand is massive.”
So what’s the plan? The source divulged what the tour could entail:
“Then they want to do a tour which will be short enough for them to fit it into their schedules, but big enough to make sure all their fans can make a date to see them. As well as going around the US they want to play dates in Europe, including the UK.”

As we previously reported, Miz Carter’s father Matthew Knowles is teaming up with theater producer Je’Caryous Johnson on Survivor: The Destiny’s Child Musical — a bio-musical with its sights set on Broadway, London’s West End, and eventually… a world tour!
The new musical promises to provide “an honest depiction of the achievements, obstacles, and evolution of the world’s most iconic girl group and the mastermind behind them,” suggesting it will focus on both the girls and Bey’s dad.
Mr. Knowles further explained (below) his unique perspective as creator and manager of the group:
“I want to pull back the curtain. I feel it’s time to give the world an opportunity to hear, see and feel the victories and failures that I’ve had as a husband, father and manager who risked everything in pursuit of fulfilling dreams – those of mine and others.”
The three last reunited on stage for an EPIC Coachella performance last year, and fans have obviously been dying for more ever since. Seems like the musical and this potential tour will give us what we’ve been waiting for!
