It must be a part of human nature to love drama. We never would have sold as many records -- and we never would have been this popular -- if our member changes did not happen. Up until that point, we were squeaky-clean nice girls who couldn't get on the cover of any magazines. 
--Beyoncé Knowles
They're beautiful, they're talented, they're bootylicious . . .
From first kisses and broken hearts to pillow fights and legal battles to losing friends and finding strength in God, Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams share it all. Their example of survival has made Destiny's Child one of the most beloved, bestselling female groups ever. 
Here for the first time, the three share the struggles that have made them stronger, from Beyoncé's battles with weight loss and shyness, Kelly's coming to terms with growing up without a dad, and Michelle's triumph over grade-school bullies. They've grown up under the media microscope, and have had to deal with lineup changes and media rumors. Now they set the record straight. 
The demands and drama, the schedules and scrutiny -- from the tour bus to the dressing rooms to backstage at awards shows, Beyoncé, Kelly, and Michelle talk about what it takes to be successful. Whether it's changing outfits in the rain, changing their hair color, or changing a name, they've done it. 
Don't be mistaken, they're not a prefab group of young girls -- they're smart, independent women with a lot of soul. When these ladies had only minutes of studio time to work with Wyclef Jean to remix one of their songs, they didn't stress, they just started singing faster -- and the result was a unique sound that put them on the map. Everyone has caught on to the Destiny's Child groove -- Whitney Houston, Bono, and Michael Jackson have all given them props, and the King of Pop himself serenaded them with a rendition of “Bootylicious.”
Beyoncé, Kelly, and Michelle take you behind the scenes of a video rehearsal at which Aaliyah rewound their practice music, to the set of Austin Powers 3, where a starstruck Beyoncé felt anything but foxy before auditioning for the part of Foxxy Cleopatra, and backstage at the Grammys, where a last-minute costume change fiasco nearly kept Michelle from going onstage. 
With total honesty, these soul survivors not only dish the details of their past, but share their hopes, plans, and dreams for the future.

Supergroup Destiny's Child reveal the fascinating story of how they rose above personal and professional obstacles to achieve their dreams. Destiny's Child is one of the most popular and bestselling female groups of all time. Their first album sold over 9 million copies worldwide and was followed by a highly successful second album - Survivor, which sold a record-breaking 3 million copies during its first two months on release. Their phenomenal success has not been achieved without its fair share of hardship and heartbreak. Most famously they've had to deal with litigious ex-members of the band and the headlines that ordeal entailed. From humble beginnings practising dance routines in Beyonce's mother's hair salon in the early days, their faith, talent and love of performing have catapulted them to the height of fame. Their music, message and experiences have fascinated legions of fans, and now they have the chance to set the story straight. This inspirational tale is the official history book that their fans have been waiting for.
