Farrah Franklin
Ex-Destiny’s Child singer Farrah Franklin might be one of the people to turn away from the television during Super Bowl XLVII. In 2010 Franklin dished on her displeasure with the group after Matthew Knowles and an army of Beyoncé’s relatives showed favoritism.
“There’s a lot of things I didn’t understand at 18 and there’s a lot of things I knew, that [the girls] didn’t understand. [Hiring family] gives a little favoritism,” she told VIBE. “[In Destiny’s Child] I felt like I was put aside… Matthew [Knowles] was our manager, then Tina [Knowles] did hair and styling, then our road manager was Beyonce’s cousin, then our assistant road manager was Beyonce’s other cousin, then we had an attorney that was Beyonce’s other cousin, and Solange that was traveling with us. Her whole family was on tour with them…If there was someone else I could’ve spoken to outside of the family, I think it would’ve been a lot better.”
