? Rowland took time to explain to LAUNCH how the group got its name:
"Well, we got it from the Bible, the word 'destiny,'" she said.
"Beyonce's mom was reading the Bible one day and at the time we were
looking for a name. And she was looking in the book of Isaiah, and
right up under the word 'destiny' was a picture of us. We are very
much Christians and we totally believe and have faith in God. And we
believe that He sent us that name. We used the name for a little
while, but we found out that other groups had it. And we tried to
switch it up, so we made it Destiny's Child."

From Anecdotage.com:
?In 2003 Destiny's Child vocalist Beyonce Knowles celebrated the
Fourth of July in New York City. She was later harshly criticised by
Grant Monument Association president Frank Scaturro for performing
"lascivious choreography" on the steps of former president Ulysses S
Grant's grave, backed by dancers who were barely dressed. "At that
location," Scaturro
complained in a letter to government officials, "a certain decorum
should have been observed from which popular entertainers are not
exempt."
Ulysses Grant Dietz, the late president's great-great grandson also
chimed in: "If they're doing a Fourth of July celebration and they're
doing it at a grave of a President," he said, "maybe they should look
a little more closely at what [the] performances are."
Among Beyonce's supporters? Much Music's George Stroumboulopoulous: "I
dont' mean to be disrespectful," he declared, "but if he was looking
up.. Hell of a view!"

?Destiny's Child vocalist Beyonce Knowles was once asked what makes a
man "Bootylicious." "The way he carries himself, the way he walks into
a room and he's, like, confident and cool and suave," she replied. "I
think Mr. Potato Head is kind of cute," she added, "if you give him
the right eyes, nose and mouth."
[Beyoncé apparently found fellow Texan George W. Bush bootylicious.
While playing at his inauguration (in 2001), Beyoncé hollered from the
stage: "I wanna hear you say Bush!" (Some time later, Destiny's Child
were famously booed at a concert organized by New York hip-hop
powerhouse radio station Hot 97.)]
