Latavia and Beyonce were almost a duo....

LaTavia Roberson was 1/4 of the group Destiny’s Child which we know already. Now she’s trying to establish herself as an solo artist and bounce back from years ago. After ten years out of the spotlight, the singer is finally speaking her truth. The “R&B Divas: Atlanta” star recently discussed her departure from Destiny’s Child, if she has any regrets about leaving the group and those pesky skin bleaching rumors. So on the skin bleaching she said. “People running around talking about I bleach my skin [laughs]. You know, I don’t know if it’s the blonde hair. But what a lot of people don’t know is that I used to—I’m a big, big, big, huge fan of tanning. I love to tan because I love the sun. I love the water. And once my mother got diagnosed with breast cancer—it was something that we used to do together—I definitely stepped back from that and I don’t tan as much.” She also had things to say about how she joined the group and if he’s bitter towards them. LaTavia also said, “One of the biggest misconceptions that I think people have about me is that I’m bitter about what happened with Destiny’s Child—and even that I’m bitter towards Mathew—it’s not that. It was business, totally. I would never trade anything in my life for my experience and my time with Destiny’s Child… ever, ever, ever in my life.” “I was in the group that became Destiny’s Child, but what a lot of people don’t know is that I was 7 years old when I tried out for the group. It was an open audition. That was the day that I met Beyoncé. “I met Kelly in elementary school. She was in the 5th grade, I was in the 4th grade and that was about five years later after we did those auditions. Then another year later, Beyoncé met LeToya in school and then it became us four.” - See more at: bossip.com/961344/latavia-roberson-talks-skin-bleaching-rumors-if-she-has-regrets-about-destinys-child/#sthash.p306cyyn.dpuf
