LaTavia Roberson, the original member of Destiny’s Child, is currently making waves. SOHH had the opportunity to interview the former Destiny’s Child singer, during which she introduced a new era focused on healing and philanthropy.
The Le Papillon Foundation
On Sunday, December 17, LaTavia Roberson held a private screening of Beyoncé’s concert film, titled Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé, on behalf of her non-profit organization, Le Papillon Foundation, at the iPic Theater in Houston, TX. Before the private screening, Roberson shared prominent words as she stated:
“This is for my non-profit organization, Le Papillon Foundation, and that means the butterfly in French. And the reason why I like to reach out to young girls, is to just show them that no matter what, you are beautiful.”
A Mini-Reunion
LaTavia’s event brought together former Destiny’s Child member LeToya Luckett and other attendees to celebrate entertainment, healing, and growth through Beyoncé’s Renaissance film, which was released on Friday, Dec. 1. LaTavia highlighted the significance of the film and why she chose the film to screen, stating:
“What I got from it is how girls can see how she [Beyoncé] transformed what she had in her mind. It did not take her overnight, it did not take her all day. I want the girls to be entertained and to be educated.”
On behalf of LaTavia, it has been a “Renaissance,” for herself. The singer/entrepreneur has consistently prioritized her personal journey, envisioning the approaching year of 2024 as a period of “restoration and healing.” Roberson even states she’s working on new projects and that fans can look forward to seeing more of her when she says:
“Now it’s just my time and I’m ready to shine.”
This sentiment mirrors the theme emphasized in the concert film, where Queen Bey expressed that their reunion symbolized a “new birth” and a process of healing. In their hometown of Houston, TX, the original members of Destiny’s Child reunited at the Renaissance World Tour, where LaTavia attended the film premiere as well.
Blac Chyna Stars On ‘Special Forces’
Amidst the pursuit of healing, many public figures are stepping forward to share their experiences. Blac Chyna, for instance, recently opened up about her journey of self-growth on FOX’s reality show, Special Forces.
