Which Destiny’s Child member joined the group after Farrah Franklin left in 2000?

Michelle Williams joined Destiny’s Child after Farrah Franklin left in 2000.

Destiny’s Child began in Houston as a girl group connected with Beyoncé and LaTavia Roberson. The early recording lineup also included Kelly Rowland and LeToya Luckett. After personnel changes, Farrah Franklin joined briefly in 2000, but she departed that same year.

Michelle Williams then became part of the group, creating the trio lineup most associated with Destiny’s Child: Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. This version recorded and performed during the group’s most commercially successful period, including the albums Survivor and Destiny Fulfilled.

A common mix-up is treating LaTavia Roberson and LeToya Luckett as members of the final trio. Both were important early members, but Williams was the member who completed the best-known three-person lineup after Franklin’s departure.
