Solange Knowles is going to tour with big sis Beyonce

The women of the Knowles family are legendary divas. The kind that are best left together only at Thanksgiving dinners and occasions where lots of other people are around to calm them down and not give in to their demands. Unfortunately little sister Solange Knowles will be joining big sister Beyonce on her upcoming 110-date round the world concert tour.

Solange had made a big deal about carving out her own identity in the music world and would freak out if anyone even mentioned Beyonce to her. Clearly she’s learning to take what she can get, since I’m guessing people are going to have a lot to say about her big sister on her own tour.

Last week, Mathew Knowles broke the news that Beyoncé will embark on a 110-date world tour that will begin in April 2009 and trek through Canada, Europe, the U.S. (with a one-week stint in Las Vegas), Mexico, South America, Japan, Africa, and Australia. But what you didn’t hear was that Beyoncé won’t be the only Knowles on the road.

Discussions are under way for Solange to join her big sis’ on tour. After seeing the elder Knowles rock arenas, fans would be able to go to a more intimate location and watch Solange perform at an official “after-party.” Specific details have yet to be announced.

Beyoncé is scheduled to release her third album I Am… on November 18th, while Solange’s sophomore release SoL-AngeL and The Hadley St. Dreams is available now.

I cannot even imagine the kind of dramatics and hysterics that are going to come from this. It will be legendary. It will be the epic stuff that movies are made about twenty years later. I imagine a lot of House of Dereon clothes will be thrown out windows and lit on fire during fights. Along with the traditional hair pulling and crystal vase throwing.

They’re probably both lovely in their way, but Beyonce and Solange strike me as the kind of sisters that need their space. Definitely not the kind who should be working together in any way, shape, or form. Solange used to work as a backup singer for Destiny’s Child back in the day, and that seems to have created some resentment. But if nothing else I’m sure it’ll also create some great gossip.

  1. This one and Ali Lohan are remoras - those fish that attach themselves to sharks and feed on the little bits that get spit their way.

    Can anyone tell me why everyone poses pigeon-toed? Or like they’ve just had a spinal?

  2. This can only end badly….

    I thought she wanted to get out from her sisters shadow - not further into it.

    Who knows anything about her other than she is Beyone’s sister and she was a biatch in an interview. She is a head on train wreck.

  5. I saw this younger sister being rude at an interview. This is not a girl who will go very far, plus she doesnt sing very well. SHes rude, and what fame she does have or will get, will be because of her older sister, not because of her talenet. Of course she will be traveling with Beyonce…who else in their right mind would have anything to do with her crazy self. And her mouth, OMG. She just needs to go get a job at Burger King or something.

  6. Why would the father do this to Beyonce? He knows this is not going to turn out good. Why doesnt Beyonce’s hubby step in? This younger sister is a mess, and she will not help Beyonce’s career. People do not seem to like this Solange, she is rude and obnoxious.
    She will never be her big sister and she is going to make everyone suffer until she finaally realizes she is only where shes at because of Beyonce. If it wasnt for Beyonce, no one would know her or care. Shes a joke. How sad is that.
