Michelle Williams is tired of being perceived as the quiet and talentless member of Destiny’s Child. Apparently, Michelle has jumped on the acting bandwagon and has scored the role of Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago at Cambridge Theater in London. However, Michelle is really adamant about putting her DC3 days behind her and wants the world to realize that she’s a force to be reckoned with. She says,
“I’m a humble, down-to-earth, funny, smart, young lady. I didn’t just want to be a pop star, thinking she could act. I wanted to be taken seriously. I don’t want you to see Michelle from Destiny’s Child when I’m on stage. I want you to see Roxie Hart. I don’t want anyone thinking, ’she got the role because she was in the group’. No! I actually had to go and audition. They didn’t just give it to me, so I’m happy that I did go for it.”

As for her DC3 days, Michelle understands that nothing lasts forever and she insists that she’s able to cope with not being in a group anymore.
“You know, some things come to an end,” she shrugs “I don’t take anything too seriously. If I took it so seriously, I’d be in a hospital somewhere not knowing how to deal with not being in a group anymore. But I still want to be able to work in the music industry, but with integrity. And I know that can exist.” Adding, “I just want to let people know that I’m out here doing my thing, in the way that I want to do it. I love to sing and I want people to know me for my music. But at the same time, you do have to get out there to build your profile. You know, if it’s not how I want to do it, I don’t do it. I think I’ve worked hard enough to say that.”
Michelle is also longing for a companion and wants to pop out some babies by age 32. She says,
“You travel a lot, you do so much and it’s like, ‘who do I have to share with?’” she asks. “I go home, I’m by myself. I think I can handle a relationship. I would like someone who does what they do, and when they come home, they’re themselves. I want to have children by the time I’m 32 so that when I’m 50 they’ll be 18, meaning they’ll be out the house. When I’m 50 I want the house to me and my husband, ok?”
