Hello, and welcome to the all-new DC3 Forever! We began four years ago in July 2005, when the site’s founder, Antony, created DC3 Forever as a temporary haven for DC-Connection.net posters during downtime. After DC-Connection permanently closed in 2006, we became the new home for thousands of Destiny’s Child fans and the #1 source for all things Beyoncé, Kelly, and Michelle.
I’m Vinny. I have been the co-owner, administrator and webmaster of DC3 Forever since the very beginning when Antony asked me to join him four years ago. A new addition to the DC3 Forever family is Kennard, owner and webmaster of Destiny Vault, with whom we have joined forces with to create this all-new site for you. Get to know us!
Over the past four years, DC3 Forever has consistently gained popularity and with this all-new blog and fan community, we hope to open doors to more possibilities and bring fans together. The site has already been visited by Destiny’s Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, and we hope similar opportunities occur.
In March 2008, I was granted an exclusive interview with Kelly over the phone, in which I asked questions that only true fans could come up with, providing for an insightful and personable interview. During that interview, I gave Kelly a tour of the site, and listened as she browsed and read what her fans on our board had to say about her new song, “Love Again.” It was an amazing experience. In addition, Kelly recorded a special video dedicated to DC3 Forever after receiving our fanbook from Ant. You can watch it here: Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3
Coincidently, that same month I also received a voicemail from Michelle in which she asked me to pass along a special thank you message to the fans from DC3 Forever for the birthday book we had sent her, and she informed me that she would be visiting the site. That’s two out of the three - so now we have to work on Beyoncé!
This will probably be the only time I will ever say this but, enough about Destiny’s Child. This blog is centered around them, yes, but it is so much more. This is a blog about their influences, their peers, and those they’ve inspired. That means legends like Michael Jackson, divas like Mariah Carey, hit-makers like Ne-Yo, “hip-hop stars“ (husbands) like Jay-Z, fresh talent like Chrisette Michele, and even up-and-coming underground artists, like Avon Semaj. Yep! All that, and so much more…
So, in the simple yet timeless words of Beyoncé… “you ready?“
