This could be the news fans have been praying for ever since Destiny's Child broke up so that the girls could each pursue a solo career. In a new interview, their manager Matthew Knowles says a reunion is very likely.

While one has been the subject of speculation for years now, Mr. Knowles is actually pretty confident that it might happen, sometime in the next 5 years.

“In November we’re putting out two Destiny’s Child catalog records with new material. So we’re going to start doing strategic things like that,” he says in an interview with The Huffington Post.

The “new material” will actually be previously unreleased songs, so don't go thinking the girls will be back in the recording studio together again.

However, it's still a possibility – they might tour to support the two albums.

“Not on the first release. It takes a year of planning to do these tours, but first it starts with the artist wanting to do it. And I think the ladies are still working happily in their solo careers. And I hope in the next five years that there is a reunion tour,” Knowles says.

“I think it would be incredible. The hardest thing would be choosing which songs they’re going to do, because we would want to mix it up with solo hits and Destiny’s Child hits. We would have to throw away some number ones from off the set list,” he adds.
