Say My Name: Farah Franklin, Former Destiny's Child Member, Gets Arrested

A former member of Destiny's Child got arrested again for disorderly conduct. Farah Franklin, who was with the band for five months, was said to have been detained in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

The 33-year-old was booked at 4:55 in the morning but was released on Sunday. She had to pay a US$280 bill in order to get out of the Horry County Detention center.

Sources say alcohol may have been a factor in Franklin's arrest. She had earlier posted a photo on Instagram showing her on the beach looking wild and carefree.

She is originally from Sherman Oaks, California and might have been on vacation in S.C.

Franklin has been arrested several times since she left the band. In 2011, she was similarly slapped with alcohol-related charges while in Las Vegas.

Earlier this week, a video of Beyoncé and Franklin went viral which might have had a hand in Franklin's removal from the girl group. In an interview, Franklin was saying that when push came to shove, she was able to sing and dance.

This was viewed as a possible insult to Queen Bey, who gave Franklin a look which would forever scar anyone, and may have been one reason for Franklin's short stay with the group.

It stirred comments amongst fans and haters saying that Beyonce was just really selfish and wants all the attention to herself. Well, this is pretty obvious since the band's lead was really Beyonce which makes it natural for her to hog the spotlight.

Eventually, Franklin got removed from the group because she missed promotional appearances and shows. This was in contrast to her reason for leaving: negative vibes and lack of input on decisions.

Everyone is just hoping that this former star would stop getting in trouble and quit getting arrested.
