Is Farrah Franklin throwing shade at Matthew, Tina, Beyonce, Solange, Kelly and more at the same time!? BALLS!!!!! Ms. Franklin recently sat down with VIBE to give tips on how to operate and stay relevant in a girl group.

STAY ANTI-PREGGERS
“Be wary of boyfriends and the whole pregnant thing, because a lot of times when you get in a group, if someone has a boyfriend, they’ll kind of dictate what’s going on with that group member. So you want to be very wary of relationships. One of the things with the first group I was in, we had a rule that no one could get pregnant for the first two years. That was pretty much the main one… all of them have kids now. The thing is, if we’re in a group and Julia goes and marries little Barack Obama Jr. we can’t make any money because Julia’s our main singer and we can’t do the Destiny’s Child thing. You gotta make stuff work [because] people want to see you perform.”
DON’T PULL A KNOWLES
“Naturally, you’re going to look out for your family. There’s a lot of things I didn’t understand at 18 and there’s a lot of things I knew, that [the girls] didn’t understand. [Hiring family] gives a little favoritism. [In Destiny's Child] I felt like I was put aside… Matthew [Knowles] was our manager, then Tina [Knowles] did hair and styling, then our road manager was Beyonce’s cousin, then our assistant road manager was Beyonce’s other cousin, then we had an attorney that was Beyonce’s other cousin, and Solange that was traveling with us. Her whole family was on tour with them… If there was someone else I could’ve spoken to outside of the family, I think it would’ve been a lot better.”
