Beyoncé has celebrated her longtime friend Kelly Rowland over her new movie, highlighting their enduring three-decade bond.
On Friday (February 16), Bey took to Instagram where she praised her former Destiny’s Child groupmate on her latest venture: a steamy, Tyler Perry-led thriller called Mea Culpa.

“That’s my best friend! That’s my best friend!!!!! So proud of you Kelly [praying hands emoji],” she captioned a carousel of photos showcasing Kelly, JAY-Z, and her mother Tina Knowles at the movie screening.
The film, featuring Trevante Rhodes, Sean Sagar, Nick Sagar and RonReaco Lee, revolves around a criminal defense attorney (played by Kelly Rowland) entangled in the case of a seductive artist accused of murder.

As passion ignites, the story spirals into a dangerous game of desire and deceit, reminiscent of classic thrillers like The Talented Mr. Ripley and American Psycho.
“This idea came to me because I love all of those older thrillers from the ’80s and ’90s,” Perry told Tudum. “It was fun to explore the best and worst of humanity through the genre of an exotic thriller.”

Beyoncé’s unwavering support for Kelly Rowland is unsurprising. Despite their hectic schedules, the best friends always unite when it matters most.
Last summer, the duo joined forces to pay it forward to their hometown by aiding in combating Houston’s housing crisis.
Harris County officials announced that the former girl group members would be leading the charge with the creation of 31 permanent housing units in Houston’s Midtown area.
The Knowles-Rowland housing development received nearly $7,000,000 in funding from the American Rescue Plan.

“Harris County and the city of Houston, jointly with the coalition for the homeless, have reduced homelessness in the middle of the pandemic by 20 percent, and we’ve been able to hold that reduction,” Judge Lina Hidalgo said at a press conference.
She continued: “It’s initiatives like this one I certainly will be supportive of no matter who’s behind it, but it’s especially interesting, I think, because there are these names of Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland, who, of course, have been supportive of the community for a very long time.”
