Solange Knowles Talks About Divorcing at 21

Posted Oct 2nd 2007 3:26PM by TMZ Staff

Beyonce's little sister, Solange Knowles, has already been married, had a child and divorced -- all before she was 21 years old! So that's what she was doing when Beyonce was on tour!

The baby B beauty tells Essence magazine, "I am no longer married ... but I think it's very important not to dish details ... we were basically high school sweethearts." Well, school's out -- forever!

Knowles married college football player, Daniel Smith, in Feburary 2004 and had son Daniel Julez the following October. Timing is everything!

Not taking a backseat to her famous sister, the singer is currently working on a new album -- because who wants to be labeled "Beyonce's younger, less hot sister" for the rest of their life?! Solange also talks about not wanting to be as mainstream as her sister, because she wouldn't be able to go to the mall anymore. She must love her "Hot Dog on a Stick," -- to pick shopping over stardom!

3. Sorry to hear that she is no longer married. But they have a child together so hopefully they will keep things civil for the childs sake and don't do what a lot of celebrity types do and put all there dirty laundry in the street. Life goes on!!

4. She will always be Ms B little sister. She can't make it. This is not a Janet and Micheal Jackson sister act. She better get in Destiny's child group cause doing it along is not going ot help her

8. Wow! An article gets done about Solange just because she's a relative? Now, that's a slow news day for TMZ and "Essence." While Beyonce has the, "career," Solange has the, "looks." She's very pretty.

10. Her and Ashley Simpson should team up and create a group called:

"My older sister sings and has talent: I on the other hand am a coat tail riding, talentless, less pretty version of her"

Is it a long name for a group? Yes, but it's accurate don't you think? LOL

13. I think Solange is a little bit prettier than B... B is pretty too but Solange has the looks. There is nothing wrong with having a sucessful, rich, and famous sister. She should ask for her sister's help, If someone sells multi platinum albums and just happens to be your big sis, why wouldn't you get that person to help you with your album? Duh! Use your resouces girl. Don't be stupid.

15. Wait, she got married at 17 just because she was too stupid to pop a pill or wrap up her boyfriend's log, and it DIDN't WORK OUT?????

Well there is just no hope left for any of us!
