– Well you only turn 21 one time and that’s a very special year. And it’s a 80s skating party. – I am here at Cascade Skating Rink which is in Atlanta, where I’m from, but here to celebrate Beyonce’s birthday party. – Yeah, she having her birthday party in my city, so I had to come out here and see what’s going on.
You know, so check it out make sure it’s going down right. It ain’t right if I aint here. – We’ve had an opportunity to actually be friends with Destiny’s Child. And Beyonce is kinda sorta that humble girl that no matter how many records she sells,
She’s still the kinda person you can call up and say, you know, what’s up, what you doing today, let’s go to McDonald’s. – I got to know her because, like I said, I lived in Houston, I’m from Houston, I knew them when they were kids growing up.
So I’m just glad to see young people that had a work ethic, the desire to make a thing happen and go around the world and share it. – She’s a beautiful, beautiful person to be around with, you know what I mean. Any time she around, I feel good.
– I’m just very happy that I have another year and I have a lot of people that love me and that I love. So I’m happy to be able to celebrate. – I’m here to celebrate my sister’s birthday and she’s 21 and we just gonna go in here and have a ball.
– I’m so excited for her, she came here with so much energy and I know she can’t wait to get her butt on the dance floor. That’s all she been talking about, all night. – Oh, I’m just really happy her. I’m so happy that all the people here, look at the parking lot,
Have showed up wearing their white and gold, the 80s flavor. I’m so happy for her she really deserves it. – [Beyonce] You gotta look at the skates. These were custom-made, they have the 21 on there. – Virgo. – The gold on this, the Virgo, the B.
And my mom and Ty did ’em, so that’s my favorite of the day. – I know a lot of people have been saying, like, they’ve never been to a skate party before. And Beyonce just had enough courage to throw a skate party, ’cause I know some people are a little scared to skate
But that ain’t nothing to be afraid of. It’s a party, so just sit back, cut loose and get wild and crazy. – I’mma come out here and rock, bounce, skate and roll like a, no, I can’t curse on here, but I’mma roll my butt of in here.
– [Interviewer] So you gon’ do a little skating yourself? – No, I will not be skating. There is no need for me to pretend. I can’t skate, swim, anything with an S, I don’t do, except sing (chuckles). – Don’t wanna be too nervous, don’t wanna bust my,
On them things, so I’ll probably just be walking tonight. – I’m okay, I’m not a great skater but I just love skating and I wanted to do something fun. I didn’t wanna have a traditional, regular party at a, you know, club or wherever else. I wanted to have a fun party. – We’re gonna go out there and skate.
– [Interviewer] You’re gonna go for it? – I can’t skate, but I’m gonna try. – Want some? – No, it’s okay. – [Woman] You can gimme some. – I need a cup. – I’m celebrating. – Happy birthday girl, Happy 21st birthday from your younger sister Solange, I love you. – Man, happy birthday, happy 21st birthday baby.
