  • Own a Piece of Destiny’s Child History! Farrah Franklin Loses Memorabilia To Auction… [PHOTOS]

    Aug, 15 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Poor Farrah Franklin. After her arrest for disorderly conduct earlier this year, it seems it’s been all downhill for the former Destiny’s Child member.

    Franklin was a part of the world’s most successful girl group for only about 10 minutes, but you’d think she should have been able to turn Beyonce’s Midas touch to a successful career.

    Didn’t happen.

    Franklin surely could have turned her 10 minutes into a pocket full of cash had she sold her Destiny’s Child memorabilia, right?

    Didn’t happen.

    In fact, the storage unit where Franklin stored all those valuable items, was auctioned off to the highest bidder after she apparently neglected to pay her storage bill…

    And you’ll never believe where all that valuable Destiny’s Child memorabilia ended up…

    Straight to on eBay! Now you too can own a piece of Destiny’s Child history… and for only $50,0000 (or your best offer).

    The storage unit contained personal photographs of Franklin along with her DC bandmates Beyonce Knowles, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams as they were touring back in 2000.

    There’s also various contracts containing all of the ladies’ signatures and personal items like birthday cards and concert mementos…

    A birthday card to Farrah signed by Michelle…

    Franklin’s unit was apparently purchased by one of those “storage wars” type dudes, who notes “on 6/28/2011 Farrah Franklin’s Storage Unit Went Up For Auction. I purchased the storage unit”.

    In addition to the tons of personal photographs Farrah had of she and the girls when she was with Destiny’s Child (for 5-6 months), there were various photos of other stars she came in contact with, including Jay-z, Brittany Spears, Diana Ross, Shaq, Tyrese, Xibit and more.

    The most interesting thing I noticed on the list, besides the copy of an original signed contract by all members was the original letter sent from Mathew Knowles terminating Farrah from Destiny’s Child.


    I’m extremely shocked that Farrah didn’t sell this stuff earlier… especially if she couldn’t afford to store it.

    Franklin coulda made a killing from some Beyonce stan or DC collector. Oh well… her loss is some random dude’s $50,000 gain! *sigh*

    Is there anyone you can think of who would gladly buy up all this Destiny’s Child memorabilia?

      Why in the world would she put such valuable things in storage? Haven’t she heard, "it’s one thing to be a young fool, it’s another thing to be a old fool".. That was just foolish..

      I’m not surprised. Heck, Bobby Brown said that he once purchased a new car, failed to have it shipped to where he was going and later forgot about it. I’m not surprised by anything. Who in the hell forgets that they purchased a new car??

      She didnt sell it because it would have made her look BROKE & DESPERATE….and from what I see she was definitely trying to keep up appearances. WTF@Millionaire Matchmaker? Man I admit to being a Reality TV Show Junkie, so I’m surprised to be just now hearing about this show. WOW. So she was on this show as the "millionaire" looking for love? Man even before this news dropped I still would have thought "She is well off but not a millionaire tho". Gawd after hearing this, I truly am shocked by this, and dont much move me *lol* It’s just because I recall her history. Soon as I read about this, here and on another website, my mind started racing and remembering all the sh!t she claimed she had even before destiny’s child. She said in many of interviews (about being kicked out the group) how she even more than the DC members had, how she lived in a $600k house and had luxury cars, all because she was a model and her man worked in the music industry. “I mean our cars where better than theirs. We had more than them at the time”. Then the lil interviews she would give when reporters would catch her on the red carpet of some local events. She’d talk about her how great her career was post-destiny’s child. Speaking on a production company she started for making movies etc…. Yo, she even owned lil spider monkey *lol* those are expensive to buy & even more expensive to maintain, trust me. Lawdy, all the videos this chick would post showing her living the posh life…Man I guess all that sh*t was fake huh? Either that or she just ended up losing all of that, like the sh*t in her storage unit. I also recalled her situation with this singing group she started & deisbanded before they could even get it poppin. All cuz her & her business associates found out one of the girls was a PORN STAR *lmao*. Real Name: Bethany Grant. Soon as I saw the pic of Farrah’s new group I knew exactly who porn chick was, not cuz I am an avid watcher of porn or anything *lol* but because of my time on the internet. It’s like how could you not have run across this chick face. I didn’t know her stage name but I knew that face. She was in some comedy porn called “Hood Hunters” and “Pimp my Black Teen” . So that new group was a flop & she wasted money & time putting that sh*t together. Then she was arrested, but that was nothing major. Disturbing the peace is not a major crime (arrested, court, pay a fine or get off with a warning, DONE)….So here we are….She had some valuable sh*t in storage & couldn’t pay the $10-$70 fee for the storage unit and ended up losing it all….DAMN…Seriously, I’m still shocked. First of all………….I’m wondering why she even needed a storage unit. What is her living situation? What happen to her $600k house? Did she break up with that same boyfriend & he kicked her out? Also, folks with $$$$$ would only put stuff in storage for a temporary period of time, example: living in a condo while you find a house. Second of all, storage units don’t cost much, the sh*t is so low that you can pay up to 6 months, most places require at least 3 months rent when you first sign up. So how is it she couldn’t pay? These places also don’t just sell peoples stuff like 1 day after their rent is late. They try to contact the renter numerous times & there is even a few months (up to a year) post delinquency before they can auction folks property. The “abandoned property” law is different in each state. When Farrah finally responds to this she prolly gonna try & save face by saying “I had the that stuff in storage because I was moving & traveling a lot and I’ve been so busy that I forgot about that storage unit. I also changed my numbers since then.” , like the frontin ass b*tch she is *lol* Third of all, WHY IN THE F*CK would she have such valuable “stuff” in a storage unit?! This make me further wonder what her living situation is like or if she even has a car. Cuz from what I see, the stuff for sale are documents & pictures. The heffa could have just kept this stuff in her car, it’s not the safest place to keep valuables but at east she would have had it. I do believe this child dun went FLAT BROKE. Oh well, I aint poking fun at her misfortune but this is really f*cked up for her.

      Guys, she toured with Destiny’s child and tour money = big money which is why Matthew fired the other two. Sick or not he was trying to get that loot. She could have easily became a millionaire on tour with DC……also, people with money DO forget things that they have in storage……she may have put that stuff in storage when she was done with DC and never looked back…….obviously it wasn’t that valuable to her. It doesn’t mean that she is broke…in fact, if I am not mistaken there was a settlement reached between Matty Knowles and the former members of DC anyway…and they cannot talk about it because of the confidentiality agreement he slapped on em. Broke folks and their speculations.

      I don’t know how in the world anyone could fuck up an opportunity like being in Destiny’s Child. Granted, Letoya and Latavia were done wrong in that group and I am sure Farrah had her problems, but Farrah should have definitely sucked it up. If I was Farrah I would have rode that wave for as long as possible, got as much fame and attention a I could, then when the group gets ready to split, forge my solo career. Instead she complained and dipped after like only 5 months. Who does that?! Ha ha, silly rabbit.
