Kelly Rowland breaks down while singing about Beyonce rivalry

Los Angeles: Singer Kelly Rowland broke down in tears during a concert as she performed a song about a past abusive relationship with friend Beyonce.

The former Destiny`s Child star was belting out her controversial new track `Dirty Laundry`, which chronicles the singer`s feelings of jealousy towards Beyonce as her solo career took off while she was battling personal problems at home, reported Us magazine. About starting the song, the 32-year-old singer gets choked up just as she sings the line "Turnin` me against my sister," in reference to Beyonce. The powerful ballad, which Rowland released earlier this month, addresses her past relationships with abusive boyfriends, as well as her jealousy from Beyonce`s success. "It took me days to record. I had to get past being so upset and actually sing the song, not sob through it," she had said. PTI
