Beyonce is proud of my "Dirty Laundry" song - Kelly Rowland

Kelly Rowland has revealed that her new hit "Dirty Laundry", in which she confesses her struggle with jealousy over Beyonce's success, has got a warm welcome from her Destiny Child band mate.

In a recent interview with Washington radio station 93.9 WKYS, the 32-year-old singer said that both Beyonce and Michelle Williams listened to her emotional tune before she released it.

She said that that both their reactions were positive. [Beyonce] was just like, "I never left," Rowland said of Bey's response to her candid lyrics. "Which was so sweet. It was endearing. She heard how real I was and she was just like "I'm so proud of you" she added.

The powerful ballad also talks about Rowland's past relationships with abusive boyfriends.
