    Lover Of Tim Tams And "A Smack Back": Michelle Williams Is Owning Her Legacy As The 'Forgotten' Destiny's Child

    They could never make me forget you, Michelle.

    Michelle Williams is many things. She's a Grammy Award winning singer, mental health advocate and chewy caramel Tim Tam lover. But it seems that one of the biggest parts of her legacy is also the one that's most forgotten — being one third of iconic '90s girl group, Destiny's Child.

    Now, she can add comedic queen to her list of accolades, as the multi-talented Williams has teamed up with Uber One to poke fun herself for being Destiny's Child most unrecognisable member.

    "I was in the most iconic girl groups and no one recognises me," Williams says in the ad. 

    "Everybody and their mama literally had something to say during my time in Destiny's Child," Williams told BuzzFeed Australia. In fact, it's one of the reasons she teamed up with Uber One — she wants people to know she's in on the joke.

    "It's kind of like almost a smack back," Williams explained, adding that it's "not a smack back ... to be aggressive or mean because I'm mad or bitter."

    "But it's like, 'Guys, I'm laughing with you, I promise!'" she said. "They can't say nothing new."
