"Michelle Williams has parted ways with management company Mathew Knowles and Music World Entertainment. The former Destiny&amp;#039;s Child star, who recently starred in Chicago in London&amp;#039;s West End, issued a statement confirming her departure from the team. &amp;quot;After much prayer and consideration I have decided to part ways from my management team, Mathew Knowles and Music World Entertainment,&amp;quot; Williams said. &amp;quot;From my time in Destiny&amp;#039;s Child to my solo career, I am grateful for everything Mathew and his team has done for me. We&amp;#039;ve shared great success together. However, as I move in a new direction in my career, I felt it was time.  &amp;quot;I wish Mathew Knowles and the Music World Entertainment family all the best.&amp;quot; The 29-year-old has been managed by Knowles, who is former bandmate Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9&amp;#039;s father, since she joined Destiny&amp;#039;s Child in 2000. The star has released three solo LPs and previously confirmed to DS that she has completed a remix album. Williams returns to Broadway as Roxie Hart in Chicago for a seven-week stint from February 8.
