Destiny Bitting shares at least two things with Beyoncé.
They have the same birthday — Sept. 4 — though the singer is a few years older than the Coupeville High School senior. And also, both are larger-than-life showmen.
Or, more appropriately, show-women.
Destiny has channeled her entertainment energy into the world of cheer-leading and it has paid off nicely.
A Wolf captain this year, she’ll be easy to spot, as she’s usually out front through football and basketball seasons.
Loud ‘n proud, Bitting is a vital part of Wolf Nation, one who has learned to deal with a serious heart condition without letting it slow her down.
She may not get the huge headlines and 24/7 media coverage that her birthday mate does, but Destiny makes an impact on her town every day, through her actions, her words and her sublime grace.
Happy birthday, Miss Bitting.
The rest of the world may spend the day ranting and raving about Beyoncé, but you’re the real superstar here.
