From the moment Beyoncé debuted her baby bump after her performance of “Love on Top” at the 2011 VMAs, the world has considered Blue Ivy Carter one of their own. We’ve watched her grow and mature right before our eyes – even taking the stage and dancing with her mom during her record-breaking Renaissance World Tour.
Although her famous parents do their best to keep their oldest daughter out of the spotlight, when Blue does pop out, fans are right there to get a closer look.
This weekend, the 12-year-old made an appearance at the Los Angeles premiere of the film version of “Wicked.” Blue channeled her inner Glinda, wearing a beautiful pink strapless corset maxi dress from London womenswear designer House of CB along with a pair of gold strappy sandals. And as you can probably guess, the internet went crazy with comments.
All of the proud aunties and uncles who claim Blue as their internet niece couldn’t believe how fast their little girl has grown before their very eyes.
“Hold on, how is she so big? Like it feels like it was yesterday when Beyoncé announced she was pregnant,” wrote someone on X.
Other nostalgic fans couldn’t resist an opportunity to compare the tween to the sassy little girl who gave plenty of face and a hand on her hip in Beyoncé’s “Formation” video in 2016.
The comments were loaded with mentions of how the beautiful Blue is looking more like the spitting image of her mama, Beyoncé, as she grows up.
“The Beyoncé genes working overtime,” wrote one X user.
While the internet wouldn’t be the internet without a few haters, most people were here for Blue’s premiere look and can’t wait to see her star continue to shine.
“Blue Ivy shining at the ‘Wicked’ premiere in LA! The next generation of talent in full swing,” wrote one commenter on X.
