They say “a picture is worth a thousand words,” and Blue Ivy’s expression when her mother, Beyoncé, won the ‘Album of the Year’ award at the Grammys last night said it all.
Beyoncé, who topped our best-dressed list in a stunning custom gold Schiaparelli gown, was thrilled and overjoyed to receive the prestigious award. She also made history as the first black woman to win the “Best Country Album” award for Cowboy Carter.
Blue Ivy, who looks just like a blend of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, wore a royal purple Naeem Khan gown that made her look like a princess on this historic night. She accessorized with a diamond necklace, a decorated bracelet, and silver rings. Her goddess braids were highlighted with blonde, and her makeup featured metallic eye shadow and a brown ombre lip.
The 13-year-old was overjoyed for her mom, tightly hugging Beyoncé as she accepted the ‘Album of the Year’ award. Blue Ivy has grown up watching Beyoncé work tirelessly to perfect her craft and achieve greatness. She shared the stage with her mother this past year, so she knows how important this moment was for Beyoncé.
Beyoncé had never won ‘Album of the Year’ despite having the most Grammy awards in history, so the announcement brought a special twinkle to her eye. Last year, during Jay-Z’s acceptance speech for the Dr. Dre Global Impact award, he pointed out how Beyoncé had more Grammys than anyone but had never won this particular award. Now, a year later, Beyoncé has broken that barrier.
Beyoncé continues to wow us not only as an artist but as a cultural icon who has significantly influenced music, fashion, and activism. She excels as a performer and a mother, making it all seem effortless. She is a pillar of black culture and constantly demonstrates that there are no limits with her chart-topping hits and groundbreaking achievements. Her ability to master all genres of music makes her a dominant force in the industry.
It was wonderful to see Blue Ivy at the Grammys, cheering for her mother and looking glamorous. Blue is growing up and evolving right before our eyes, displaying youthful confidence. With a mother as fierce and extraordinary as Beyoncé, it’s exciting to think about the influence Blue Ivy will have in the future.
A huge congratulations to Beyoncé!
