Watch Blue Ivy’s Viral Recovery From an Onstage Mishap on Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour
Blue Ivy Carter has learned a lot from her mother, Beyoncé, including how to handle a mishap onstage so gracefully. During Beyoncé’s May 15 Cowboy Carter Tour show in Chicago, Blue was with her mother and little sister Rumi, performing “Protector.” As the 13-year-old leaned down to embrace her mother as part of the choreography, her earring got caught in Beyoncé’s hair. Blue tactfully untangled it without missing a beat. Footage of the moment racked up millions of views on social media:
Blue made a similar skillful recovery when she dropped her bandana onstage last week and picked it back up without breaking choreography:
Both Blue and Rumi have impressed fans with their stage presence during each stop of their mother’s tour.
Blue first appeared as a dancer on Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour in 2023. This spring, the teen has shown her growth as a performer, nailing the routine each night. She even made headlines when she had a little fun engaging with a fan who called her Beyoncé’s unofficial manager.
Seven-year-old Rumi is “taking notes” from Blue, the girls’ grandmother Tina Knowles recently wrote on Instagram. “It’s giving big sis energy in training. 🥹,” Tina captioned of footage of Rumi strutting onstage earlier this month. “The way she watches Blue and mirrors her every move….You can tell she’s taking notes. She doesn’t just want to join the legacy…she wants to SLAY it too! Rumi said on last tour that she was ready to hit the stage. She learned choreography and was ready. I’m so happy to see her on stage with her mommy and her sister.”
In September, Beyoncé praised Blue, telling GQ, “Blue is an artist. She has great taste in music and fashion. She is a fantastic editor, painter, and actress. She has been creating characters since she was three. She’s a natural, but I did not want Blue onstage. Blue wanted it for herself. She took it seriously and she earned it. And most importantly, she had fun! We all watched her grow more and more every night before our eyes.”
