Blue Ivy Carter showed she’s a pro during her recent on-stage appearance with mom Beyoncé in Chicago. The 13-year-old came in quickly to head off a possible stage catastrophe during the Cowboy Carter tour show at Soldier Field, garnering admiration on social media from fans for her composure and fast actions.
As part of the choreography, Beyoncé bent over to cradle Blue Ivy during their performance. At that point, Beyoncé’s hair became caught up in her daughter’s earring. Panicked doesn’t seem to be an emotion she’d ever experience, so Blue Ivy swiftly attempted to free the hair with her hands. When that failed, she just removed the earring to allow the show to go on without a hitch. Meanwhile, Beyoncé’s other younger daughter, Rumi Carter, oblivious to what was happening, smiled and hugged her mom contentedly.
Take a look at the viral incident:

A clip of the incident went viral on X (formerly Twitter), as social media users praised Blue Ivy for being mature and poised.
One fan wrote, “I’ve never seen it this clear before now, but Blue is literally a copy and paste of Beyoncé… like just gorgeous and smart ????.” Another said, “Nah for real. She didn’t panic. She found a solution and moved on. At her age on this type of stage? This is honestly commendable.”
Others expressed the same sentiments, one commenting, “This is peak oldest child energy struggling to maintain composure while youngest lives best life.” Another commented, “I didn’t think I would have remained that composed in such circumstance at all, I appreciate her composure fr.” A fan captured it aptly: “The manner in which Blue maintained it like an experienced performer… she’s got Beyoncé in her blood.”
The performance, which was the premiere of Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour, had been temporarily halted due to weather conditions. Nonetheless, after conditions cleared up, Beyoncé proceeded to perform, presenting a high-energy performance — ably backed up by her composed daughter.
