Blue Ivy Carter astonished audiences during Beyoncé’s Christmas Day NFL halftime show, where she performed alongside her renowned mother.
However, the 12-year-old received varied comments online, with some admiring her talent and others voicing worries about her quick maturation.
Blue Ivy Carter, Beyoncé’s eldest daughter, made waves during the singer’s Christmas Day NFL halftime show at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.
The 12-year-old, already taller than her renowned mother’s 5 ft. 6 in. frame, joined her mom on the field in an impressive display of confidence and grace.
Beyoncé, 43, looked stunning in an all-white western-themed costume for the 15-minute, eight-song medley. Blue, dressed in all white to match her mother’s motif, served as a backup dancer for the last routine, “Texas Hold ‘Em.”
At the age of 12, the young genius already holds two Guinness World Records and has an incredible list of accomplishments.
Her successes go beyond music; she also voiced Kiara in “Mufasa: The Lion King,” which her mother celebrated with a heartfelt Instagram.

However, Blue’s arrival provoked much discussion. Social media networks were flooded with reactions to her towering height and talent.
However, critics chimed in, questioning whether Blue was having a normal childhood.”I hope one day I could see Blue Ivy smile. Smile smile [sic] with teeth showing. Most of the time, she doesn’t look happy. It breaks my heart as she was a child,” one person commented.
A fan added, “Does that child goes [sic] to school?” and a fourth remarked,”To grown to soon…be a child first [sic]!!!!”
Another person commented, “Let her be the child she still is.” Others commented on Blue’s appearance, questioning her age. “Is that a 12 [sic]. She looks 30,” one person shared.
Despite the diverse comments from social media users, Beyoncé and her family saw Blue Ivy Carter’s performance as another legendary event in their shared journey in the entertainment industry.
As Blue approaches her adolescence on January 7, her burgeoning star power foreshadows a legacy in the making—one that will unfold in front of millions of eyes.
