You know someone’s a really big deal when fellow famous people can only talk about how incredibly overwhelming it is to be in their presence. Case in point: please see Beyoncé. There are few celebrities who manage to talk about her, let alone be around her without freaking out, being star struck or quite literally bowing down at her feet like Chrissy Tiegen did on a red carpet last month.
One person who that most definitely does not apply to, though, is her six-year-old daughter Blue Ivy. Nope, Blue Ivy is not here for Beyoncé’s nonsense and she will shush her if she has to.
At the 2018 Grammys, Blue Ivy reminded mom and dad, Jay Z and Bey, to keep their chill and refrain from clapping during Camilla Cabello’s speech. Blue Ivy hushed the king and queen of music for all the world to see. From that moment, we were given prime meme material and what we thought was a gif for all ages, but baby girl Blue might have just gone and topped it.
Blue Ivy attended the NBA All Star’s basketball game over the weekend, as one would expect of a descendent of superstar royalty. She sat between Beyoncé and her grandmother, Tina Lawson. They chilled, they watched the game, they took the cutest selfies of all mother-daughter selfies. But, if a video of Blue dramatically wagging her finger at Beyoncé is anything to go by, she also had reason to keep her mum in check.
Sat court side with her shades still on, you can see Blue Ivy giving Beyoncé and none other than P Diddy some serious sass. ‘Blue Ivy has me screaming on this dull day’, said one twitter user who shared this precious moment with the world.
Whatever could cause Blue Ivy to respond in such a way, you ask? Well, the Beyoncé Legion twitter account captured the moments preceding Blue’s showcase of attitude and it makes the whole thing even better than it already is.
You see Blue Ivy playing and being carried around by some of the NBA mascots. She's laughing, she's smiling, she seems to be having a good time (with her sunglasses still on, of course). But then P Diddy, who is obviously sat just a few seats over and appears to have taken a picture of this precious moment in Blue Ivy's childhood, perhaps to send to Jay Z who is notably missing from the occasion, approaches Blue and her mum to show them the snap. Blue Ivy is not into it...
Perhaps she's not a fan of the filter Diddy used. Or maybe he suggested that Bey post it to her well curated Instagram account only to be shot down by the real mastermind behind the Carter-Knowles empire. Or maybe, Blue Ivy has a real issue with unsolicited pictures of her chilling with giant jersey-wearing mouse mascots and was pissed at her mum for not having her wits about her. Any of the above would do.
For us, the name Beyoncé may be synonymous with Queen, but for Blue Ivy Bey is just another grown up who’s there to provide juice boxes and cramp her ever-evolving style. Blue, you win girl. Long may Princess Carter reign.

The Debrief - Destiny's Child Outfits
1 of 21The Bandeau Crop Scenario
Because it was compulsory for each band member to wear a little bit of the same material on different areas of their body. See Kelly's cardi and everyone else's harem pants.
2 of 21Potent And Pink
Throwback to the era of the statement chunky belt. Hold tight Kelly for taking one for the team and donning the statement trousers too.
3 of 21One Fabric, All The Dresses
This gem was taken at the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) Awards back in 2000 and is one of the early examples of Tina Knowles' apparent love of an asymmetric hemline .
4 of 21Ladies In Leather
The VMA's afterparty called for a group ensemble too, you know. Is it a coincidence that* The Matrix* was released within a year or so of this outfit's creation? I think not.
5 of 21Power Pattern
Not quite Zebra print, not quite leopard print but hey, here's some more of that asymmetric hem action we were talking about earlier.
6 of 21Cut Out Queens
For a lesson in how to rock a mid-drift baring cut-out dress, please refer to these impeccably impractical examples.
7 of 21Committed To The Print
This look was carried right from Michelle's bra down to Beyonce's pointed toes. Dedication, or what?
8 of 21Deeper Shade Of Blue
No words. Just tassels and cowboy hats.
9 of 21Earn Your Badge
At the Nickelodeon Kid's Choice awards demonstrating how to encourage more young women to join the Girl Scouts of America. No, those outfits might not be regulation but look how many badges they have!
10 of 21Frill Me
Probably the leas matchy, matchy of the lot but we appreciate the shoe to dress coordination.
11 of 21Kira Kira Gold
Golden Greek Goddess vibes with this shiny look. Definite inspiration for the Kira Kira app of today.
12 of 21Sheer Here And There
Because was a dress worthy of a 2001 red carpet if it wasn't a little see through?
13 of 21Lemon Denim Blend
Once again Kelly's out here taking one for the team and wearing a token bit of jean across her body to continue the elaborate lemon on denim tend.
14 of 21Orange You Happy To See Me?
The orange, the blue, the tassles, the kind of leather boots? Name a bigger collaborative sartorial statement. I'll wait.
15 of 21Off White, And What?
Lets play a game of spot how many patterns and items of embellishment. These girls wear 'extra' so well and we're jealous.
16 of 21We're Still Fun But Also Mature
Here's where the trio really tried to demonstrate their individual personalities while also pretty much wearing the same thing. Never not here for Kelly's peek-a-boo mid-drift.
17 of 21All For One
And again.
18 of 21Plenty Of Purple
I know, bit of a shock to the system seeing them looking like they shopped from different racks at the same store. But if you were to lose one of them at a party they'd still be easily identifiable.
19 of 21Spot The Sequins
A little upper body glitter action to connect three actually quite different outfits? We se what you did there guys.
20 of 21WE ARE ONE
This was the school talent show dream. The reality was you all wearing dramatically different spangly tops and dresses as stolen from your mums' wardrobes and getting in trouble for trying.
21 of 21You Do You And I'll Do Me
Some JLS-style colour block assignment here, as seen on the Destiny Fulfilled And Lovin' It tour.
