Renowned USA rapper Beyoncé Giselle Knowles, professionally known as Beyoncé, has sparked controversy online after her 13-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, wore a cleavage-revealing dress to the 67th Grammy Awards.
The event took place on Sunday, January 26, 2025, at the (link unavailable) Arena in Los Angeles, USA. Beyoncé made history by becoming the first black woman to win the Grammy for Album of the Year in 26 years. She won the award for her album “Cowboy Carter,” which also earned her the Best Country Album award.
Beyoncé holds the record as the most nominated and awarded artist in Grammys history, with 99 nominations and 35 wins. Prior to 2025, she was the most nominated female artist without an Album of the Year win, a streak she finally ended with “Cowboy Carter.”
However, Beyoncé faced criticism for allowing her 13-year-old daughter to wear a revealing outfit to the Grammys. Some accused her of “selling out” her daughter, while others defended her decision. The controversy sparked a heated debate on social media, with many sharing their opinions on the matter.
See some reactions below:
@ToluDaniel10: Blue IVY grew up so fast 🫢.
@leilanijay3_jay: Is there something wrong with this dress?.
@Riberrydiamond2: Unreal criticism, if they get the chance to be Beyoncé. They will do worst.
@SumolaIdowu: Now, this is the real grooming. Mom has been grooming her since kindergarten to position her just at the right time to take up her spot when she leaves the scene. An irresponsible behavior if you would dress her up as an adult while still a child.
@Ini_Fome: Criticize by who, hope it’s not the same woke community that says kids are allowed to make sexual and gender choices?😂 Oh, they can’t pick their wardrobes now?
