Blue Ivy has always been an icon: Watch some of her top moments before 'Cowboy Carter'
Blue Ivy Carter has the Beyhive buzzing as she's taken on a lead role on her mom's "Cowboy Carter" tour. She's wowing some fans with her dance moves, but for those who have been watching closely, it's no surprise the 13-year-old has an iconic presence.
Beyoncé Knowles-Carter first launched her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour on April 28 at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Fans from all over the world traveled to witness Beyoncé's Los Angeles shows, which were filled with family, politics, soaring vocals, incredible fashion and masterful dancing.
Many fans watching online and in the stadium were left floored by Blue Ivy's performance throughout the night as she danced center stage. However, the Beyhive knows superstardom has been brewing in her bones. Here's a list of some iconic Blue Ivy moments over the years.
Blue Ivy did not come to play: Watch her top dance moments during Beyoncé's concert
Blue has been playfully deemed Beyoncé's "manager" by fans all over the internet due to her poised presence and sharp instincts. This was exemplified during the 2025 Grammys, where Beyoncé took home the award for best country album and album of the year, and Blue motioned to her mom to go onstage for her award.
And when it comes to manager Blue, she tends to make things happen. In Beyoncé's movie "Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé," Blue convinced the global superstar to keep the song "Diva" on the final set list, and the song made it into the "Cowboy Carter" tour, as well.
Blue Ivy has also been present in major cultural moments. During Jay-Z's acceptance speech at the 2024 Grammys, he took the stage with Blue as he called out the Recording Academy's snubs against his wife, Beyoncé.
She danced during alongside her mom and other dancers during Beyoncé's NFL halftime performance on Christmas Day 2024, during the Texans-Ravens game. According to Netflix, the show drew in nearly 27 million viewers.
Blue made her tour debut on the 2023 Renaissance World Tour in Paris at just 11 years old. She hit the stage, showing off her dance moves to 'My Power' and 'Black Parade."
At the age of 10, Blue Ivy performed at the Academy Awards amongst dancers during her mother's performance of 'Be Alive." She received a lot of praise for her moves.
Blue Ivy was featured on Beyoncé's song 'Brown Skin Girl' and in the accompanying music video. This feature earned young Blue a list of accolades, including becoming the second youngest person ever to win a Grammy, the youngest person to receive a BET Award and the youngest winner of an MTV Video Music Award.
Two days after she was born, Time magazine deemed Blue Ivy the 'most famous baby in the world."
Beyoncé first introduced Blue Ivy to the world onstage at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. Beyoncé performed her hit 'Love on Top' before rubbing her belly.
The nine-city "Cowboy Carter" tour will span the U.S. and Europe with the grand finale taking place in Las Vegas on July 26. Beyoncé is set to make history with her scheduled tour dates, including by playing the most dates at SoFi Stadium of any artist.

The global star has made her highly anticipated return to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in June to kick of six London shows in the North London stadium as part of her Cowboy Carter World Tour. Between June 5 and 16, over 62,000 fans will see the singer perform her country album for the first time ever in the UK. If you've already got your tickets secured and want to know how you can plan ahead, below we list all that there is to know about performance times, setlists, what to wear, leaving the stadium, who will be opening for Beyoncé and more... then keep reading below. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE Take a closer look at the full breakdown of the Cowboy Carter Tour setlist for the London dates below. Based on Bey's pervious performances, this list gives you a solid idea of what to expect, but keep in mind that every show has its own flair, so the lineup may shift slightly on the night. Given that the album country themed, western wear is the dress code for the Cowboy Carter tour. From double denim, to cowboy boots, hats, shorts and gold and silver jewellery, the options of what to wear are endless. Before you can sing your way through the stellar setlist, you'll need to plan how you're getting to the venue. Although Tottenham Hotspur stadium has advised visitors not to drive, there are plenty of other transport options to choose from. Heading to the stadium from central London? The nearest tube stations to the venue are Seven Sisters and Tottenham Hale, both about a 30-minute walk away. Conveniently, both are on the Victoria Line, so they are easily accessible from Oxford Circus, Kings Cross, and Euston stations. Several TFL bus services, including the W3, 149, 259, 279, and 349, stop at or near the venue. However, the stadium advises that on concert days, these routes may experience minor diversions due to road closures for the event. Need to reach the venue from East London? White Hart Lane on the Weaver Overground line is the nearest station to the Station, offering a direct connection from Liverpool Street. See more information from the Tottenham Hotspur stadium at the link here. The stadium doors open at 5 pm, with Beyoncé's anticipated to take the stage around 7.30 pm. However, based on her previous Cowboy Carter shows, she often begins her performance closer to 8.15 pm. Whilst nothing has yet been confirmed, given that Beyoncé hasn't had an opening act for her tour so far, there's no indication that this would change in London. However, rumour has it that Sir Paul McCartney may join Beyoncé on stage for her rendition of the Beatles song 'Blackbird', as well as support from her DJ. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has a restricted bag policy and requires all bags to be less than A4 in size (21cm long x 30cm high). Everyone knows that one of the best parts of going to a concert, is the pre-show itself. From getting ready with your friends, while blasting all of songs ahead of the gig, there's nothing quite like it. Whether you've already got a dedicated Cowboy Carter playlist or are still adding the finishing touches to your carefully curated playlist, Spotify are here to enhance that experience.
