“Congratulations my Blue Blue! I marvel at your talent, your beauty, your intelligence, but I am most proud of your kindness and down-to-earth attitude,” Tina wrote alongside a stunning shot of Blue. “Never attention-seeking, just cool and chill as a cucumber all the time.” Tina went on to highlight Blue Ivy’s many accomplishments, from self-taught piano skills to performing like a pro in front of 80,000 people during Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour. The proud grandmother also noted Blue’s roles in narrating “Hair Love,” voicing a character in the upcoming “Lion King” prequel “Mufasa,” and being a young Grammy winner, all before her teenage years.

“Yesterday you played the piano for just me like someone who has been taking lessons for years. But you are self taught,” she continued. “One day I hope you will let me post it and brag like other grandmas get to do. But for now you made me swear to not share.”

The proud grandma continued by pointing out some of Blue”s many accomplishments, including voicing narrating the children”s book Hair Love, voicing a character in the upcoming Lion King prequel Mufasa and being a young GRAMMY winner — all before her teenage years!
“In spite of all the challenged adults who struggle with the green eyed monster disease, in true Carter/Knowles/Beyince [sic] tradition it just motivates you to keep it moving,” Tina concluded. “Congratulations BIC you deserve everything you work hard to get. Thank you BET #betawards for this honor.”
It”s not the first time Tina has addressed negativity directed at Blue. Back in May, Tina spoke out about critics of her granddaughter”s dance performance during “My Power” and “Black Parade” at Beyoncé”s Renaissance World Tour.
“One of her friends came back and showed her some negative comments and it was a great life lesson because her mom basically said, ”Listen, if you let this get you down, then they won. So you should go and work harder. And, you know, just work harder and get your skills together and go out there and blast it,” Tina said during an appearance on Vogue”s The Run Through podcast. “So it actually worked in Blue”s favor because she was only supposed to do it one time. But now her mom was, that mama bear was on to it. It was like, she was like, ”You go out there and kill it,” and she did. She just grew so much from that experience.”
