6 of Blue Ivy’s Best Performances (So Far) (2 of 4)

Blue Ivy’s Dance Recital Performance Is Pure Joy

Blue Ivy absolutely lit up the stage during her dance recital, dressed in an adorable sparkly pink tutu that matched her big smile. At just four years old, she had no trouble keeping up with the music—or the moves. Performing to “Can’t Stop the Beat” from Hairspray, she nailed the choreography with confidence and charm, earning a well-deserved spot in the recital program’s credits. It’s clear she’s picked up a thing or two from her superstar mom—those hip shakes didn’t miss a beat!

Blue Ivy’s “Manager” Era

Fans online have long joked that Blue Ivy is Beyoncé’s “manager,” and with good reason. She’s constantly seen calm, composed, and whispering queenly wisdom in her mom’s ear. During the 2025 Grammy Awards, for example, Blue gave her mom the nudge to take the stage when Beyoncé won both Best Country Album and Album of the Year. Was it just a cute moment? Did the little one give her mom the executive order?

Even in “Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé,” Blue’s influence was as clear as day. She convinced Beyoncé to keep the fan-favorite song “Diva” on the final tour setlist. That track not only stayed in rotation for way longer than it should have but also became a very important moment in the Cowboy Carter tour, cementing Blue’s status as more than just a backup dancer.
