A hug and a kiss on the cheek in front of the cameras? Completely embarrassing for Blue Ivy!
Swimming lessons for Jay-Z
Blue Ivy Carter was born into a family that couldn’t be more creative or musical. Mom Beyoncé confirmed her pregnancy during her performance at the MTV VMAs in 2011 before giving birth to their first daughter on January 7, 2012.
Father Jay-Z finally put everything on hold and lovingly took care of his firstborn. He even faced his fear and took swimming lessons, the ‘Empire State of Mine’ hitmaker admitted to ‘The Shop: Uninterrupted.’
“I didn’t learn to swim until Blue was born. It’s a metaphor for our relationship: If she ever falls in the water and I can’t save her…I can’t even think about it! I had to learn how to swim. That’s it. That was the beginning of our relationship,” Jay-Z said.
That’s how big Blue is now
Now ten years old, Blue Ivy is the recipient of a GRAMMY, an MTV Video Music Award and a BET Award for the collaboration “Brown Skin Girl” with her mother Beyoncé. She often sits on the sidelines at sporting events with her daddy and seems to be following in Beyoncé’s footsteps – at least in terms of looks:
Appropriately, Jay-Z seems to have been more than just proud of his daughter at the NBA Finals, who found the hugs and kisses in front of the cameras more than just embarrassing:
Whether Blue Ivy or her siblings Rumi and Sir Carter will also make it big musically or whether they would rather live a life away from the limelight has not yet been discussed by their famous parents.
