Blue Ivy Carter, the 12-year-old daughter of Jay-Z and Beyoncé, stole the spotlight at the Los Angeles premiere of “Mufasa: The Lion King” on December 9. Her glamorous look quickly sparked debate online, with some netizens commenting that her appearance made her seem older than she is.

Blue Ivy wore a strapless, voluminous metallic gold gown that exuded elegance and poise. She completed the look with long manicured nails, glamorous makeup, and cascading curls — a regal style that naturally drew comparisons to her superstar mother.

The premiere was a proud moment for Blue Ivy, who voices Kiara, the daughter of Simba (voiced by Donald Glover) and Nala (voiced by Beyoncé), in Disney’s upcoming “The Lion King” prequel.

Standing proudly alongside her parents, and grandmother Tina Knowles, the young star embraced the spotlight and celebrated a milestone in her blossoming career.

Beyoncé took to Instagram to celebrate her daughter’s accomplishment. “My gorgeous baby girl. This is your night. You worked hard and you did such a beautiful job as the voice of Kiara. Your family could not be prouder. Keep shining,” her post read.

While Beyoncé shared her admiration, Blue Ivy’s red carpet appearance sparked mixed reactions online. One user wrote, “Why is a 12 year old wearing a dress with push up boob cups is all I’m asking [sic].” Another added, “And a ton of makeup,” while someone else commented, “and long nails ‍♀️ [sic].”

A fourth remarked, “How old is Blu? She looks 20.” Amid the criticism, many others expressed admiration for the young star’s appearance. “Blue ivy is looking like her mother wow [sic],” a fan gushed. “Blue is beautiful ,” another raved.

Social media users expressed surprise at Blue Ivy’s height, with many saying she looked taller than Beyoncé. Others praised her elegance and poise and compared her natural grace to her mother’s. Many remarked on her growth, calling her a “beautiful child.”

Netizens have often commented on Blue Ivy’s fashion, including her look at the “Wicked” premiere on November 9.

Drawing inspiration from the signature color of one of the main characters in the film, Blue Ivy Carter donned a pink gown that not everyone felt was age-appropriate.
