No one is a bigger fan of the Carter family than Tina Knowles herself, always taking every opportunity she can to shower her famous family members with praise and support.
The 70-year-old will often share sweet tributes to them on social media, and recently got the chance to gush over none other than her granddaughter, Blue Ivy Carter.
Tina came across a clip of the 12-year-old while on tour with her mom Beyoncé, performing as a member of the dance troupe for the headline-making Renaissance world tour back in 2023.
As a 11-year-old, Blue joined her mom, 42, on some of the world's biggest stages and instantly cemented herself as a breakout star, attracting praise from fans particularly for her willingness to improve and marked increase in proficiency as the shows went on.
Tina shared a clip that a fan had posted of Blue joining her mom on stage for the Seattle concert on September 14, part of the tour's final leg, and showcasing her impressive dance moves as her mom cheered for her.
"Just came across this video of my grandbaby killing it on that stage 11 years old," Tina gushed, and fans of the star were immediately enthralled.
They inundated the post with comments like: "WHEN YOUR MOTHER IS YOUR BIGGEST CHEERLEADER," and: "This is HER dance. She completely OWNED it…every single time!!!" as well as: "This is my favorite clip of Blue during the tour! Baby sis, did that lil march before she proceeded to kill it!!"
