Jay Z says his eldest daughter Blue Ivy asks him for fashion advice instead of going to her mom, Beyonce. Blue Ivy has always been a daddy’s girl. So it’s no surprise that she emulates his style.
“She used to be frontin’ on me a little bit,” Jay Z told Gayle King during a sit-down interview on CBS Mornings. “But I catch her. I catch her in the corner, you know? Now she asks me, if this is cool, if her sneakers or whatever she’s wearing.”
Jay Z said he reminded his daughter that he’s the coolest parent. “I’m cool. ‘I don’t know what you sayin,’ I’m cool. You got cool parents! At your house, your parents [are] cool.'”
The 11-year-old’s tomboy style ranges from hoodies and baggy jeans to throwback jerseys. Blue Ivy is the firstborn child of Beyonce and Jay Z. She won her first Grammy Award at age 9 for Best Music Video for “Brown Skin Girl.”
Blue Ivy worked a summer job as a principal dancer on Beyonce’s Renaissance World Tour. The youngster’s work ethic impressed her godmother, Kelly Rowland, an original member of Destiny’s Child.
“I’m very proud,” Kelly exclusively told E! News in August. “She works very freaking hard, period. But how could she not, you know? She sees her mother in action and she sees her father in action and how they apply everything, hard work to everything that they do.”
Jay Z, 53, also shares 6-year-old twins Rumi and Sir with Beyonce, 42.
