Blue Ivy Carter isn’t a baby anymore. The beautiful daughter of billionaire superstars Jay Z and Beyonce is now a tween, and she looks and acts like one too.
Now 12 years old, Blue Ivy’s transformation into a “big girl” hasn’t gone unnoticed, as fans and social media users were quick to comment on a photo that popped up online.

In the photo, Blue Ivy is seen wearing blue jean cargo pants paired with a matching jacket and a simple white silk scarf as a top, revealing her bare clavicle and shoulders. She completed her look with a pair of Air Jordan 1 Retro High sneakers in University Blue, black, and white.
She was walking with her two best friends, who both attend the same elite Beverly Hills school that Beyonce’s daughter attends. The school costs nearly $60,000 a year to attend, and children have to meet strict academic standards to be admitted.
For many fans, it feels as though they have spent the last 12 years watching Blue Ivy grow in front of their very eyes,. One user wrote, “not blue ivy out by herself with friends getting papped up. my sister is growing up oh wow.”
Popular TikTok personality Blakely Thornton shared, “This is a picture of Blue Ivy Carter out and about in LA,” he says in the video. “This is what someone born in 2012 looks like. Baby she’s out here reading, writing, doing arithmetic.”
Adding, she “didn’t experience a white president until the second half of her life” and that she “read about the Spice Girls breakup in history books.”
His key takeaway from these photos: “Time keeps chugging along!” He goes on to tell his followers to “do the things” because time goes on no matter what!
