Beyoncé and her family chose to spend their Sunday in Cannes, France, instead of at the MTV VMAs in Brooklyn, but her daughter Blue Ivy Carter still made history at the ceremony. Beyoncé and Blue Ivy took home the VMA for best cinematography for “Brown Skin Girl.” At age 9, Blue is the youngest VMA winner ever, per People.
They share the award with collaborators Wizkid, SAINt JHN, and the music video’s cinematographers: Benoit Soler, Malik H. Sayeed, MOHAMMAED ATTA AHMED, Santiago Gonzalez, and Ryan Helfant.

Bey later shared photos of Blue posing with her first Grammy and drinking from it.
In her September Harper’s Bazaar interview, Beyoncé spoke a little about how Blue is already incorporating self-care into her life like her mom.
“During quarantine, I went from overindulgences to creating positive rituals drawing from past generations and putting my own spin on things,” Beyoncé said. “I discovered CBD on my last tour, and I’ve experienced its benefits for soreness and inflammation. It helped with my restless nights and the agitation that comes from not being able to fall asleep. I found healing properties in honey that benefit me and my children. And now I’m building a hemp and a honey farm. I’ve even got hives on my roof! And I’m so happy that my daughters will have the example of those rituals from me. One of my most satisfying moments as a mom is when I found Blue one day soaking in the bath with her eyes closed, using blends I created and taking time for herself to decompress and be at peace. I have so much to share…and there’s more to come soon!”
