Beyoncé and her little girl had a big mother-daughter moment at Renaissance World Tour concert film premiere that left Tina Knowles “in tears.”
Blue Ivy, 11, wore a look that seemed to match her megastar mother, 42, at the star-studded event in London. The pre-teen was dressed in a sleek black one-shoulder Versace dress, smiling as her mum arrived with her.
Beyoncé’s mom shared a video from the premiere showing the “Break My Soul” songstress rubbing her daughter’s shoulders. After Blue asked if she was cold, Beyoncé left her daughter so photographers could get solo shots of her.
“This just made me cry. To the fans who are out there supporting this beautiful talented 11 year old, I thank you, I appreciate you ❤️❤️,” Tina captioned the post.
Blue will also be featured in the film after she joins her mom on stage for several stops on her Renaissance world tour this summer.

Tina Knowles documents granddaughter Blue Ivy, 11, putting on makeup: ‘It never ceases to amaze me’
In a teaser for the film, Beyoncé admitted that the thought of her daughter joining her on stage at all wasn’t something she was particularly excited about.
Originally, the idea was for Blue Ivy to appear on stage only once, but even that was not a plan that the singer was very enthusiastic about. In the film, she said that performing in front of thousands is not the place for an 11-year-old girl.
Beyoncé said she almost fainted when her daughter joined her on stage for the first time.

Blue Ivy’s grandmother, Tina Knowles-Lawson, told PEOPLE in July that her granddaughter’s confidence has soared “through the sky” since her first performance.
“She’s 11 and she’s had a week to prepare and she’s getting better and better,” said Knowles-Lawson, 69. “So I’m always a proud grandma.”
She joked: “This is a family in heels. You’re taught to walk in heels early,” before adding of Blue Ivy, “She’s having a great time and I couldn’t be more proud of her because she’s worked really hard.”
JAY-Z, 53, also expressed his pride in his daughter during an interview with Gayle King on CBS Morning last month, saying: “I still get goosebumps when I see her walk on stage.”
“She was born into a life she didn’t ask for. So, ever since she was born, she was under scrutiny and in the public eye and everyone had an opinion even as a little girl, how she maintains her hair,” he said. “So for her to be on that stage and regain her power, and the song called ‘My Power,’ you couldn’t write a better script.”
