Six-year-old Blue Ivy stole the show when she decided to bid $19k on some art, as her parents tried to pry away the bidding paddle from her grip. Last night, Beyonce, Jay -Z and Blue attended the 2nd Annual Wearable Art Gala at Alexandria Ballrooms in Los Angeles, in matching outfits. The evening’s theme was ‘From WACO to Wakanda’ and everyone’s outfits reflected the Black Panther. Sitting in between her parents waving the paddle board to grab the auctioneers attention.
Then came the moment when Blue jumped in on the live auction event and bid $17,000 on an acrylic painting of the actor Sidney Poitier. Her dad Jay Z’s reaction to that is just priceless. Watch below.
Jay Z tried to stop his daughter from bidding the tens of thousands of dollars but failed Blue Ivy didn’t even give up when the price bumped up to $19,000.
Blue was asked by the auctioneer if she’ll bid 19,000 dollars. Blue waves her number excitedly and beams when her name is called out to the crowd. But Jay Z appears to be smiling through gritted teeth and even tries to put her hand down. Press play to watch:
Vanity Fair reports Blue Ivy lost the bidding war to Tyler Perry, who won the painting for $20,000. But that didn’t stop Blue Ivy, who next bid $10,000 and won a different piece of art made up of deconstructed law and medical texts.
