Blue Ivy Carter is officially a Grammy Award winner!
Ahead of the 63rd annual ceremony Sunday evening (March 14), the 9-year-old daughter of Beyoncé and JAY-Z was awarded her first-ever Grammy, winning in the best music video category for Beyoncé's "Brown Skin Girl."
Blue is the second-youngest person to ever take home a Grammy award, following Leah Peasall of The Peasall Sisters, who won a Grammy for Best Album for her contribution to the "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack in 2001 at the age of 8.
Blue beat out fellow nominees Future and Drake ("Life Is Good"), Anderson .Paak ("Lockdown"), Harry Styles ("Adore You"), and Woodkid ("Goliath").
In addition to appearing in the "Brown Skin Girl" music video, Blue, as well as Wizkid and SAINt JHN, are featured on the track.
Blue's big win came just before her mom Queen Bey and Megan Thee Stallion won a Grammy for Best Rap Performance for their 2020 collab “Savage.” The two won the award over Lil Baby (“The Bigger Picture”), DaBaby (“BOP”), Jack Harlow (“WHATS POPPIN”), Big Sean (“Deep Reverence”), and the late Pop Smoke (“Dior”).
Beyoncé and Megan's win marks the first time two women have won the award.
