In a world where social media reigns supreme, even the most seasoned individuals can find themselves adrift in the sea of likes, shares, and hashtags. But fear not, for Tina Knowles, mother of the iconic Beyoncé, has found her guiding star in an unexpected source – her granddaughter, Blue Ivy Carter.
In a candid interview on Vogue’s podcast, The Run-Through, Ms. Tina shared her journey navigating Instagram’s ever-changing landscape at the ripe age of 70. With humility and humor, she admitted to occasionally stumbling on the platform, prompting Blue Ivy to intervene with calls to remove what she deemed “wack” posts. Yet, even with her granddaughter’s sage advice, Ms. Tina found herself in hot water when accidentally liking negative posts about her family – a mishap swiftly corrected by both Blue Ivy and vigilant fans.
But it’s not just social media prowess that Blue Ivy possesses; she’s also the recipient of heartfelt praise from her proud grandpa, Mathew Knowles. In a touching Instagram tribute, he lauded her determination and resilience in the face of online criticism, highlighting her commitment to perfecting her craft during Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour.
From correcting grandma’s Instagram slip-ups to using online negativity as fuel for self-improvement, Blue Ivy Carter proves that age is no barrier to digital fluency and resilience. With her guidance, Tina Knowles sails through the choppy waters of social media, proving that even in the digital age, family remains the ultimate anchor.
