Beyoncé Reinforces Her Status Of Self-Made Royalty With More Blue Ivy Carter Pictures


Over the weekend, Beyoncé’s site posted more pictures of Blue Ivy Carter in her mom’s heels, which would generally be a cute moment for a regular hard-working citizen to indulge in when showing it to other regular people, but for Beyoncé and her followers, it’s intended to humanize someone who’s always in the spotlight, and considers themselves to be American royalty.

Over the last few weeks, Americans were forced to weigh in on the images of President Barack Obama, as he was visiting the British monarchy, with him and Prince George wearing a bathrobe.

Those images, while distant and tolerated for the field of statesmen, were still viewed in disgust as some way to make the monarchy relevant, legitimizing the next generation of royalty.

A recent image of Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy Carter — which shows them dancing backstage while “mum” was performing — also captured the oohs and ahs of Beyoncé fans as a weaponized moment of cuteness.

But we all know what these images are meant to do; they’re meant to exploit the vulnerability of her emotional fans to humanize the pop queen, practically around the clock, which is not very different from what British royalty demands from its citizens.

A likely loyal Beyoncé fan and writer for a brief article published on USA Today suggests that their security team should step it up to protect both Jay-Z and Blue Ivy.

Not long ago, the Inquisitr wrote about a police union in Nashville, which was suggesting to its officers that they do not need to commit to offering their services to protect the singer, as a way to boycott her for her tribute to the Black Panthers at this year’s Super Bowl.

So in a sense, questioning security vulnerabilities here is distantly ironic.

Certainly, the introduction of Blue Ivy into her overly wealthy mother’s business plans is something to keep the fans interested, while she’s working her singing profession to rake in the mints.

But what Blue Ivy Carter’s presence also does is to proclaim her royalty, which is the complete opposite of how she viewed the situation when she was pregnant. Because before Beyoncé gave birth to Blue Ivy Carter, she went far and beyond to keep everything as secretive as she possibly could.

The Huffington Post for instance reported on the complaints of some women who claim to have been mistreated by hospital staff around the time of Blue Ivy’s birth, as the diva had apparently paid $1.3 million to rent out the entire fourth floor of the Lenox Hill Hospital in New York, having cell phones confiscated and taping up security cameras. But the Post also suggests that the surrounding floors might have also been affected.

The executive director of the hospital, Frank Danza, put out a statement around the time of Blue Ivy’s birth not only to congratulate the overwhelmingly financially secure couple on their new baby, but also to dispute the story that they had rented out the floor or that regular people who were there to visit their children were roughed up.

It was in this case that he also stated that Beyoncé’s people have their own security, and that they too have their own and they were not replaced or bought out by the vocalist.

Even so, according to the New York Post which published an article last year on how the 1 percent are paying top dollar to get the kinds of accommodations they want to turn their hospital stay into a hotel, a senior administrative director for Lenox Hill was quoted as saying that those options were not available before, which would also suggest that he’s admitting to now offering it.

But it should be plainly obvious, just by the unconventional and overly pretentious name of Blue Ivy, that Beyoncé and Jay-Z see themselves as royalty, and want you to see it too, hidden behind the deceptive cover of feminist empowerment.
