When you grow up with superstar entertainers like Jay-Z and BeyoncΓ© as parents, youβd better be ready to have a permanent place in the spotlight. And if youβre the oldest Carter sibling, itβs your job to make sure the younger ones understand all of the responsibility that comes with the role.

Weβve told you how Bey and Jayβs youngest daughter, seven-year-old Rumi, is carving her own lane as she takes the stage with her mom and big sister Blue Ivy on the βCowboy Carterβ tour β and getting lots of attention for her excitement. But sometimes, Rumiβs excitement is a little too much for 13-year-old Blue Ivy, who has been seen getting her little sister in line β in a nice way, of course.
TikTok creator @thestevensteven just gave the Beyhive a hilarious treat, acting as Blue Ivy typing an email to her little sister with notes for how to behave on stage β on a bag of rice that provides the perfect keyboard sound effect.
In an email addressed to βRumi, my superstar sister,β Steven writes as Blue Ivy, giving the littlest Carter daughter props for her undeniable stage presence but suggesting that she stick to the choreography rather freestyling.
βPlease refer to the attached rehearsal video. It seems that the integrity has gotten a bit lost in the excitement,β it reads. βI put in too many hours for this moment to be anything less than perfect.β
βBlue Ivyβ ended the email by asking her little sister to tone down the excitement on stage, warning her that some things need to stay within the family.
βWe as Carters are hilarious women. We love life. We love to smile. We love each other. However, the fans of our mother do not deserve this information. The fans of our mother should always remain in the dark,β the βemailβ read. βIβd say youβll understand when youβre older, but you are older than you were yesterday.β
The post has received over 120,000 likes. But commenters are confident that not even a βstern emailβ from her big sis can stop Rumi from being her exuberant self on stage.
βThis email went to Rumiβs spam,β wrote someone.
Another commenter said they hope Rumi doesnβt read the βemail,β because they want every ounce of excitement when they see her on stage.
βIf Rumi doesnβt smile and wave at my show, Iβm blaming this email,β wrote someone else.
In one priceless comment, someone wrote the βreplyβ they think Rumi would send to an βemailβ like this.
βDear Blue Blue, Mama said I can do what I want because Iβm the baby. REPLY ALL,β wrote a commenter.
