Blue Ivy’s Met Gala debut didn’t go off quite as smoothly as it appeared, as dad Jay-Z seemingly pleaded with her to remove her sunglasses on the red carpet.

In a clip obtained by the Daily Mail, the 14-year-old daughter of Beyoncé and Jay-Z modeled her billowy cream Balenciaga dress and matching bomber jacket alongside her mother as they made their way up the famous Met Gala staircase.

Beyoncé’s publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, was seen approaching Blue Ivy while repeatedly gesturing to remove the chic cat-eye accessory.

The publicist turned to ask Beyoncé to instruct the teen to remove the shades, and stylist Ty Hunter got involved as well before a tuxedo-clad Jay-Z made the same request.

At one point, the rapper appeared to step forward so his daughter could hear him above the noise.

Blue Ivy was seemingly unmoved, ignoring the instructions and leaving the sunglasses in place as cameras flashed around her.

Proud mom Beyoncé — who wore an eye-catching skeleton-inspired gown designed by Olivier Rousteing — was seemingly unaffected by the ongoing conflict, smiling adoringly at her eldest daughter.

Clips circulating via social media following the Met Gala appeared to confirm Blue Ivy’s reluctance to remove the sunglasses.

A rep for Beyoncé and Jay-Z did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Tuesday.

For her first trip to the Met Gala, the teen also defied a major rule — in recent years, rules state that all attendees must be at least 18 years old to be included in fashion’s biggest night.

Though event organizers told the Hollywood Reporter back in 2018 that the Met Gala is “not an appropriate event for people under 18,” the outlet also clarified that exceptions can apparently be made — when accompanied by parents.

Blue Ivy benefitted from an exception, likely due in part to the fact that Beyoncé was a co-chair for the event, alongside Oscar winner Nicole Kidman, former journalist Lauren Sánchez Bezos and Vogue icon Anna Wintour.

Kidman’s daughter Sunday Rose Urban, 17, also appeared alongside her mother at the event, modeling a pale purple look by Dior.

Despite the apparent row over the sunglasses, the “Lemonade” hitmaker didn’t seem to have any qualms about her daughter’s big moment.

“It feels surreal [to be back] because my daughter’s here,” Beyoncé told Vogue at the event, acknowledging her 10-year absence from the Met Gala.

“She looks so beautiful. It’s incredible to be able to share it with her, and I think she looks so incredible,” the proud mother noted of her daughter.

She added, “She was ready. She is ready.”
