Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Jay-Z’s eldest child – Blue Ivy – became the youngest winner at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night.

The Brown Skin Girl music video won the Moon Man trophy for best cinematography – Benoit Soler, Malik H. Sayeed, Mohammaed Atta Ahmed, Santiago Gonzalez, and Ryan Helfant.

The regal celebration of black debutantes – which dropped a year ago – beat out the DPs for Billie Eilish, Foo Fighters, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, and Lorde.
However, Silk Sonic (Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak) took home the Moon Man trophy for best R&B video for their track Leave the Door Open instead of Brown Skin Girl.
Carter’s grandmother Tina Lawson – who’s vacationing with Beyoncé and Jay-Z in Italy – was the first to publicly congratulate her via Instagram on Monday morning.
The MTV honor came six months after Blue, Knowles-Carter, Saint Jhn, and Wizkid won best music video for Brown Skin Girl at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.

Blue’s last gig was narrating author Matthew A. Cherry’s 2020 audiobook for Hair Love about an African-American father doing his daughter’s hair for the first time.
