In Tina Knowles Lawson's "Wearable Art Gala" in Santa Monica, the 7-year-old put on a performance in a beautiful "Lion King" inspired costume.

Blue is definitely her mother's daughter, who is a natural in front of the camera. While singing along to the catchy tune, she showed off her beautiful outfit and enjoyed every bit of it. No doubt, the young girl is bound to be one of the next generation's best performers, and we're definitely looking forward to that day.
