She’ll be their protector.
Beyoncé sweetly paid a rare tribute to her husband, Jay-Z, and their three kids during the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Award at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Monday night.
“My husband, my rock, my best friend, I love you,” she said while accepting the Innovator Award. “My three beautiful 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, who continue to be my inspiration and my biggest blessing.”
Beyoncé, 42, married Jay-Z, 54, in 2008. They welcomed daughter Blue Ivy in 2012 followed by twins Rumi and Sir in 2017.
The “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer also took a moment to shout out the innovators who paved the way for her illustrious career, including Stevie Wonder, who presented her with the trophy.
“Thank you to Rosetta Tharpe, Miss Tracy Chapman, Linda Martell, Prince, Stevie Wonder, André 3000, Tina Turner, Michael Jackson and so many more who defied any label placed upon them,” she said while dressed in a Western-themed black leather Versace outfit.
