Beyoncé Admits She Forgot to Thank Daughter Rumi, 7, for Her Contribution on “Cowboy Carter ”at 2025 Grammy Awards

Beyoncé forgot to thank one special person in her acceptance speech for album of the year at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

After securing her long-awaited win for album of the year, the Cowboy Carter artist, 43, spoke with ET's Kevin Frazier about the moment. She noted winning felt "surreal" and that "it's been 25 years of just working really hard and trying my best to keep growing and keep opening up doors."

Ultimately, Beyoncé said that she was "very honored" and "happy" that her older daughter Blue Ivy, 13, was able to see her win. The artist also admitted to Frazier that she forgot to thank her younger daughter Rumi, 7, for her contribution to the album.

"[She's] taller than me. I don't like it at all!" Beyoncé said, referring to Blue Ivy. "I'm so happy that she was here and Rumi, who was on the album, my youngest daughter, she was watching. I forgot to thank her, so I can thank her now. Thank you, Rumi!"

Rumi is featured on the Cowboy Carter track "PROTECTOR." The 7-year-old, who has a twin brother named Sir, starts off the song, saying "Mom, can I hear the lullaby, please?"

Despite having two megastar parents, Beyoncé insists her family maintain some level of normalcy. The "Texas Hold 'Em" singer spoke to GQ in October 2024 and shared that as she's taken on new business ventures, she's had to instill new boundaries and carve out time for her family.

"One thing I've worked extremely hard on is making sure my kids can have as much normalcy and privacy as possible, ensuring my personal life isn't turned into a brand," Beyoncé shared. "It's very easy for celebrities to turn our lives into performance art."

"I try to only tour when my kids are out of school," she added. "I always dreamt of a life where I could see the world with my family and expose them to different languages, architecture and lifestyles."

Beyoncé and Jay-Z, who married in 2008 after dating since 2000, welcomed their first child, daughter Blue Ivy, in January 2012. Five years later, they added the twins, Rumi and Sir, to the family in June 2017.

"Raising three kids isn't easy. The older they get, the more they become their own individuals with unique needs, hobbies and social lives," she told GQ. "My twins are God-sent. Parenting constantly teaches you about yourself. It takes a lot of prayer and patience. I love it. It's grounding and fulfilling."
