Super Bowl Sunday wasn’t just about football — it also delivered a memorable family moment as Jay-Z Makes a Family Appearance With Blue Ivy and Rumi at Super Bowl 2026. The music mogul attended the big game on February 8, bringing along two of his daughters for a rare public outing.
Jay-Z, who has overseen the Super Bowl halftime show through Roc Nation since 2019, was spotted at Levi’s Stadium alongside his eldest daughter, Blue Ivy. The NFL also shared a video ahead of kickoff showing the rapper with both Blue Ivy and her younger sister, Rumi, as excitement built for the championship matchup between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks in Santa Clara, California.
The league’s official social media account simply confirmed the moment with the caption, “Jay is here,” as fans quickly took notice of the family’s appearance.
Blue Ivy Steals the Spotlight
Fresh off her 14th birthday last month, Blue Ivy turned heads as she walked across the field with her father. Many fans noted her striking resemblance to Beyoncé. Dressed in a stylish Off-White letterman jacket, she embraced the energy of the crowd — even jumping playfully for cameras as photographers captured the moment.
Jay-Z kept his look casual but meaningful, wearing a hoodie that read, “The Game Needs Me,” a fitting statement given his ongoing role in shaping the Super Bowl’s entertainment lineup.
The Carter Family’s Rare Public Outing
Jay-Z and Beyoncé share three children — Blue Ivy and twins Rumi and Sir, who are now eight years old. While Sir did not appear at the event, Rumi joined her father and sister for the special day.
The superstar couple, married since 2008, typically keep their family life private. Although Beyoncé was not seen at the game, she recently appeared alongside Jay-Z at the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix in November.
A Packed Entertainment Lineup
Beyond the family sighting, the 2026 Super Bowl delivered a full slate of musical performances. Green Day kicked off the festivities with an energetic opening medley, while Charlie Puth performed the national anthem. Brandi Carlile delivered a powerful rendition of “America the Beautiful,” and Coco Jones sang “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” The night’s biggest musical moment came during the halftime show, headlined by global superstar Bad Bunny.
Between the high-stakes game and unforgettable performances, the Carter family’s appearance added an extra layer of star power — making this Super Bowl one to remember.
