Christina Milian is voicing her support for Blue Ivy, BeyoncĆ©ā€™s daughter, after she faced criticism over her appearance at the Los Angeles premiere for Mufasa: Lion King.

Blue Ivy, who voices Kiara in the film, faced backlash over the outfit she wore to Tuesday's (December 10) red carpet premiere. The 12-year-old appeared on the carpet in a strapless, gold ball gown alongside her parents, Bey and Jay-Z, and her grandma, Tina Knowles.

During her appearance on the Sherri Shepherd Show, Milian addressed social media critics who deemed Blue's dress as "inappropriate."

ā€œFirst of all, she looks gorgeous. I think the fact that anybody has anything to say about someone elseā€™s daughter, any minor, I think just mind your business," Milian said.

ā€œSheā€™s talented, she toured the world with her mom, like thereā€™s nothing you can say. You canā€™t dim that shineā€¦Let that baby glow," she added.

The Carters appeared at the Mufasa: Lion King premiere just one day after Jay-Z was named in a lawsuit alleging that he raped a 13-year-old girl alongside Diddy at an MTV Video Music Awards afterparty in 2000. Jay-Z quickly released a statement denying the allegations against him.

Amid all the social media buzz, BeyoncƩ celebrated her daughter's film accomplishment in a social media post.

ā€œMy gorgeous baby girl,ā€ Bey wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of Blue. ā€œThis is your night. You worked hard and you did such a beautiful job as the voice of Kiara. Your family could not be prouder. Keep shining.ā€
