Toddler Blue Ivy’s appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards last night certainly set many hearts aflutter. It was a veritable public relations coup for the troubled couple Beyonce and Jay-Z, who’ve been fighting off persistent rumors of marital trouble.

But not everyone was feeling it. Many viewers wondered if it was appropriate for the little girl to be there at all as scantily-clad grown-ups shook their lady parts.

Is #Beyoncé trying to show Blue Ivy her life from conception to present in the form of dance? #inappropriate #VMAs #VMAs2014

Am I the only who thinks it's inappropriate for Blue Ivy to see that Bey performance? #VMAs

I think it's so inappropriate for blue ivy to be watching this when her mother is on stage spreading her legs so everyone to see

At least Jay and Bey didn’t tote Blue Ivy to the VMAs last year.
