Coffee Talk: BET Apologizes to Beyonce and Jay Z for Blue Ivy Joke on '106 & Park'

Blue Ivy Carter’s adorable turn at the MTV VMAs had everyone talking. But things took a turn for the uncomfortable when Karrueche Tran—aka Chris Brown’s girlfriend— commented on Blue’s hair during a segment on BET’s 106 & Park. “I really did wake up like this, because my parents never comb my hair,” said Tran, reading from a teleprompter. Stephen Hill, BET’s music programming and specials president, made a public apology on  Twitter, making it clear that Tran was not at fault for the comment. “We apologize to her for putting her in that position,” he tweeted. The show’s producer has been suspended.
