 A producer for BET's video countdown show 106 & Park was suspended after a VJ made an insensitive joke about Jay Z and Beyoncé's daughter Blue Ivy on Monday's broadcast, the Associated Press reports. The reprimand stemmed from a comment guest host Karrueche Tran said about the 2-year-old child's hair, a source at BET told AP under the condition of anonymity.
The dig, reportedly read off a script, was made during a satirical segment "The Top 6 Things Blue Ivy Thought About the VMAs." Tran said: "I really did wake up like this, because my parents never comb my hair." (Blue Ivy attended the MTV Music Video Awards with her parents Sunday night, and appeared onstage with Jay Z during the presentation of Beyoncé's Video Vanguard award.)
