superstar couple, who were quick to slam the 26-year-old for the decidedly low blow against an innocent child.
During a segment with co-host Brandon Broady, the pair reflected on the previous evening's MTV VMAs, with Broady introducing 'the top six things Blue Ivy thought about the VMAs'. Karrueche then delivered the line: 'I really did wake up like this because my parents never comb my hair.' Obviously immediately regretting the scripted diss, she awkwardly giggled before adding: 'Sorry Blue, I love you!'
A source close to Tran tells TMZ she simply read the joke verbatim off the teleprompter, the script apparently having changed since rehearsals. She insists she didn't see the joke beforehand and was mortified afterwards, with both she and her manager going 'nuclear' because they too felt the comment was in 'poor taste'.
Speaking to TMZ, Karrueche admitted she actually admires the child's hairstyle, saying: 'I love that Blue is able to wear her natural hair.'
BET President, Stephen Hill also issued an apology via Twitter, in which he revealed that he had reached out to Beyoncé and Jay Z and is taking 'punitive actions' against the producers who put the guest host in that unfortunate position.
