BET host B. Scott is suing the network, "claiming he was ordered to 86 his flowing blue tonic, black pants, hair, makeup and heels because they wanted him to look more like a man," reports TMZ. BET executives are well aware that B. Scott is a transgender person and he is angry at the humiliation this has caused.

Somehow, TMZ has obtained explosive internal emails and texts between BET execs who admit to have made their transgender change his clothes during a pre-show for the BET Awards. B. Scott was first seen looking glamorous in what looked like yes, female attire and then poof, he was gone. The host was later seen in a complete different outfit, looking much more manlier than he did before.

Monique Ware, a BET executive said this in an email discussing the B.Scott lawsuit: "The spin should be he was late for a live show and subsequently replaced and it would have been awkward in a live show to have the person assuming his role removed and him inserted."

"Unless we can make public the reason we didn't want him dressed the way he normally does, I would stay away from suits, suit selections, etc." Ware continued.

The scandal started with an email from BET Music Programming Prez Stephen Hill who wrote this to Network VP Rhonda Cowan before the show: "I don't want 'looking like a woman B Scott.' I want tempered B Scott." Rhonda responded "I can speak to him about being less 'womanly.'" Reports say that B.Scott went "ballistic" after the request was made and BET Producer Stephanie Hodges wrote an email shortly after the broadcast warning her colleagues, "He got upset and said he was going to blow this s**t up and call GLAAD."

Now, we all know what happens to television networks when GLAAD is called -- remember the Duck Dynasty incident with A&E? BET has released a statement saying that they "embraces global diversity" and did not mean to offend anyone in the LGBT community. Oh-oh, BET... now you're in trouble.
