"Top Six Things Blue Ivy Thought At The VMAs" began Tran's co-host. Karrueche followed the host's lead. As Blue's number 6 thought, Karrueche said, "I really did wake up like this, because my parents never comb my hair."

After the joke, Karrueche quickly said, "Sorry Blue! I love you." However, the giggly apology didn't stop the wave of backlash from viewers who pounced on Karrueche's Twitter and Instagram accounts.

TMZ reports that Karrueche had no choice but to read the prompter and was livid after the broadcast because she also found the joke about the 2-year-old disrespectful.

Karrueche told the website that she likes Blue Ivy's 'do, saying, "I love that Blue is able to wear her natural hair."

BET President of Music Programming Stephen Hill reportedly reached out to Jay Z and Beyonce to issue an apology and has taken "punitive actions" with the producers who are responsible for the comment.

Hill the following statement on Twitter:

The model, who is best known as the on-and-off girlfriend of singer Chris Brown, took to Instagram to address the situation and apologize for her role in the scandal.

"Past two days have been extremely draining," Karrueche writes. "As I geared up for a big day for myself - hosting a live show.. I never expected things to turn out this way.. I apologize to any and everyone who felt offended in any way by the comments made by BET executed through me.. I would never disrespect anyone's child in any way and anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE Beyoncé. My comments have been in complete shambles.. yes I am human too and yes I do make mistakes.. But all this negativity and death wishes are quite a lot.. Definitely a lesson learned from here forth.. Again, on behalf of MYSELF, my sincerest apologies #BeyHive."
