“B. Scott — an openly gay transgender person — is suing BET,  claiming the network humiliated him during the recent BET Awards by yanking him  off the show because he was wearing women’s clothes.

Scott claims in his  lawsuit — obtained by TMZ — he was hired to be the Style Stage Correspondent  for the pre-show in June.  At the beginning of the show, Scott claims he  was wearing a flowing black tunic and black pants … which he says were  approved by BET honchos.

Scott claims after the first segment of the  pre-show, he was pulled backstage and told his garb wasn’t acceptable.   Scott says he was ordered to “mute the makeup, pull back his hair” and remove  the women’s wear … which included heels.

Scott says they forced him to  change into men’s clothing. Nonetheless … Scott says he was  still 86’d from the show and replaced by Adrienne Bailon.”

SHAME on BET did they not know who B.Scott was when they hired him for the awards show, he”s clearly transgender and known in the industry for being just that! So whats the big deal BET, how humiliating indeed I hope B.Scott gets what hes asking for.
