Scott agreed to change into men's clothes but was never put back on air, instead being replaced by singer Adrienne Bailon.

[20] In January 2014, *TMZ* obtained and released internal emails indicating that BET executives had discussed their desire to prevent Scott from appearing "too feminine" on air.

'"[24][25] Another BET executive, Monica Ware, advised avoiding public disclosure of the reasons for the dress code change.

[25] In April 2014, BET won the lawsuit when Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Yvette Palazuelos ruled that BET’s right to control its creative expression, including managing on-screen talent attire, was protected by the First Amendment, ultimately overruling Scott's claims of discrimination.

Scott expressed pride in making history as the first trans non-binary person to host and executive produce a show at BET, stating, "I am in a place of forgiveness and I am honored to help turn the page on the past and be a part of the network's move toward a more inclusive future for everyone.

But in 2015, he emerged from the subsequent discrimination lawsuit on a higher plane, with his own successful celebrity news and entertainment website, video opportunities, and an undisclosed settlement sum in the bank.
