Bey and Jay don't play with their reputations (at least not with their legal team). Piers Morgan – yes, the guy who claimed he lost his job Good morning Britain for refusing to apologize for his comments about Meghan Markle — has publicly apologized to Beyoncé and Jay-Z less than a week after guesting on Beyoncé and Jay-Z Uncensored Show made allegations about her. Singer Jaguar Wright brought up the Carters when he appeared on an Oct. 2 episode and discussed the allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs. “For four years now, not only have I been screaming about Diddy, but Diddy and Jay-Z are monsters,” Wright said, going on to claim that Jay-Z and Beyoncé had hundreds of “victims.” In an October 8th monologueMorgan said the couple's lawyers said Wright's claims were “completely false and have no basis in fact.” According to Morgan, his show will comply with a “legal request” to retract the claims. “Editing interviews is not something we do on a show called Uncensored. But like the proverbial screams of fire in a crowded theater, there are legal limits for us too,” Morgan said. “And we apologize to Jay-Z and Beyoncé.”
