Drake Apologizes For BET Performance

Drake was asked about his controversial BET Awards performance of the song "Every Girl," which featured Lil Wayne and - in a reportedly spur-of-the-moment decision - Lil Wayne's young daughter and her friends dancing in the background.

In the song, Wayne and Drake rap about having sexual relations with "every girl in the world," which made the presence of Wayne's underage daughter and her friends upsetting to many viewers.

There are reports that the girls' appearance took place at the last minute after Weezy's daughter demanded that she and her friends be allowed onstage. In an interview with Complex magazine, Drake said he regrets the decision to bring them onstage.

"Yeah, it was just timed very poorly and it definitely wasn't planned like that, but with that being said, it is what is," said Drake. "I believe in Wayne and myself and it's nothing we can't bounce back from. To anyone who was offended, my personal apologies, it wasn't intended to offend anybody."

Days after being lambasted for its 2009 awards programming BET says it "regrets" and will edit encore presentations of the show.

"BET Networks deeply regrets the performance by Young money at the BET Awards 09 (featuring Lil Wayne, Drake, Mack Maine, and Gudda Gudda)," a BET representative told AllHipHop.com.
