Dr. Phil Show Britney Spears Special

When the story first broke over the weekend about Dr. Phil visiting Britney Spears in the hospital and walking her to her car, (as was originally reported), I thought the whole thing was cute. Sweet. I guessed Britney wanted to rub his bald head for good luck. I thought it was adorable and kind hearted of a passionate medical professional.

Boy was I wrong! Shortly after it was reported that Dr. Phil counseled Britney in the hospital, he leaked the following statement that I thought was very backstabber-ish:
"My meeting with Britney and some of her family members this morning in her room at Cedars leaves me convinced more than ever that she is in dire need of both medical and psychological intervention.

She was released moments before my arrival and was packing when I entered the room. We visited for about an hour before I walked with her to her car. I am very concerned for her."

Then the truth came out. Dr. Phil is trying to exploit Britney Spears so he can claim he's the martyr who saved her from herself. TMZ reported the folowing:

Dr. Phil's visit with Britney Spears was not exactly as advertised.

People on the 7th floor at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center say the doctor arrived about 7:30 AM Saturday. Britney did not invite him in; she didn't even know he was coming. It was Brit's parents who told Dr. Phil to go to the hospital. When he walked into her room, a blindsided Britney walked out -- and eventually came back.


Phil tried speaking with Spears for about 15 minutes -- not an hour as Dr. Phil's press release states -- but she wanted none of it. Phil was doing almost all the talking. As for walking with her to the car on her way out -- again, as his release states -- we're told if he was walking behind her, that's news to her. She absolutely was not accompanied by him.
Sources say Dr. Phil somehow convinced Brit's mom and dad to be on his show, which will tape Monday and air Tuesday (it was just moved up a day), but as one person put it, "Based on the interaction between Dr. Phil and Britney this morning, it'll be a cold day in hell before Britney goes on his show." We're told she absolutely will not appear on the program.

Sources say Dr. Phil wants to do a television intervention, something that isn't sitting well with some of the people who have known for a while that Britney has a very serious mental condition -- likely a bipolar disorder that is now in the red zone.

I'm so happy doctors are lashing out at Dr. Phil. He's such a pig.
Britney had no idea Dr. Phil was coming to her room and indeed when he walked in she became agitated and walked out. She eventually came back in and he pretty much did all the talking for around 15 minutes.

One psychiatrist called it "intrusive and inappropriate." Another shrink told us the hospital "is supposed to be a safe place. If the patient doesn't want to see someone, that person doesn't get in -- period."

Another shrink, who said he was "outraged and disgusted," added, "It is incredible that the hospital allowed Dr. Phil in her room. It's a total violation of her rights."
