Dr. Phil cancels his Britney Spears show

47 minutes ago



Television's "Dr. Phil" McGraw has pulled the plug on plans for a one-hour show that was to examine Britney Spears' latest public meltdown.

In a statement posted Monday on his Web site, McGraw said the 26-year-old pop star's situation was "too intense" for him to go forward with the show. He didn't say whether he planned to reschedule.

Spears was hospitalized Thursday night after a child custody dispute with ex-husband Kevin Federline resulted in an hours-long standoff with police. On Friday, a court commissioner gave sole physical and legal custody of 1-year-old Jayden James and 2-year-old Sean Preston to Federline.

McGraw said he met with Spears for an hour Saturday before she left the hospital.

he's a low life creepy fuck for going to her hospital and then using it for some tv show for ratings.

creep, i'm glad she freaked out and told him to fuck off, i would've. i love how he goes on abotu how he talked to her for an hour when truth was she was ambushed

lynne spears is a shit of a mother, because i'm sure she's doing it to milk more out of her daughters as possible. she and creepy pa simpson are a match made in heaven.

I agree with you, recalcitrant, about the Dr. Phil comments. It was so low and gross for him to try to do that. The intense publicity has probably been at least partially responsible for her fucking meltdown -- why should she have to resolve it publicly.

I remember when Anna Nicole died he was all "I invited her on the show, and offered her help. She didn't accept."
LIKE OMG DR. PHIL IS SAVIN' THE YOUNG CELEBRITIES LIVES. OURR HEROOO.

I liked Anna Nicole SMith to an embarassing degree.

I did too.

Anna was like the Great Dane of whores.

He was actually going to have a show about her? Haha I've been joking about that for a long time now.

I have the TV on in the background right now and, literally, the last 3 hours have been nothing but Britney coverage. fucking ridiculous!!!!! just a constant rehashing of all her fuckups this past year...and they keep touching on the fact that she used to be successful and popular, and how 'far' she has fallen. never thought i'd say this but i am beginning to feel bad for the girl. she is going alcoholic and crazy now because she has been STALKED by the media for so many years, combined with post partum depression and other unknown mental issues.

she needs to move to an undisclosed location and be sober for a while.

Dr Phil did a "special" episode on Britney a few months ago, so he's just rehashing something that he's already done before.

I've never really given a shit about Britney Spears, as I always thought she was the perfect good-girl Christian "southern belle" she made herself out to be.

And yet here I am, WORRIED about her. I'm not even a fan (some of her perfumes aren't bad, though.

It's because I have a bad feeling that if all the drama and craziness and media circus doesn't stop soon she will kill herself. I'm amazed she hasn't already. I truly feel bad for her, whenever I see her in the papers now (which is every other day!) I feel like there's a knot in my chest.

LEEEEAVE BRITNEY ALOOONEEE.

I was pretty disgusted that he was going to do a show on her.

If I could ask Dr. Phil one question it would be, "if you're so smart, why can't you lose some fucking weight?" He's like a poster child for impending heart failure. What an asshole.
