So after weeks of talking about how he regretted talking about Britney, Dr. Phil found himself in a unique position today: talking about Britney Spears on The View. Did you get that?
The psychologist had already booked the daytime gig before Britney’s hospitalization earlier this morning. But since the whole point purpose of his visit was to talk about the pop singer, he was fortunate enough to capitalize on today’s events. Strangely enough, this was the least-confident Dr. Phil I can recall seeing. Although he didn’t believing meeting Spears in the hospital was wrong, he was a little defensive - and not really at ease - during his conversation with the ladies.
“And all I’ve ever tried to do is help in this situation…and provide some help…and by that I don’t mean like sitting down and doing therapy with her because I don’t do that anymore. I haven’t done that for a long, long time - don’t want to do it. But I’ve always felt like…and had offered to the family to help…uh, get her into the hands of the right kinds of professionals that could provide medical support and psychological or psychiatric support. And I don’t know the circumstances of how she’s wound up back in the hospital today but if it’s moving in that direction, then that could be a good thing.”
