Bhad Barbie - aka Danielle Bregoli but better known as ‘Cash Me Outside girl’ - has opened up about her appearance on Dr Phil when she was just 13.
Bregoli first came to public attention during an appearance on Dr Phil when she was still just a teen.
The now-20-year-old was brought onto an episode titled I Want to Give Up My Car-Stealing, Knife-Wielding, Twerking 13-Year-Old Daughter Who Tried to Frame Me for a Crime by her mum, who claimed that she was concerned about Bregoli’s out of control behaviour.

It was during this show that she uttered the infamous line ‘cash [sic] me outside, how 'bout that?’ which saw her go viral.
However, because she was whisked off to a camp for troubled teens in Utah called Turn-About Ranch straight after the show, Bregoli said she had no idea that she’d become a meme.
And it’s fair to say that she wasn’t exactly delighted about how she was viewed by the public.
Speaking on a recent episode of Emily Ratajkowski’s High Low With EmRata podcast, Bregoli said: “Imagine you get home from being in this f**king f**ked up place for f**king six months and then you open your phone and go on Facebook and all you see is yourself, and you’re 13.”
She went on to say that she was left thinking: “I didn’t kill nobody. I didn’t touch nobody kid. I didn’t kill no puppy. Why am I here? Even the worst of the worst don't get treated like that.”
And Bregoli claimed that she didn't find out the whole truth about her appearance until she was 19.
“I actually found out on my 19th birthday that my mom had been emailing Dr. Phil since I was two years old,” she claimed.
“My mom is a very narcissistic person and, you know narcissists, they like a crowd — figuratively and literally, they like a crowd. Because they feel like, ‘Well I can't convince the people who really know me, so I can convince others of whatever narrative I want to play.’”
But Bregoli didn’t let newly-found viral fame go to waste - since appearing on the show, she’s launched a rap career and then, as soon as she turned 18, signed up to OnlyFans where she charges $23.99 (£19.25) a month for a subscription to her account.
According to Forbes, she reportedly pulled in $1 million (£802,260) just six hours after joining the platform.
She was later asked by Caleb Pressley for Barstool Sports' Sundae Conversation whether those who subscribed to her OnlyFans right away 'should be in jail', to which she replied: "Yeah."
