Dr. Phil’s Analyzes Kanye West: ‘You Can Be Stupid And Get Away With It’


Dr. Phil thinks Kanye West is “stupid.” Plain and simple. That’s his professional opinion, of course. The 65-year-old psychologist made a guest appearance on James Corden’s show, during which he called West “stupid,” according to Perez Hilton.

Kanye West has made a number of scandalous appearances in the media over the recent weeks, which is why Dr. Phil made such a harsh comment about the rapper. West recently revealed on Twitter that he is $53 million in debt and then he started begging famous money providers, including Facebook’s creator Mark Zuckerberg, to bail him out.

West also made quite a stir during his latest appearance on Saturday Night Live, where he had a run-in with Taylor Swift. But apparently, the 38-year-old rapper is not depressed or going through some difficult stage in his life. No, according to Dr. Phil, West is just plain “stupid.”

Dr. Phil shared his professional opinion on Monday, when host Corden asked him to analyze West’s confused mental state. Phil said that no one can be that wrong so many times in a row “unless you’re working at it.”

When asked by Corden if Dr. Phil thinks West is trying to cause a stir, the 65-year-old psychologist responded that the fact they’re talking about it means the rapper is indeed trying to cause a stir.

“We’re talking about it, aren’t we? I mean he just gets up, says something and we’re here talking about it.”

Dr. Phil also said that while everybody does “stuff” from time to time, nothing that everybody does something really stupid sometimes, entertainers today are living in the world when people think they need to have an audience for everything. And that means people are “narcissistic,” the doctor concluded.

“Now you say something incredibly stupid and they’re reading it in China in seconds. You can be stupid and get away with it.”

Dr. Phil can be romantic, too; at least, on Valentine’s Day. The psychologist surprised his wife Robin during last Friday’s episode on February 12 of The Dr. Phil Show, as reported by the Daily Mail.

In the introduction, Dr. Phil said that although his wife is always the one who plans surprises, on the occasion of Valentine’s Day, the Dr. Phil Show host decided to surprise his wife, simply by surprising her.

Dr. Phil then introduced on stage his wife’s “number one favorite artist and band of all time” their 29-year-old son Jordan. Jordan, along with his band Hundred Handed, Kato and the Ellis Alice performed a song called “Doctor.”

Robin was quite pleased with the surprise, to say the least. Dr. Phil and Robin also have a son named Jay, who is married to model Erica Dahm. Robin has featured on The Dr. Phil Show since it started airing in 2002. This summer, the two will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary.

Two days before the Valentine’s Day surprise on the show, Dr. Phil made an exclusive episode featuring the father of Nicole Lovell, the girl who was the victim of an alleged murder plot by two Virginia Tech students, according to wUSA 9.

Dr. Phil interviewed the parents of the 13-year-old girl, during which new information about the tragedy surfaced. Dr. Phil also found out that her parents had recently prohibited her from using all social media platforms because she was chatting “inappropriately” with older male individuals.

Dr. Phil noted that there are way too many sides and dimensions to the tragic story. He also pointed out that many kids have been blaming themselves over the last few months that they had destroyed the girl’s self-esteem by bullying her.
