Dr. Phil sued by former guest
Article via PageSix
Dr. Phil and a former guest are at odds over residual paychecks.
The talk show host is being sued for $10,000 by Josie Goldberg for her appearances on a 2010 episode aptly titled, “Spoiled and Entitled,” and a 2011 episode titled, “Smart Women, Dumb Choices?,” The Blast reports. She also claimed that she appeared on a 2014 episode featuring the best guests from the show, followed by a 2017 episode checking in on her.
Goldberg alleged that as a SAG/AFTRA performer, she is owed an estimated $10,000 from the episodes as her appearances have continued to generate revenue for the show.
Dr. Phil’s wife, Robin McGraw, is also listed in the suit as Goldberg claimed that Robin laughed at her and gave a “thumbs up” in response to a guest’s comments about Goldberg on the show. As a result, she claims that people have not wanted to work with her and wants $10,000.
A rep for Dr. Phil did not get back to us.
