Blaire White Episode of ‘Dr. Phil’ Nixed by the Syndicated Talk Show Host
Blaire White is a conservative, transgender YouTube star who was recently due to appear on an episode of Dr. Phil. However, a recent news report revealed that White’s episode on the syndicated talk show was axed. And that cancellation came from none other than Dr. Phil himself. Blaire White had one story for the cancellation. And, naturally, the good doctor had another.
Who is Blaire White?
Known for her conservative views, Blaire White has become popular on YouTube with America’s political right-wing. She has spoken out against the Black Lives Matter movement. And she has made claims of receiving “death threats” for her views. She even claimed that the FBI had to get involved.
In an interview with Newsweek, she claimed that she never experienced any sort of discrimination or violence for being transgender. However, she claimed that she had been assaulted for being a supporter of Donald Trump.
“I am a transgender woman who lives my life and goes out every day as myself,” she said to the outlet. “I have never been assaulted for being trans. I’ve never had anyone on the street say anything nasty to me about being trans. But I was assaulted for wearing a Trump hat. I think that speaks for itself.”
White claimed she was ‘canceled’ due to her political views
On her YouTube channel, Blaire White claimed that Dr. Phil invited her to tape an episode of his eponymous talk show. However, the episode was subsequently yanked from the lineup for “legal reasons.” White, of course, called shenanigans on the claim.
“I think this is just bulls**t because I’ve watched enough of the Dr. Phil show to know that there are people on that show all the time talking about people who are not on stage with them,” she said, according to The Daily Mail. “I’m thinking, and this is just me speculating, I have no way of knowing this for sure, I think that it’s possible that they filmed with me, and then they kind of looked more into who I was. And maybe because I’m not necessarily daytime friendly they decided that it wasn’t going to be a good thing to air me.”
She went on to claim that the syndicated talk show “canceled” her because she “diverged” from what she called “trans talking points.” And she concluded her claim by saying that she was ultimately removed from the show because “they didn’t agree with me politically.”
But subsequent research into this claim proves that Blaire White’s theory has no basis in fact.
But Dr. Phil has a different story
In the past, Dr. Phil has had controversial conservative commentator Ben Shapiro on his show. In fact, Shapiro was not only given a platform to share his conservative views, but he even had an opportunity to “plug” his latest book called The Right Side of History.
Neither Dr. Phil nor CBS responded to the Daily Mail’s request for comment. However, Blaire White claimed that Dr. Phil pulled her episode of the show because she spoke extensively about family members that weren’t present for the taping.
