The internet meme turned influencer and rapper has lifted the lid on her appearance on the talk show and her rise to fame.
Bhad Bhabie, real name Danielle Bregoli, shot to fame at the age of 13 following her appearance on American talk show, Dr. Phil.
You may remember as almost anyone and everyone was saying it: "Cash me ousside [sic], how 'bout that?"

Well, if you don't remember, have a look:
Appearing alongside her mother on the 2016 episode 'I Want to Give Up My Car-Stealing, Knife-Wielding, Twerking 13-Year-Old Daughter Who Tried to Frame Me for a Crime', her mum was concerned over her erratic behaviour.
The whole appearance was outrageous, but that one iconic line stuck out, holding a place in many people's minds, to this day.

It propelled the teenager to viral status, providing the foundation on which she built the fame and success that she has today.
But it turns out that Bregoli had no idea that any of that was happening, as she had been sent off to a camp for troubled teens in Utah called Turn-About-Ranch following the show.
The social media influencer revealed last year that she didn't know that she had become a meme.

But once she got back from camp and realised the magnitude of her fame, the then teenager was not over the moon.
Bregoli revealed on Emily Ratajowski's High Low With EmRata podcast in 2023: “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.”
Talking about how off guard she was at the social media attention, she said: “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.”

It may have just been an initial reaction though, as we all know now that she didn't let it weigh her down, instead taking advantage of the opportunity.
Following her viral appearance on the show, Bregoli started a rap career under the name 'Bhad Bhabie', which she is better known as today.
She signed a deal with Atlantic Records after breaking into the Billboard Hot 100 with 'These Heaux', secured deals with beauty brands, got her own reality TV show on TMZ and eventually, started an OnlyFans account on her 18th birthday.

On the 18+ site, she managed to allegedly made $18 million (£14 million) in her first month, following an amount of over $1 million (£790,000) on her first day, off the back of her $23.99 (£18.88) a month subscriptions.
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."
Bregoli also gave birth to her first child last week.
