Dr. Phil is the most ridiculous celebrity in my opinion. I totally lost respect for him when the tubby talk-show therapist started selling “diet books” and power bars that middle aged, overweight housewives scooped up by the handfuls because, ‘hes a doctor..and Oprah likes him’.

But now I think he’s just plain delusional. Sources report that Dr. Phil is desperate to have his life story played out on the big screen and he thinks the perfect person to portray would be…..wait for it…George freaking Clooney!

We hear the Oscar-nominated actor is reportedly being courted for the role of “Tell It Like It Is” Phil in a proposed film about his life — but if George’s lack of enthusiasm is any indication of his likeliness to take on the project, Phil better not hold his breath.

“Dr. Phil actually set up a meeting with George to pitch him on the idea,” according to The Globe. “George didn’t seem too overly excited, but did say he’d willing to read a script once it’s complicated and they’ll go from there.”

I’m thinking more along the lines of Phillip Seymour Hoffman or the very bald Michael Chiklis.
