#12: The Rise of ‘Cash Me Outside’ Girl: From Dr. Phil to Fame

Danielle Bregoli’s rise to fame began in 2017 with her unforgettable appearance on Dr. Phil, where she uttered the now-iconic phrase, “Cash Me Outside.” Initially, she was mocked for her rebellious attitude and faced criticism for ‘blackfishing’—appropriating Black culture.

Despite the ridicule, Bregoli seized her viral moment and pivoted to music under the name Bhad Bhabie. Against the odds, she successfully transitioned into a rap career, even achieving chart success. Her evolution from an awkward talk show moment to a legitimate musical artist is a testament to her ability to turn controversy into opportunity, redefining herself in the public eye.
