A 16-year-old black girl has appeared on Dr. Phil to tell the world that she is white.
The girl, who was identified only as 'Treasure', claims that she knows she is white and is 'completely and utterly' better than black people.
There it is, a late entrant, but a strong candidate for the worst take of the week so far.
During her introduction to the show, Treasure said: "I just know that I am white. I can feel it through my veins.
"When it comes to black people, I think they're all ugly - and I have nothing in common with them," she said.
She then went on to make a series of pretty horrendous racial slurs against black people, who she referred to as her 'supposed race' during the episode which aired in the US on Wednesday.
Her mother, Monique, also appeared on the show and said that her daughter 'truly believes that she is white'.
She went on to say that her daughter is 'consumed with the Ku Klux Klan' and said: "My daughter is a racist against her own race."
For her part, Treasure said: "I've had the KKK's number since I was in middle school.
"The way they believe is just so smart."
No. Just, no.
Stop that, seriously.
Oh, and another argument that Treasure used to 'prove' that she is white is that she has the same body shape as Kim Kardashian. Figure that one out if you can.
The teenager continued: "My figure is just like Kim Kardashian and she's a wonderful role model.
She added: "There's nothing wrong with my views or beliefs because I have freedom of speech and everything I'm saying is true.
"I don't have any issues with myself. I think God made one perfect person - it's me."

Huge, if true.
Naturally, her attitude made a few people angry - perhaps understandably - and they took to social media to tell her what they really think.
Another added: "She's a treasure alright!!!! That kid would be out on her ass SO fast! I would NEVER allow such a low, disrespectful human being to live with me..Daughter or not! She needs a HUGE reality check!"
However, some defended her. One Twitter user said: "I thought @DrPhil was grossly inappropriate, mocking, with gestures, and babbling, young Treasure. I dont believe that Treasure is racist, she suffered a psychological issue(s) and we shouldn't hate her. Her mom is also largely responsible for lying to her about her Caucasian dad."

You have to wonder where Dr. Phil finds people to appear on his show...
