Uh oh!

Dr. Drew Pinsky might be in huge trouble if it can be proved that he was paid to talk up Wellbutrin and its antidepressant effects!

Did they slip him a hundo (short for hundred dollar bill) before he gave talks on his radio show??

Nope, try $275,000 (allegedly).

All of this came about during the justice department's case against drug company GlaxoSmithKline, which has agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor criminal charges and pay $3 billion for committing healthcare fraud.

Which is the largest fraud settlement like that in U.S. history.

Back in 1999, Dr. Drew allegedly was paid the money over two months in “settings where it did not appear that [he] was speaking for GSK.”

Whoops!

Maybe people shouldn't do shady things like this — then they wouldn't get into trouble down the road!

Easy as that!

If Lindsay says no, we know a certain someone named Michael Lohan who would LOVE to do an interview with you, Dr. Drew!

Dr. Drew Pinsky premieres this March on HLN, and the good doctor wants Lindsay Lohan and Miley Cyrus to come on his show.

Here's what he had to say when asked about LiLo:

“I want to apply my head to that material, but I would like to really approach it in a different way.

I want to talk about what’s really going on with a woman who’s suffering like that. I think a better example is Miley."

Sounds like he's even MORE innerested in Mileybird.

We'd certainly be curious to see both interviews. Guess we'll see if Dr. Drew can make them happen.

As we said before, if they don't work, he should call Papa Lohan! He won't get turned down there LOLs.
