VH1 has once again partnered with Dr. Drew Pinsky for a fifth season of the hit reality series "Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew".

"Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew" is set to premiere Sunday, June 26 at 9 p.m. on VH1.

In the fifth installment of the "Celebrity Rehab" franchise, Dr. Drew takes viewers behind the closed doors of rehab and inside the often misunderstood treatment process. From heartbreak to hope we follow Dr. Drew and his patients on their difficult and deeply emotional journey to sobriety. An often raw and unflinching look at the many faces of addiction, Dr. Drew shows us that rehab is not a glamorous spa vacation for celebrities as portrayed in the media but a profound life changing process that offers hope for a better life.

Dr. Drew co-authored the first academic study on celebrities and narcissism that was published in the Journal of Research in Personality (Elsevier) in September 2006, and is the first systematic, empirical scholarly study of celebrity personality. Dr. Drew hosted VH1's "Sober House" and "Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew" and can be seen on MTV's "Teen Mom" and "16 & Pregnant". Additionally, Dr. Drew is hosting a new prime time show on HLN called "Dr. Drew" and will also be hosting a daytime syndicated talk show "Dr. Drew's Lifechangers" on the CW network coming fall 2011.
