When "Celebrity Rehab" host Dr. Drew Pinsky showed up to the Staples Center, he told his people there was one thing he had to do first: visit with Pugs and Kelly, broadcasting live from the 50th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. Visit Live1053.com for more from Pugs & Kelly and all of our other shows.

"My goal was always to be part of pop culture". - Dr. Fucking Drew Pinsky
I rest my case after conceding he is not a shrink. I was convinced he was. Ya can't trust a guy who says that. It goes against his Hippocratic oath, if only slightly so.

I wouldn't go that far. He is in between. He was a med student when he first started making regular appearances on a radio show, but he has a career outside of media stuff. According to wikipedia, he also teaches at USC's med school, and works in a hospital. And he's double board certified in IM and addiction medicine (not psychiatry BTW).
Ian K. Smith is a good example of a celebrity who is a doctor.

@eqsmooth Dr. Drew is a doctor who is a celebrity, not a celebrity who is a doctor, just like Dr. Oz....He is good at maintaining his image as a doctor and a celebrity...That's very commendable...Dr. Drew has helped many people via his radio and tv shows, one such being, "Celebrity Rehab"...Not all doctors need to be in private practice and/or in hospitals...Doctors have become a part of the media landscape...Look at Sanjay Gupta from CNN...He still practices at a hospital but does CNN as well.

@pagalley1 That is just so lame. He is a CELEBRITY who also has a degree in Psychiatry. A celebrity first, doctor second. Get it? He is really good at maintaining his image: the hair, the voice, the focus, the glasses, the personal attire and grooming. It is all designed to maintain his image so that you think he is the greatest doctor the planet. How many doctors do you know who go to the Grammy Awards? He is just a celebrity w/an opinion. You've been fooled just like all the Dr. Oz followers.
