Dr. Drew<\/a><\/strong> gets candid with E! News’ Justin Sylvester<\/a><\/strong> on Just The Sip<\/em>, where they talk about the importance of celebrities raising mental health awareness and balancing social media time.<\/p>\n

The 60-year-old celebrity doctor says, “People like Demi Lovato<\/a><\/strong> and Selena Gomez<\/a><\/strong> are taking the crucible themselves, which I’m just so excited about, and saying, ‘Hey this is a common thing, I’m talking about it.'”<\/p>\n

“For them, social media almost gives them a sense of accountability,” the Daily Pop<\/em> host chimes in.<\/p>\n

Dr. Drew points out that many celebs, especially high profile ones, are under a microscope, therefore, they’re taking control of their own narrative. Because if not, others will.<\/p>\n

He recalls an incident where the “Taki Taki” singer was blasted for merely holding a teacup.<\/p>\n

“Selena Gomez had a tea cup and Taylor Swift<\/a><\/strong> had a glass of wine on New Year’s Eve or a glass of champagne. ‘Selena Gomez, she shouldn’t be drinking.’ What? Come on.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The celeb doctor continues, “Selena has lupus, she had a kidney transplant… f—–g toast the New Year.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“It’s harsh and it cuts deep what people say about them. I don’t know how people withstand it,” Pinsky sympathetically states. “You have to just cut [social media] off periodically.”<\/p>\n

He admits that because social media “is part of their job,” celebrities have a hard time staying away for too long. “I think [they] have to be in it,” adding, “As a caretaker, I wish I could say ‘Get out of it entirely, just shut it off forever.'”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In the interview, Dr. Drew also talks about sexual orientation, the biggest misconception about sex and more. Watch the full interview above to get the full scoop!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
