VH1 announced Tuesday that it has begun production of its fifth The Surreal Life installment. Billed as "better, stronger and faster" than ever before, the ten-episode The Surreal Life 5 will premiere Sunday, September 4, 2005 and feature an outspoken admitted steroids user and two notorious reality show divas among its seven celebrities -- a combination expected to result in the show's most explosive cast yet.

Also likely to be familiar to viewers is the face of Jose Canseco, the one-time superstar baseball slugger who recently appeared on newcasts around the country due to the publication of his Juiced : Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits, and How Baseball Got Big steroids exposé book that resulted in his appearance at congressional hearings investigating Major League Baseball's drug testing policies.
Rounding out the cast will be four less controversial celebrities -- Salt-n-Pepa hip-hop group member Sandi "Pepa" Denton, motorcross madman Carey Hart, British model Caprice, and Bronson Pinchot, the actor best known for his role as Balki Bartokomous in ABC's late 80's Perfect Strangers sitcom.
