Justin Bieber to Guest Star on This Season's Premiere!
Jul 23 2010, 7:48 AM EDT | Post edited: Jul 23 2010, 7:48 AM EDT
In his acting debut, multi-platinum singing sensation Justin Bieber will guest star in the season premiere of the CBS Television Studios and Jerry Bruckheimer Television series, CSI
Bieber will play Jason McCann, a troubled teen who is faced with a terrible decision regarding his only brother-a decision that leads him into an explosive confrontation with the CSIs. It is the beginning of an emotional story that will conclude later in the season.
"Every 20 years, a phenomenon like Justin Bieber graces our world. We'd like to believe that the phenomenon of CSI has had the same impact on popular culture. The opportunity to bring them together in the premiere is a great treat for our audience and all of its new viewers. This will be true event television," Executive Producers Carol Mendelsohn, Don McGill and Anthony Zuiker said in joint statement. "We're looking forward to Justin's dramatic star turn, not only in the premiere, but in a continuing seasonal arc."
Born in Stratford, Ontario, Justin Bieber is a multi-talented pop/R&B singer, and a self-taught musician on drums, guitar, piano and trumpet.
Bieber's video for "Baby" is currently the most-watched music video on YouTube with more than 250 million views. Bieber is the first solo artist in history to send four songs from a debut album into the Billboard Hot 100's Top 40 prior to the album's release. He is also the youngest male solo artist in the history of the Billboard 200 to chart a #1 album since 13-year-old Little Stevie Wonder in the summer of 1963.
In 2007, manager Scooter Braun brought 13-year old Justin to Atlanta, where he met multi-platinum superstar Usher. Justin signed his first professional deal with RBMG, the joint-venture label formed by Usher and Braun with Antonio ‘L.A.' Reid, Chairman, Island Def Jam Music Group.
Now in its eleventh season, CSI is the most-watched television show in the world.

I strongly disagree with CSI's choice, sure it'll boost tween viewers, but tweens aren't really supposed to watch CSI.
I think you would be hard pressed to find a CSI fan who is also a Bieber fan, but I could be wrong, I don't like him anyway

No it is not a joke it is for real :)

@CSIDunne you are right a 100% but as they said : "Every 20 years, a phenomenon like Justin Bieber graces our world. We'd like to believe that the phenomenon of CSI has had the same impact on popular culture." it might serve as a boost of ratings, seeing that it has been bumpy ever since Grissom left

I'm not sure about the ratings ! "a phenomenon like Justin Bieber " ? Is this the new artistic direction they were talking about ?
Faye Dunaway had been a real guest star but not Justin Bieber ; I'm sure that his fans barely know CSI !

Justin Bieber- no, they're really going to have that girl on the show? (And btw I do know it's a guy, but if you've heard him sing...). What were they thinking? There's a bunch of teens who watch it already (including me) and Bieber may just make me say no. Just kidding- i heart CSI but still... dumb idea. Do you find this valuable?

I think we should just wait and see what happens. He just might surprise us.

In my day it was Bobby Sherman then Donny Osmond and Michael Jackson and David Cassidy that sent the girls screaming.

Kill. Me. Now. Does he have to be everywhere!? It's not enough that I hear his pre-pubescent voice every time I turn on the radio, but now he'll be there when I watch one of my favorite shows!!!! This is terrible! 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
