With teen pop star Justin Bieber’s telegenic looks and huge following, it was inevitable for Hollywood to come knocking. And now the Baby singer, who has done some skits on Saturday Night Live and, most recently, on MTV’s Movie Awards, is set to make his acting debut with an arc on CBS’ veteran crime drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. I bet millions of tween and teen girls are now asking their moms: What is CSI? Yes, the demographic of the CSI audience is decades older than Bieber’s army of fans, but the mothership series previously scored with the guest casting of another teen music superstar, Taylor Swift. Bieber will make his debut on CSI in the season premiere, playing “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.” A bit too heavy for a first acting gig, eh? I bet a Justin Bieber movie is not far away.

that’s so great!!! Justin is exactly what this dark and gritty show needs! it was so bad last year. go justin!
lol….are you joking? When I think dark and gritty, the words “Justin” and “Bieber” don’t exactly come to mind….however, the words “douche” and “future reahbber” do come to mind when I think of Justin Bieber
Unfair. How he fits into CSI or any other TV show I don’t know but as far as his singing/vocal/dancing chops he really does have above average talent.
I can’t wait for this kid to overdose. Just looking at him makes me physically-ill. Is he parodying Eminem in that picture? Nauseating.
HI
JUSTIN BIEBER ANGELA LOVE AND SOME FUN TIME GOOD AND SOON SOME FUN AND SOME
thats really mean.. do you know how many teen girls like me would die if anyone of us meet justin bieber? well do you. i seriously doubt that any of my friends would approve of your statement especially when you are dissing justin bieber. i dont think justin would be to happy with you either.
i love last years episode of csi i am a fifteen year old girl (i dont get why they said most 15 yr olds would be asking there parents what is csi ) but i think every1 should be given a chance justin has a kind of disney channel face i would neva expect him to be on csi but things can change i never expexted demi lovato to be on greys anotomy and she was and she played the part perfectaly i like justins songs but im not crazy bought him if he can sing about love he has neva felt and act like he is in love in his videos(never let you go)he surely can act.i am a singer i no how hard it is to sing about something u dont feel but u think of some1 or something important to u in ur life then u will certanaly get the part your acting, and if u cant do that then you must be a very unemotional person
This must be the “jumping the shark” episode…
Justin is a terrible actor he should stick to singing songs about love he has never felt.
Way to play to your audience – I’m sure the 35 year old demo is ecstatic about this.
That didn’t take Nick Styne long…
Bieber will be a troubled teen faced with a terrible decision regarding his brother who’s been kidnapped—- SHOULD HE GO AND PERFORM IN NORTH KOREA TO GET HIM OUT??
I thought he made his debut a while ago. He was so-so on SNL. Tina Fey made it work, but he didn’t ruin it or anything (kinda like Timberlake’s better moments on the show).
How many “debuts” can you have? Because he was already on the Nick TV show “True Jackson VP.”
It says many teen girls will be asking “What is CSI?” Not true for me! I love Justin Bieber and CSI, Criminal Minds, CSI NY, CSI Miami, and any other crime drama like that is basically all i watch. so i am so happy and thrilled to have Justin Drew Bieber appear on one of my favorite shows. Criminal Minds is my favorite so i desperately hope he will appear on Criminal Minds!!!!!!!
me too and im only 12 years old i love watchin mysterious and scary movies..but u dont see lots of gurls that are young watchin csi
if u dont like Justin appearing on the show than keep the comments 2 urself cuz no one cares. i think he is an amazing singer and actor so suck it. and i also a teen girl love watching CSI and other crime dramas. im not like it says in the intro saying im gonna ask my parents say what is that? no. i am all about crime dramas. i agree. put him on criminal minds 2!!
omg i totally agree with you i love csi(i cried when warrick brown died) and crimal minds anything crime dramas, people should give him a chance i neva knew demi lovato could act so welll tilll i saw her on greys anotomy i never expexted tat to happen in a million yrs and she waz amazing, justin has done a few ads so you never no if he will actually be good.i pray to god that the day the eposide airs that it is the best episode ever on csi den tat will really shut people up n stop them from hatin
Well said >:D
if u dont like Justin appearing on the show than keep the comments 2 urself cuz no one cares. i think he is an amazing singer and actor so suck it. i am a 15 year old girl and all i watch is crime dramas. i know what CSI is unlike what it says in the intro. Criminal Minds is my favorite so he should be put on that as well. criminal minds, csi, csi ny, csi miami, the glades, ncis, ect. anything having 2 do with a crime drama. so keep ur comments 2 urself u u dont like him. cuz millions of other ppl like him and will support him all the way. besides, at least 100,000,000 more viewers on csi than they usually get.
You didn’t have to tell us you’re 15, your terrible grammar did it for you. Learn to write, no one will ever take you seriously otherwise – there’s a fascinating world of punctuation, capitalization and spelling to unlock.
maybe you should keep your comments to yourself to. ever thought of that?
does any one know wen this airs on tv

wow im a 12 girl that love CSI and i think that he shouldnt be come a part of it because the role sounds to deep for this kid
i think justin bieber will do an awesome job as a ‘bad boy’. wait–i KNOW he’ll do an awesome job. he is extremely talented for 16 yrs. old. he is an awesome singer and dancer, and i cant wait to see him show off his acting skills on CSI. hes an awesome guy. (luv ya, j-bieb;)
pffffft are u kidding me? when i think of justin bieber i dont think of bad boy. i think of “My Little Pony”
i mean seriously?
NO OFFENSE
peace.
p.s. oh wait, yeah i meant a little offense there…and there.
I also agree that csi is not a good place for justin to be. He is a great singer and has a great attitude.
JUSTIN SHOULD NOT BE ON CSI HE TOO GOOD OF A SINGER AND HE SHOULD STAY WITH SINGING!!!!!!!
I love how people who hate Bieber write negative comments on articles and videos about him. That’s definitely the best way to show your hatred. Search around the web looking for traces of articles or videos that could be pro-Bieber, and then write something mean about him. Thumbs up to you guys. It doesn’t make you looks obsessive or pathetic in the least bit =D
Okay, one question… Does anybody know what his role is, cause there’s a picture and rumors going around. But alot of people said its a picture from his upcoming role on CSI, so ANYBODY???
i love youuhh justin u r my <3 r
This is great, My fav singer, Justin Bieber, in my fav tv programme!!! This is a dream come true! Btw does anyone know when its gonna b on tv?
i really think this acting thing on csi will help justin get way more fans, most people dont like him bc everyone ELESE talks bout him nonstop so it gets agervating but i think he is C.U.T.E. – HOT! i will so be watching that episode and i will also watch it over and over and over and over and over and over
actually jb offered to do the part he figured it would be fun
I don’t really have any objections to Justin Bieber, even though I hate his songs, but I just can’t understand the marketing angle that these people are taking. Wouldn’t it be so much easier for them to stick Bieber in some random Disney sitcom and catapult it’s ratings instead of putting him in CSI, whose target audience probably has no idea who he is (I envy them)?
I can’t believe people are excited of Justin Bieber. The kid is not a good singer, not a good actor, but yet, he’s famous. BTW, if you don’t like the post (to those who love Justin), that’s fine, as I have a right to post along with those who don’t like the kid. They can post if they want too.
Bieber on csi? Am I the only 16-yo on the planet that thinks that’s a really bad idea? I have no dish with his singing, to each their own idea of what good music is, but the way he’s taken over the lives of teens like me is sickening. These girls are devoted to him like he’s a god, and everything he says and does personally affects their lives. Charlie manson, anyone?
