Justin Bieber to Guest Star on CSI Season Premiere
Matt Richenthal at .CBS isn't typically the destination for teenage girls on a Thursday night. But that will change on September 23.
Justin Bieber will make his acting debut on the season premiere of CSI, as the 16-year old singer will portray Jason McCann. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the character is troubled teen who will have a run in with the investigative team.
He'll likely show up again later in the season.
"Every 20 years, a phenomenon like Justin Bieber graces our world," said executive producers Carol Mendelsohn, Don McGill and Anthony Zuiker in joint statement. "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. We're looking forward to Justin's dramatic star turn, not only in the premiere, but in a continuing seasonal arc."
It's okay, female readers. You may commence screaming now.
