CBS announced last Thursday that pop star Justin Bieber had signed on to play a troubled kid in an upcoming episode of its hugely popular crime drama 'CSI.' Producers were so excited about his appearance, they've decided to give him a multi-episode storyline. He will guest star on the show's Sept. 23 season premiere and return for the fifteenth episode of the season, which will air in Feb. 2011, Hollywood Life reports."He plays Jason McCain, a troubled teenager who is faced with a difficult decision regarding his older brother," CSI executive producer Carol Mendelsohn says of Justin's dark new role.
"We think he's this really good kid who's put in this very bad situation. But we will get a glimmer at the end of the [premiere] that perhaps he's not the good kid we thought!"
"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," said creator Don McGill, writer Carol Mendelsohn and producer Anthony Zuiker in a statement. "This will be true event television."

The next star will be Lindsay Lohan. CSI just lost a viewer.

Justin Boober can't save CSI from flagging ratings. He's just another untalented, pus head flash-in-the-pan.

CSI just lost another fan, lets see the ratings after the little girl appears on CSI, probably lowest ever. Talentless loser

who even is this kid? preteen and teen girls always love these kind of singers, they will just forget about him in a year and move on to the next one. Once these girls develop musical taste or develop tastes for men that dont include looking like an eleven year old girl they will forget about him.

It's just another young singer making appearances on a TV series. It's done all the time. Why the hostility?

i hardly consider justin "a phenomenon" more like a brat with a good marketing team. memoirs from a teenager - are you kidding me?!? how can he be so arrogant?
as far as CSI, i too may have to quit watching the programme. and justin CANNOT act - hope he does not give up the day job.
