Comedy Central (DStv channel 122) is turning up the heat on pop icon Justin Bieber. The network announced today that Bieber will be this year’s Roastee. The “Comedy Central Roast of Justin Bieber” will tape in Los Angeles (taping and airdate will be announced shortly).

“Justin has been asking us for a few years to roast him, and we just kept telling him to go create more source material first. We’re thrilled he listened,” said Kent Alterman, President, Content Development & Original Programming, Comedy Central.

Added Evert van der Veer, Head of Comedy Central, Africa, “The Roast franchise just keeps getting better and better - just when you’re thinking ‘who else is there left to roast?’, we go and secure a pop culture phenomenon like Justin - a stroke of ‘unbeliebable’ comic genius!”
