The Canadian born Bieber baby is scheduled to be roasted on a Comedy Central Special, and apparently, the Biebs has been working for his shot in the comedy lime-light for quite some time now.
In a Facebook post, Bieber wrote “for years I have wanted Comedy Central to roast me. They said only if I provided them with more material, so for a year now I have worked hard. Finally after all that hard work, for my 21st bday, it's happening.”

Comedy Central confirmed the singer's roast on their Facebook. J-biebs' roast will be taped in Los Angeles on March 7th although, an air-date has yet to be announced.
“Justin has been asking us for a few years to roast him, and we just kept telling him to create more source material first. We're thrilled he listened,” said Kent Alterman, President of Comedy Central.
After Saturday Night Live's spoof of Bieber in his Calvin Klein boxers, the comedians doing the roasting will surely have some solid material.
