Justin Bieber is to appear on the infamous “Comedy Central Roast.”
The special has already been filmed and is set to premier on March 30, 2015. However, some segments and a lot of the jokes have been posted online in video and text format. This has caused much buzz on websites like MTV and Buzzfeed.
Some of the hosts include Kevin Hart, Snoop Dogg, Shaquille O’Neal, Martha Stewart, Hannibal Buress, Ludacris and more.
Given Bieber’s infamous reputation, the jokes, most of which are not appropriate for this platform, are brutal. They range from taking hits at his previous relationship with Selena Gomez, to his delinquent past and how terrible his music and music videos are, in their opinion.
At the end of the roast, he gave an apology to his fans, saying, “I turned a lot of people off over the past few years, but I know I can still turn out good music and turn everything all around. I’ve lost some of my best qualities. For that, I am sorry. I’m looking forward to being someone who you guys can all look at and be proud of.”
He also recently appeared on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show,” trying to further explain his apologies.
“I was just talking about it being a new chapter for me and, basically, saying that I’m sorry for the stuff that I’ve done. And it’s not like I’m searching for people’s approval, but I just want people to know that that’s not me and I was doing stuff that wasn’t me. A lot of times, we pretend so that we can fit in and then we end up looking like a douche bag and that was kind of me.”
Bieber’s apologizies have seemed heartfelt and during the roast, as told by people who have seen it and the videos posted, Bieber looked like he did not know how to take the harsh jokes.
Maybe this was the wakeup call he needed.
You can catch “The Roast of Justin Bieber” on Comedy Central Monday, March 30, at 10 p.m.
