Get your skewers out, Justin Bieber is being roasted in his very own Comedy Central special. Put up your double cups -- because it's time to cheer and jeer at all things Justin Bieber!
The 20-year-old bad boy is set to be roasted during a March 7 taping,
Us Weekly reports.
And instead of shying away from the barbs and jokes, the Canadian miscreant is welcoming the roasting, apparently the Biebs has been trying to get roasted for ages. On Tuesday, a rep for Comedy Central told Ryan Seacrest, “Justin has been asking us for years to roast him ... so we kept telling him to create some more material and we’re thrilled he listened.â€
It appears as though that's the truth! Bieber took to Twitter to unleash his excitement, confirming the news, "For years I have wanted Comedy Central to roast me. They said only if I provided them w/ more material so for a year now I have worked hard. Finally after all that hard work for my 21st bday it's happening. Thanks @RyanSeacrest & @ComedyCentral for the announcement. Let's do it :)."
We can't imagine the writers will have a lack of material. From his on-again/off-again relationship with Selena Gomez to his arrests and recent Calvin Klein campaign, JB is great at making headlines! And now Comedy Central can turn all his antics into punch-line gold!
Comedy Central has roasted other notable stars, including Hugh Hefner, Bob Saget, Donald Trump, Charlie Sheen and Pamela Anderson.
Despite all the madness and mockery, Justin really seems to be a good sport about his persona. Over the weekend on
Saturday Night Live, funny ladies Kate McKinnon and Cecily Strong parodied his CK video with Dutch model Lara Stone -- and it appears as if the "Baby" singer took the jabs all in good fun.
On Saturday night, he tweeted, "Well played. Lol," to SNL's official Twitter account.
Taking it in stride!

Family time in the slammer!
Teresa Giudice received her first visit in prison from husband Joe and her daughters since checking into Connecticut's Federal Correctional Institution on Jan. 5 to begin serving her 15-month sentence,
Us Weekly reports.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star could have had them visit last weekend, but she chose to nix the meet up to keep her daughters on their schedule. "The girls had significant activities and Teresa didn't want to disrupt anything," a source told the mag.
So how is Tre being treated in the clink thus far? "All anyone is talking about is that woman — even the staff. The vultures who want to be her bestie were all over her," another insider told
Us.
Gone are the days of dinner parties and table flipping!

Turning up the heat before hitting the big screen!
Dakota Johnson appears on the February cover of
Vogue and is labeled as a "breakout star", and the actress even made a short video to accompany her spread. Her film
Fifty Shades of Grey is due to hit theaters on Valentine's Day, and whoever is doing the PR on the flick just got a major score by getting their star in America's fashion bible!
The 25-year-old looks beautiful in the glossy, but we must say this vid is a little awkward! Melanie Griffith's daughter is shown wearing a camisole in her dressing room, and when someone knocks on the door, she asks for a minute and the man, in true Christian Grey sexiness, asks, "If I do give you a minute, how long can you make it last?"
We wonder if the brunette beauty has a hit on her hands, or a complete flop!

Jennifer Lopez appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday, and after chatting about her new film, she played a round of Catchphrase with Jimmy, Anthony Mackie and Steve Higgins. But this wasn't just any ordinary game -- J. Lo's was able to use her famous booty for the final word of the game. "That was the best round of Catchphrase I've ever played in my life!" Fallon said as soon as the game was over. Check out the hilarious clip above!
J. Lo is currently promoting The Boy Next Door, and she also stepped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show for an interview, which airs today. The singer/actress shoots down rumors that she's dating much younger co-star Ryan Guzman, and she also chats about the "cougar" label. I mean, her last boyfriend WAS nearly two decades younger than her!
"I'm not after younger guys. If younger guys like me then that’s one thing," she said. "There’s like guys who just go after younger women. They have no name. No label. And you can date one person. Label." She's got a point!

Khloe Kardashian posted a pic of her with little brother Rob, and it seems like the snapshot is very recent. Not only has Rob seemingly dropped a significant amount of weight, but it seems like he's actually happy! "My ace from day 1," she wrote. We're glad
someone is cheering for Rob!
Khloe also posted a photo with stepdad Bruce Jenner, and who knows what's going on with that supposed sex change, but no matter what, his daughters are by his side! Khloe wrote, "Family 💙💙💙," and while we're sure the group was enjoying some bonding time, it seems more likely that all six of them are glammed up and in the same room together because they were shooting for their reality show.
When we polled our X17 readers last week, 55% of you think Bruce is transitioning into a woman, but 45% of you think the press has taken a rumor and run with it. Maybe the former Olympian just loves diamond studs and lip gloss? It doesn't really explain the pink nail polish...

Jennifer Lopez was super over all things
American Idol and
The Boy Next Door when she headed to a promo event in New York City on Monday. She's so over it -- she can't even ...
The 45-year-old is filming
Idol this week in NYC, as well as doing press for her upcoming thriller, which also stars rumored new toy boy Ryan Guzman and hits theaters on Friday. Sounds exhausting!
During an appearance on
Good Morning America, Lopez talked to Robin Roberts about her new role, saying that she identified with the character.
"[Claire Peterson is] late 30s-early 40s...separated about to go through a divorce, deciding, feeling like at her lowest point in her life. You know how that is, her husband's cheated on her. She doesn't know how to deal with it, and is not feeling desirable," said the singer/actress.
We will never understand how a sultry siren like Lopez could feel undesirable -- but we guess even superstars have bad hair days (although that seems doubtful) ...
For now it seems like everything is coming up roses for Jenny so we don't know what could be bugging the superstar, but we know one thing -- don't mess with JLo when she's having a bad day ...

Pop stars, models, photo shoots! Just an average Sunday night in the life of girly girl Taylor Swift!
The hit maker had a girls-only (obviously) dinner party at her home in New York City on Sunday night -- and it looked pretty damn fabulous if you ask us.
The gorgeous crew included model Gigi Hadid, Karlie Kloss, Martha Hunt, and stylist Ashley Avignone.
Along with the oh-so-glam pic, the 25-year-old called out the fact that her famous friends were all clad in black, "I didn't get the 'let's all wear black' memo."
It seems like everyone's about Tay these days! Over the weekend, a video of a veteran Delaware police officer lip syncing to "Shake It Off" went viral. The Internet seems to be loving Officer Jeff Davis' hilarious dance moves. Even Taylor tweeted a response, writing, "LOLOLOLOL THE SASS."
We can't shake off how funny we think this is!

Holding hands? Laughing? We guess LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian really do like each other -- at least 'till they meet someone better ...
The couple arrived back in Los Angeles after quick trip to Louisiana, where LeAnn performed in two shows.
For their flight, Eddie was looking oh so cool in jeans, a black sweater and a leather jacket, while LeAnn was 50 shades of grey with a short skirt that highlighted her lean legs. The twosome looked like they couldn't get enough of each other as they exited LAX last night. It seems LeAnn has been in a great mood as of late.
On Saturday she tweeted a happy message, "Best night w/ friends and family! Louisiana... I love you."
Maybe LeAnn is in such a good mood because of the rumors circulating that the "Blue" singer finally has a bun in the oven?
The duo has been doing a lot of traveling in 2015. In addition to the trip to Louisiana, LeAnn and Eddie rang in the New Year with a romantic vacation in Mexico. Perhaps that's just what the doctor ordered for for the duo whose fertility issues have been documented on their VH1 reality show,
LeAnn and Eddie.
We're not gonna lie -- we're kind of amazed that these two, who were married in 2011 after infamously leaving their spouses for each other, are still together and still smiling.
