He's one of the hottest young stars in the world, so it comes as little surprise to find out that Justin Bieber has been nabbed for primetime television.

The "Favorite Girl" singer will make his much-anticipated acting debut on the season opener of hit CBS crime drama "CSI".

According to network reports, the 16-year-old Canadian singer will be playing a character named Jason McCann - “a troubled teen who is faced with a terrible decision regarding his only brother."

With the episode slated to air on Thursday, September 23rd, insiders tell that the character may very well appear later in the seventh season, as well.
