On their selection to hire Justin, the exec producers said in a joint statement, "Every 20 years, a phenomenon like Justin Bieber graces our world. We'd like to believe that the phenomenon of CSI has had the same impact on popular culture. The opportunity to bring them together in the premiere is a great treat for our audience and all of its new viewers. This will be true event television. We're looking forward to Justin's dramatic star turn, not only in the premiere, but in a continuing seasonal arc."

The show indeed has invited music stars such as Taylor Swift and John Mayer in the past. CBS did not announce a date for Bieber's appearance but then the network also has not released its Fall premiere schedule.
