Bieber ‘Nervous’ About Roast – ARTICLE

The comedians are coming after Justin Bieber and the pop star is feeling some pre-Roast jitters.

"Man, I've gotta say, I'm a little nervous," Justin told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush on Tuesday at Desert Smash about his upcoming Comedy Central Roast.

"It should be a lot of fun," the singer continued.

So was Biebs at all hesitant about facing the comedians – who are not known for holding back – on the dais?

"A little bit at first, but then they told me that Kevin [Hart] was going to host it and I was like, 'Cool.' This is my guy right here," Justin said.

Kevin, who was also on hand at Tuesday's Desert Smash, told Access and Justin what to expect from the comedic skewering.

"People don't know this, Biebs is one of my closest guys," the actor/comedian explained. "I've spoken on his behalf several times and the goal is to set the environment up for a good time."

But that doesn't mean his friend is off limits for a few well-placed jabs.

"Am I going to hit him a couple times? Of course!" Kevin said. "But, it's not gonna be malicious. It's not going to be to the point where it's mean."
