Justin Bieber confirmed for 'The Simpsons' cameo

Canadian superstar Justin Bieber has been confirmed for a cameo on the well-loved American animated series, 'The Simpsons'.

The 'Boyfriend' sensation reportedly shared the news himself by posting about it in a tweet yesterday (August 21), although the message has since been deleted: "Just did a voice over for the SIMPSONS!!! #swaggy."

Executive producer of 'The Simpsons', Al Jean, spoke about Bieber's role to Entertainment Weekly and encouraged his fans to tune in to the episode:

"He tries to get into a talent show that Bart is playing piano in and they won't admit him. Draw your own conclusions."

"It's a Cameo. But all of his fans should watch every minute of the show, before and after he's on."

Earlier this year, modern pop icon Lady Gaga appeared as herself on 'The Simpsons' and 'Teenage Dream' beauty Katy Perry has also starred in an episode during a live puppet segment.
