The Oscars are Hollywood’s biggest night, but on the red carpet Sunday comedian Kevin Hart gave a little preview for a big upcoming night in comedy – “The Comedy Central Roast of Justin Bieber.”

Hart was announced as the “roast master” at the upcoming Comedy Central special and it seems like the hosting duty is not far from his mind, even on the Oscars red carpet.

“Its deep. I’m gonna kill it. I’m gonna give him a couple rib shots he’s not expecting,” said Hart. “At the end of the day you bought a monkey. I’m gonna talk about it.”

Hart is referring to a strange bit of news that surfaced in 2013 that Bieber had purchased a pet monkey ... that had later been confiscated at an airport in Germany. The unorthodox pet was taken by a customs official after the singer did not have the proper documentation to be transporting the animal. The story is one of the many wild tabloid tales that is sure to make the singer an easy target for Comedy Central’s gauntlet of comedians.

The highly-anticipated comedy event will air Monday, Mar. 30 on Comedy Central. The roster of the roasters – besides Hart, of course – have not yet been announced.

Fans will have to wait until March to see Bieber get lampooned at the Comedy Central Roast. However, viewers can watch Hart and many more A-list celebrities at the Oscars Sunday night.
