Well, that’s one way to trick tweens into caring about what’s going on in Egypt: Justin Bieber subbed in for Jon Stewart during the opening monologue of ‘The Daily Show’ on Thursday, taking over Stewart’s body and his signature pen toss. But before he got to interview Adm. Mike Mullen (imagined line of questioning: ‘What’s America’s official policy on ‘Never Say Never’?’), Stewart crashed the set, dressed in a Bieber-esque blue hoodie, muttering, ‘Yo, yo, yo. What’s up? What’s up, swag? Yo, what’s up? I found the magic skull, swag. We can finally switch back to our original bodies, yo!’ Then... well, you can watch the rest above, including (yes) a conversation about Bieber’s ‘so natural’ hair. Then explain something to us: Does this mean Stewart has dibs on Selena Gomez? We will call them... Stewena.
