'Men in Black 3' Director Revealed Why Justin Bieber Is Perfect to Play Alien

Just as it was in the first two movie, "Men in Black" will feature a host of celebrity including the Canadian Pop/R&B singer-songwriter, musician, and actor, Justin Bieber who will feature in the film as an alien. Weighing in on Bieber's appearance in the action comedy film, director Barry Sonnenfield explained why Bieber is okay to play the role of an alien in the movie.

Sonnenfeld said to Vulture, "This will get me into trouble, but my theory behind Justin Bieber is that he's from Canada." The filmmaker then explained a larger theory about aliens in Canada which sent spies to the United States. However, when those aliens tried to transmit the data back to their home planets, "3 percent of it got scrambled in the transmission" so they got the wrong coordinates and ended up living in Canada instead.

"Canadians are 97 point something percent like Americans, except that they're way too nice and if you go into their homes, you'll go, 'Interesting! Fireplace in the bathroom'," Sonnenfeld joked. Therefore, the director said some Canadians are quite possibly aliens.

Sonnenfeld went on joking that Bieber was apparently not the only suspected alien in "MIB 3". He explained, "There was a Chinese seven-foot basketball player, Yao Ming, who is retired now. But how many Chinese people are over seven feet tall?" He added that David Beckham is also an alien "because he's too good of a soccer player," while Shaun White is an alien because "he's just good to be human. He's using anti-gravity techniques."

Talking about Tim Burton's role in the movie, the produced said "He knows enough aliens that they keep surveillance on him." He jokingly added, "He may be procreating with an alien [meaning Helena Bonham Carter]. I'm not saying she is an alien, but the Men in Black aren't sure [about her]."

Sonnenfield also commented on eccentric songstress Lada Gaga saying "I like that Lady Gaga's alien name is also Lady GaGa." He added, "And the funny thing about Barbra Streisand is the alien name I came up with for her was Babs of Newtonia, and she said, 'That won't work. It'll sound like I'm supporting Newt Gingrich.' So we had to take the word 'Newt' out of her alien name, and I respected that totally." 

"Men in Black 3" follows Richard Lovett who has experiencd some inexplicable things in his 15years with the MIB, but nothung perplexes him as much as his partner Tommy Lee Jones' Agent K. K's life was put at stake at the same time the fate of the planet was also put at stake, For them to put things in order J will have no other choice than to travel down speedly and join hands with Josh young K.

The movie has opened in theaters across United States on Friday, May 25.
