War of words: Justin Bieber with Marg Helgenberger on the set of CSI earlier this year


Justin Bieber has hit back at CSI actress Marg Helgenberger after she branded him 'kind of a brat' following his guest appearance on the hit crime drama.

The 17-year-old singer took to Twitter today to respond to the criticism, labelling her comments 'kinda lame'.

Helgenberger, 52, plays CSI investigator Catherine Willows and has received Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for her role.

The teen heartthrob played troubled teen Jason McCann in two episodes of the show, broadcast earlier this year.

She complained that he locked a producer in a closet and put his fist through a cake meant for the cast to enjoy during his time on set.

Bieber tweeted today: 'It's kinda lame when someone you met briefly and never worked with comments on you.

'I will continue to wish them luck and be kind. I know who i am and sometimes people r just going 2 say what they want. Keep ur head up and be the man ur mama raised.'

An hour later, he added, 'Dont spread gossip and dont spread rumors about others...im a kid and i know that. #respect.'

Helgenberger made her comment during an interview with with a French reporter from Europe1.

'I shouldn’t be saying this but he was kind of a brat,' she said when asked about working with the Baby singer.

'He was very nice to me. But he locked one of the producers in a closet and he put his fist through a cake that was on the cast’s table.'

Helgenberger visibly rolled her eyes when asked if his role was written to raise ratings, or because the singer is 'truly a good actor.'

'Justin Bieber wasn’t bad bad,' Helgenberger said. 'But he’d never acted before... He’s better than you’d think.'

Helgenberger's critique was very different to the official line on Bieber.

‘He did a really good job,’ CSI's executive producer Carol Mendelsohn told USA Today earlier this year.

The character was a member of an anti-government family whose foster dad was in jail and whose brother was out for revenge against the police.

The second episode ended with Bieber's character being gunned down in a stand-off with police.

Bieber said at the time that he was excited about the role.

'It was really cool because I actually - I get shot, like several times,' he said.

'I fall down and there's fake blood and everything. It's crazy how the whole process is.'
