A roast is an event in which a person is subjected to a public presentation of comedic insults, praise, outlandish true and untrue stories, and heartwarming tributes as a mock counter to a toast.
The roastee is able to take the jokes in good humour and not as serious criticism or insult, and it is seen by some as a great honour to be roasted.
The channel in the past has roasted celebrities like Drew Carey, Jerry Stiller, Rob Reiner, Hugh Hefner, Chevy Chase, Denis Leary, Jeff Foxworthy, Pamela Anderson, reported Us magazine.
"Finally after all that hard work for my 21st bday it's happening. Thanks RyanSeacrest & ComedyCentral for the announcement. Let's do it," he said.
It will be aired in March.
