Justin Bieber used his temporary gig as host and performer on "Saturday Night Live" to apologize for smoking marijuana last month.

The 18-year-old heartthrob poked fun at himself in character as the president of Miley Cyrus' fan club.

"Miley you’re seriously my favorite singer of all time," he said. "You’re light years better than that douche Justin Bieber. ... He looks like a lesbian."

Bieber's character also said he "heard" that Bieber was "really sorry" for his alleged pot use.

"I also heard he got busted for smoking weed and he's really sorry about it and people make mistakes and he's never gonna do it again," he said.

Last month, TMZ uncovered photos that appeared to show the pop star smoking a joint with rapper Lil Twist in a Los Angeles hotel room.

Bieber never issued an official apology for the incident, though he did tweet Jan. 5 that he was still "learning."
