MTV prank franchise ‘Punk’d’ could scarcely have been more in-one’s-face when it was presented by celebrity tweeter/cheater Ashton Kutcher, but that’ll possibly change now that ‘Punk’d’ producers (one of whom is, in fact, Ashton Kutcher) have appointed the modest and unassuming likes of Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and ‘Jackass’ man Bam Margera to act as guest hosts of the show’s new series.

Young Bieber, who isn’t really so young any more, comperes ‘Punk’d’ proceedings in a brand new trailer for the forthcoming run, the premise of his ‘punk’ being to fool country sweetheart Taylor Swift into believing she has ruined a stranger’s wedding.

“I think we should start with Taylor”, schemes Bieber. “She’s the sweetest girl ever”.

Cut to Swift, looking on in horror as a wedding cruise ship is set alight, its bedraggled bride struggling to shore, saying: “This is completely not okay”.

So what, exactly, does Swift get out of all this? Undue guilt, significant emotional trauma and an awkward embrace from a sandy-haired man child once it’s over. And nobody, but nobody, deserves that.
