Ellen DeGeneres may be done with American Idol, but not with teen idols.

The talk show host -- who Tweeted Thursday that the "biggest star in the world surprised me on the show" -- indeed got quite the cameo, in the form of YouTube sensation-turned-2010's biggest breakout star, Justin Bieber.
DeGeneres began the impromptu bit reading a letter from a viewer named Marissa who was upset her TiVo taping device didn't work the day he'd previously appeared on the program.
At that point, DeGeneres said, "Hey Justin!" and the 16-year-old Baby, Baby singer -- who was hiding behind the couch -- emerged to a raucous ovation from the studio audience.
The Canadian teen idol Bieber said he'd hoped Marissa's TiVo was working properly for her.
Then, Ellen unleashed another surprise: R&B star Usher (who signed Bieber to his label last year). The three exchanged a few pleasantries -- with DeGeneres calling Bieber a super talent -- before Usher and Bieber thrilled the audience by cutting a few steps on Ellen's hardwood set.
