Rolling over, sitting up … and then ice skating? Justin Bieber‘s son with wife Hailey, 6-month-old Jack Blues, could be at the rink before long if he takes after his hockey-loving, pop star dad.

Bieber was among the celebrities participating in Skate For LA Strong — a benefit hockey game held at Crypto.com Arena to raise funds for wildfire recovery efforts in Los Angeles, on Sunday (Feb. 23) — when an interviewer got in a few questions with him on camera.

First he was asked what it means to him to take part in the charity hockey game, a rare live appearance at a public event for the Canadian-born singer, who was last on tour in 2022. In the video clip Billboard captured below (also just uploaded on Billboard‘s TikTok account), Bieber can be seen answering: “It means everything.”

Bieber noted that the benefit’s participants, who were coming together to help those impacted by the widespread Los Angeles wildfires in January, were “looking to have a good time.”

“I know you’re a new dad. How soon are you looking to get your kid on skates?” Bieber, who was a member of Team Black on the ice on Sunday, was asked next. He and wife Hailey welcomed their firstborn only months ago, in August.

“As soon as possible,” Bieber said, without hesitation.

Although it’s unlikely Jack Blues is even ready to crawl yet at only six months old, and it should be some time — probably another six to nine months — before an infant of his age would reach the milestone of walking, Bieber insisted: “It’s never too early.”

Actor Steve Carell and musician Ross Lynch also laced up for Sunday’s occasion, officially titled “Skate For LA Strong: A Celebration to Support the Fire Recovery Efforts in Los Angeles.”

Serving as coaches were Snoop Dogg, Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Danny DeVito and Cobie Smulders, while Kaskade, Jordan Davis and Lauren Spencer-Smith were on the bill as musical guests.

The event had four teams competing in a single-elimination format, with celebs joined by hockey pros like Mark Messier, Jeremy Roenick, Rob Blake, Manon Rheaume and Dany Heatley, athletes from other sports, and first responders. The game was broadcast on ESPN2 and livestreamed on ESPN+.

Proceeds from Skate For LA Strong are set to benefit the Red Cross, the LA Fire Foundation, Cal Fire Foundation, and the Eaton Canyon Fire Relief and Recovery Fund.
