Timberlake opened the show performing as Elton John. Then, in his opening monologue he discussed his new club “Five Timers’” membership, among the likes of Hanks, Chase and Baldwin.

"There are so many exciting things about hosting five times," Timberlake said. "You get to see old friends; you get to try new things. You get to inevitably let everyone down due to incredibly high expectations — thanks, Internet.”

Also acting as the musical guest for the night, MTV reported that Timberlake showcased the first two singles from his upcoming album, The 20/20 Experience. It is his third solo album and is due out March 19.

During his performance of 'Suit & Tie', collaborator, Jay-Z joined in.
