Justin Timberlake did what he does best on last night’s season episode of “Saturday Night Live.”
The 32-year-old singer took to the stage and blew America away with performances of “Only When I Walk Away” and “Pair Of Wings.” But it wasn’t just his vocals that stole show. Justin teamed up with his comedy partner in crime, Jimmy Fallon, to present skits like “Wrappinville Cold Open,” “Family Feud Celeb Edition,” “#Hashtag,” and “The Barry Gibb Talk Show.”
According to Deadline, the episode — which also included cameos from Madonna, Paul McCartney, Michael Bloomberg and Barry Gibb — averaged “a 6.3 household rating in Nielsen’s 56 metered markets and a 3.9/18 in adults 18-49,” SNL‘s highest ratings in both categories in nearly two years.
