This Sunday marks the end of an era - MTV's Total Request Live will go dark after more than a decade on the air. Current host Damien Fahey and former host Carson Daly will oversee its swan song, a special dubbed Total Finale Live, which is set to air on MTV at 8pm ET/PT.

On Tuesday (November 11), MTV revealed that Justin Timberlake, Kid Rock, Snoop Dogg, Nelly and JC Chasez will be joining previously announced guests 50 Cent, Fall Out Boy, Ludacris, the Backstreet Boys and Beyoncé at the Times Square studios to commemorate the show's momentous conclusion.

Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and Christina Aguilera will also be part of the big show, appearing via satellite to say a few words and share some of their favorite TRL memories. It will be Barker's first appearance on MTV since surviving a plane crash in late September that killed four people.

Ludacris, Snoop and Nelly will be sharing the stage for a one-time-only collaboration, adding another big moment to the long list of hot performances that have taken place in the TRL studios over the years. Others expected to appear during the TRL farewell show include Diddy, Mariah Carey, Taylor Swift, Hilary Duff, Good Charlotte's Benji and Joel Madden, Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit and Korn frontman Jonathan Davis.

In addition, TRL will be bringing back its former hosts and VJs for their last stand, including Lyndsey Rodrigues, Vanessa Minnillo, Dave Holmes, Jesse Camp, Hilarie Burton, La La Vasquez and Quddus.
