Punkd star, Justin Timberlake did more than just boost Saturday Night Lives ratings by 23 percent over the weekend, he also mocked Hugo Chavez and slammed Kanye West for his comment about Timberlakes new song, Suit & Tie. Keep reading for more details.

According to MTV, Saturday Night Lives rating shot up by 23 percent from the previous week when Justin Timberlake joined the five ! timers club accompanied by fellow five timers Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin, Tom Hanks, and Candice Bergen.

And Timberlake was a big hit when he embodied Elton John for a rendition of Candle in the Wind where he mocked Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez. In Timberlakes skit, he wore a blue bedazzled suit and sat at the piano singing his goodbye to Hugo saying he had great style and panache a man who liked to wear a sash. Then he went on to sing about how Hugo had called George Bush a devil, said he smelled like sulphur, and called him Mr. Dancer.

But the pinnacle of the nights performances came when Timberlake and Jay-Z hit the stage to perform JTs new single, Suit & Tie. And he hadnt forgotten Kanye Wests dig toward the song either. Nearly two weeks ago, Kanye voiced his opinion of the song during one of his concerts saying, Remind me whos the original superfly? I got love for Hov but I aint f*cking with that Suit & Tie. So during the performance, Timberlake slammed Kanye for his dig changing up the lyrics to say My hits so sick got rappers acting dramatic.
