NEW YORK, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- 50 Cent, Justin Timberlake and Beyonce were among the artists who turned out for the final taping of the music video show "TRL" in New York.

Fall Out Boy, Kid Rock, Ludacris, Snoop Dogg and Nelly also showed up for the MTV flagship show's 2,247th episode Sunday, The New York Times said. Hip-hop mogul Diddy, who is the show's most frequent guest, also dropped by for his 38th "TRL" taping.

The show reportedly had been canceled due to falling ratings, in part, because of the popularity of music and social networking Web sites.

"This is like a big high-school reunion in a way," the Times quoted Timberlake as telling former "TRL" host Carson Daly, who returned for the show's finale. "We kind of all grew up together."
