Celebs wave ta-ta to 'Total Request Live'

Carson Daly chatted with Eminem, Beyoncé gave a showstopping performance, fans shrieked at the sight of Justin Timberlake, and hundreds lined up in Times Square for a glimpse of superstars on Sunday.

For a few hours, it seemed like old times at MTV's Total Request Live, back when the show was a kingmaker of pop-music personalities. MTV pulled the plug on the 10-year-old franchise after years of declining ratings, but not before marking the occasion with celebration and nostalgia.

"I feel like they're kinda tearin' down my home," Eminem said via phone to Mr. Daly, TRL's host from 1998 until 2002. "It's a big loss, not having this as a platform to promote our music," 50 Cent said.
