Justin Timberlake has been having a pretty successful 2013 so far, between the release of The 20/20 Experience and the latest news that he is set to receive an award named for one of his idols.

Jimmy Fallon has been confirmed to present his buddy Timberlake with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at this weekend’s MTV Video Music Awards.

The award will be presented at Sunday's ceremony in recognition of his extensive success in both music and in videos such as “Mirrors,” “Sexy Back,” and "Cry Me A River," just to name a few.

Timberlake will perform on the show, and while rumors of an NSYNC reunion persist, nothing has been confirmed just yet.

The 2013 MTV Video Music Awards airs Sunday at 9:00 PM ET on MTV.
