Justin Timberlake’s got Leo’s back.
The pop star and his wife Jessica Biel will host a Hillary Clinton fund-raiser on Tuesday — because pal Leonardo DiCaprio had a scheduling conflict, according to People.
Timberlake will host the event at his Los Angeles home while DiCaprio is in New York working on his climate change documentary, “Before the Flood.”
The “Sexy Back” singer and his actress wife were quick to pick up Leo's slack, moving the event to their home, a source told the mag.
A Clinton-boosting ticket to the Timberlake-Biel residence will cost $33,500 per person, according to Variety.
Only the first $2,700 per ticket will go directly to the Clinton war chest. The rest will flow into the coffers of the Democratic National Committee, as well as state and local campaigns.
The initial invite for the event, "A Conversation with Hillary," listed Tobey Maguire, Jennifer Aniston, Scooter Braun and Shonda Rhimes as co-hosts.
DiCaprio has been a huge supporter of the Democratic presidential nominee, and attended a past fundraiser in New York City at the home of megaproducer Harvey Weinstein.
“Before the Flood” — which features President Obama, Bill Clinton, Secretary of State John Kerry, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and Pope Francis — is set to premiere at the Toronto Film Festival on Sept. 9.
