JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE SELLS NYC PENTHOUSE: Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are selling their New York City penthouse for a lot less than they bargained for. According to Page Six, the apartment, in Manhattan’s Soho neighborhood, is in contract to be sold for $6.35 million, down from the original just-under-$8-million asking price earlier this year. The penthouse features three bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, a massive living room and a wraparound terrace. Meanwhile, Justin’s bruised vocal cords have forced him to cancel even more shows on his Man of the Woods tour. His concert in Portland, Oregon, last night, as well as his November 18th and 20th shows in Sacramento and Anaheim, have been pushed back to February.

JUSTIN BIEBER ISN’T RETURNING TO MUSIC YET: Justin Bieber has no plans to return to music just yet. Sources tell People the singer has scaled back on work in order to spend more time with his new wife, Hailey Baldwin, and figure out what he wants to do next. “He’s happy and content,” the source says. “He is in love with Hailey. She encourages him to do whatever he wants to do, and is encouraging him in this season of self-discovery.” Justin is apparently looking to make a positive contribution to the world. “He truly wants to make the world a better place, and he’s self-aware enough to know that some of his previous choices may not have accomplished that,” the source says. “So he’s working through it, which really should be applauded. It’s a very mature thing to do.”
