Justin Timberlake has changed his bad habits since his DWI arrest earlier this summer, but a source exclusively tells In Touch the pop star — who is desperately trying to get back on wife Jessica Biel‘s good side — is hating every bit of his new health routine.

The “Cry Me a River” singer, 43, had fans worried after he was arrested on June 18 for allegedly driving while intoxicated in Sag Harbor, New York. Making matters worse, he seemed to make light of the incident during his Boston concert at TD Garden, saying to the crowd, “So uh, is there anyone here tonight that is driving and … no I’m just kidding.”

But there is one person who doesn’t find any of this funny. “Part of Justin’s mea culpa to Jessica was to admit that he’d gotten into some bad habits and that he needs to dial everything way back,” says a source.

“He was busted with a vape pen, which is a big worry because of the affect it can have on his lungs,” the insider adds. “So he’s now agreed to totally ditch that for good, and he’s gone pretty much cold turkey on the booze, too.”

Still, he’s not completely dry, the source reveals. “He’ll have the occasional glass of wine at dinner or on special occasions, but for the most part he’s committed to a very clean life, and it’s not been easy. He’s admitted to his friends that it’s very boring because there’s nothing to take the edge off, especially when he’s out on the road.”

The ‘NSync member has been under stress amid his Forget Tomorrow world tour, which began on April 29 in Vancouver and is scheduled to conclude on December 20.

On top of his demanding performance schedule and recent arrest, his driver’s license was suspended by a judge during a court hearing in his DWI case held earlier this month.

On August 2, Justin appeared in court remotely via Zoom from Antwerp, Belgium, as he’s currently on tour in Europe, and entered a not guilty plea on the DWI charges.

Not only did Justin lose his driving privileges for the time being, his attorney, Edward Burke Jr., was reprimanded by Sag Harbor Justice Carl Irace for “irresponsible” comments he made at the last court hearing, adding that it “comes off as an attempt to poison the case before it even begins.” The judge stated, “Think about the law … before making comments.”

While it is unclear how long the “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” singer’s license will be suspended for, the next hearing in the case is scheduled for September 13, though Justin will not be required to appear in person.

According to In Touch‘s source, the singer is blowing of steam by “trying his best to sweat it out in the gym when he’s feeling antsy.”

The insider adds, “He’s still got his computer games to zone out with, but as far as vices go, they’re all gone — and, as anyone knows, it can a big adjustment period. But he’s promised his wife to clean up his act, and he’s sticking to it, no matter how tough it gets.”

One need only look at the reaction to Jack Draper’s controversial ‘double hit’ winner on match point in Cincinnati last week to see how tennis players love a social media row.

So when the much more serious news of world No1 Jannik Sinner’s double doping violation and subsequent exoneration broke on Tuesday it did not take long for the usual suspects to air their views.

Nick Kyrgios, who else, led the charge: ‘Ridiculous – whether it was accidental or planned. You get tested twice with a banned (steroid) substance… you should be gone for 2 years. Your performance was enhanced. Massage cream…. Yeah nice.’

Britain’s Liam Broady said: ‘Whether Sinner was doping or not. This is not right. Plenty of players go through the same thing and have to wait months or YEARS for their innocence to be declared. Not a good look.’

Japanese player Taro Daniel said: ‘This is clearly strange. Even if it was not intentional, the moment a player tests positive, they should be suspended for six months. The fact that there was no suspension, but this announcement came four months later, and they continued to compete in the tournament in the meantime, is all different from the previous protocols. Politics.’

News of Jannik Sinner’s double doping violation rocked the tennis world to its very core

Nick Kyrgios was one of many tennis pros who took umbrage with Sinner’s lack of punishment

Denis Shapovalov simply said: ‘Different rules for different players.’

The spectre at the feast here is Simona Halep, whose anti-doping case followed a very different trajectory. The former Wimbledon champion was provisionally suspended in October 2022 and almost one year later banned for four years. She appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and this March her ban was reduced. We are still awaiting the reasons for that ruling.

Compared to that tangled web, the Sinner case has been presented to us tied up neatly with a bow.

The fact which shocked many players and fans is that we were told nothing about the two failed tests until today, after Sinner had been exonerated. The reason is that players are granted anonymity if they successfully appeal the provisional ban, as Sinner did.

But why did Halep’s case take almost a year to resolve while Sinner’s was wrapped up within four months, just in time for the US Open?

Mail Sport put this question to the International Tennis Integrity Agency and we were told simply that Halep’s was a far more complex case, and so took longer to investigate.

The accusation from players, generally, is that Sinner received preferential treatment as a top player and poster boy for the sport. That is an easy narrative but it is instructive to refer to the case of Marco Bortolotti, an obscure Italian doubles player.

Simona Halep’s anti-doping case took significantly longer to be resolved than Sinner’s did

Mail Sport was told Halep’s case was more complex and needed more time to investigate

Some players have come out swinging and believe Sinner has received preferential treatment

In February of this year Bortolotti was charged with a doping violation for clostebol but after he provided an explanation of involuntary contamination, there was no provisional suspension, no announcement and one month later he was cleared – so here, at least, the world No 87 doubles player seems to have been treated no differently to the singles No 1.

What is clear is that tennis has a fight on its hands to convince players and fans that the Integrity Unit has lived up to its name. But once players are coming out and publicly accusing the authorities of bias in favour of higher-ranked stars, perhaps that battle has already been lost.

What’s going on with Taylor Swift?

Taylor Swift’s bad luck: Had to cancel show due to terrorism, threw party for crew but was criticized for being insensitive and silent

While reaping a series of unprecedented achievements with the “super tour” The Eras Tour , suddenly when arriving in Europe, Taylor Swift suddenly faced a series of bad luck. She is receiving a lot of criticism for being considered insensitive to the scandals surrounding her.

Taylor Swift suddenly encountered a series of “disasters” when bringing The Eras Tour to Europe

Canceled all 3 shows in Austria due to terrorist attack threat

Recently, the music community was shocked to learn that Taylor Swift’s three shows on The Eras Tour at the Ernst Happel Stadion (Vienna, Austria) were canceled when a terrorist attack plan was revealed. Taylor Swift’s three shows from August 8-10 in Vienna were immediately stopped when authorities discovered a terrorist plot targeting the concerts.

Taylor Swift’s 3 shows in Vienna canceled due to terrorism concerns

The head of Austria’s State Security and Intelligence Service, Omar Haijawi-Pirchner, said the main suspect wanted to use knives or homemade explosives to attack Taylor Swift fans outside the stadium in order to cause a mass casualty event at the concerts.

Taylor Swift’s team suffered a huge loss when they had to refund all ticket prices to fans.

If the Eras Tour shows in Austria were to take place, each show would attract around 65,000 spectators, not to mention the 15,000 spectators standing outside the stadium each night. Taylor Swift’s three shows in Vienna, if they were to take place, could attract around 240,000 spectators, further demonstrating the seriousness of the incident if the terrorist attack actually occurred.

Fans gathered in the streets to comfort each other and sing Taylor’s songs.

Taylor Swift’s crew also suffered a significant loss when they had to refund all tickets that had been sold to buyers within 10 working days. A source close to the production team of The Eras Tour confirmed to Variety that the average revenue of a show is around 14 – 17 million USD, meaning that Taylor Swift earned between 353 – 429 billion VND per show. This means that Taylor Swift’s 3 canceled shows in Vienna could cause the crew to lose up to 51 million USD.

Fans divided, criticizing female singer for being insensitive, going to bars until 3am

A week after the announcement of the cancellation of the show in Austria, Taylor Swift has not made any official statement. This has disappointed many netizens. Under the organizer’s post, dozens of people questioned the reason for the Fortnight singer ‘s silence, even criticizing her.

“The Snake King” has yet to comment on the incident in Vienna.

Some fans have criticized their idol for his indifferent attitude towards those who spent time and money to see the show but did not get what they wanted. Not stopping there, according to information collected by The Sun, after arriving in the British capital on August 12, Taylor rented the entire Annabel’s for the night of the same day, plus 6 52-seat buses to transport staff.

Taylor Swift decided to throw a party for the Eras Tour staff to thank the crew before starting the last 5 shows of the European leg in the UK on August 15-20. The source added that after canceling the shows in Vienna, Taylor wanted to give back to the people who worked for her. The beauty born in 1989 wanted to raise the morale of all the staff during this difficult time.

Female singer throws party for crew while remaining silent, causing mixed reactions from fans

After a period of silence since the decision to cancel the show, the female singer born in 1989 was discovered leaving the luxurious members-only club Annabel’s in London (UK) at 3 pm on August 12 (local time) with a trendy outfit from the Fall Winter 2024/25 collection of British brand Vivienne Westwood, making fans feel even more indignant.

However, some fans also spoke up to defend her. Given the danger of the terrorist group IS and serious incidents such as terrorism, fans said that Taylor could not make a statement arbitrarily, but instead had to carefully consult with her PR team and the authorities.

The pain of the murdered young fan has not subsided…

Earlier in late July, armed police and medical staff immediately appeared at a dance school in the town of Southport, Merseyside (UK) immediately after receiving news that a knife-wielding attacker had attacked many people there. This event shocked the world media when the victims were all very young children! It is known that this was a workshop with activities such as singing, dancing, yoga, making bracelets… on the theme of Taylor Swift and had about 25 children between the ages of 6 and 11 participating. The time of the horrific incident was at 11:47 – just a few minutes before the program ended.

Taylor Swift was devastated when she heard the news

Two children died in the attack. Nine others were injured, six of whom are in a critical condition. Two adults were also injured while trying to protect the children. Merseyside Police Chief Constable Ackman added: “Nine other children were injured , six of whom are in a critical condition. All of those injured were stabbed during the attack, and two adults are in a critical condition after being injured in the incident.

A 17-year-old boy from Banks in Lancashire, originally from Cardiff, has been arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder. He has been taken to a police station where he will be interviewed by detectives.”

Scene of the massacre

Taylor Swift, in response to the heartbreaking tragedy, painfully wrote on her Instagram story: “Yesterday’s horrific events in Southport have haunted me to the core… The loss of life, the innocent people who have suffered such terrible tragedies, both for their loved ones and those left behind. They were just very young children, attending a dance class! I am completely devastated, my thoughts are with the family at this time…”

Taylor Swift hires anti-terrorism team for next concert

After the terrorist threat in Austria, in preparation for The Eras Tour in the UK, Taylor Swift and her team have tightened security in this area to prevent the worst case scenario and protect the safety of fans. TMZ reported on August 11 that The Eras Tour organizers have increased their prevention of terrorist threats targeting concerts at Wembley Stadium, London from August 15-20.

According to the program announcement, the local police department will coordinate with the Safety Advisory Group (SAG) and relevant agencies “to ensure the highest level of security standards.”

Fans have begun arriving at Wembley, England.

The site reports that Taylor Swift has partnered with FGH Security, a private counter-terrorism firm. Ben Knott, the firm’s CEO, told TMZ that his services often monitor areas outside events, especially crowded areas, to look for suspicious individuals. Swift has previously hired snipers for security, so it’s not hard to imagine her adding another layer of security and counter-terrorism to keep fans safe at her shows in the UK.

Her team from the same city has increased security for upcoming shows.

The management also does not allow spectators to stand outside the entrance or on the Olympic Steps in front of the stadium. Anyone who violates the rules will be asked to move by the authorities. The organizers also stopped outdoor music activities.

Compared to other areas in Europe, Wembley is considered one of the safest venues in terms of anti-riot measures, with the authorities having put in place many high-level security measures. However, the news site said that the organizers should be concerned about the fans standing outside the stadium. They are fans who do not have tickets but still want to hear Taylor perform live. In late July, thousands of people packed a hill in Munich to “take a peek” at the stage inside.

Fans often gather to exchange bracelets, sing, get to know each other,… every show.

Her fans in Munich went up the hill opposite the stadium to watch the show because they didn’t have tickets.

One of the hallmarks of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour stops  is for fans who couldn’t get tickets to gather outside the stadium and jam to the music inside. However, that practice has been halted due to concerns over terrorist threats.

Taylor Swift seems to love when her fans support the Chiefs.

One Swiftie is going viral for the outfit she wore to Monday’s Eras Tour show in London, where she sported a special nod to Travis Kelce that even got a stamp of approval from the “Fortnight” songstress herself.

Concert attendee Andrea Walker was wearing a Kansas City Chiefs Hat during the concert at Wembley Stadium on Monday, Aug. 19, when Swift, 34, happened to notice the Chiefs merch in honor of her football superstar boyfriend.

Walker, who was sporting the Swift-inspired Super Bowl LVIII edition Chiefs hat embroidered with hearts and a friendship bracelet design, shared a TikTok video of the priceless moment when Swift, 34, noticed the hat while in the middle of performing “You Belong With Me,” during the Fearless era.

After spotting Walker’s hat, Swift pointed to her head and gave an approving thumbs up.

“I thought she might like my hat choice,” Walker wrote along with the clip, which now has over 17.5K likes on TikTok.

“Not only did she see you; but she SAW 👀 you! She locked in,” one commenter wrote on the post, while another user said, “I’d die dead right there!! ❤️.”

“I have that hat too. it’s so much better now knowing Taylor likes it 😂” someone else joked.

Another comment read, “You win 🥰 I would have passed out right there dead 🤣🤣🤣🤣.”

“It’s still nuts to me that she actually looks at the crowd individually and sees what people are wearing. What an unforgettable moment for you! 👑.”

The video, which later began circling on X (formerly Twitter) as well, garnered attention from Walker’s sister, Natalie, who wrote online that the two siblings were “freaking out,” after the unforgettable moment.

“I would have cried! This is such a core memory!!!! 🥰” another user in the comments on TikTok.

“I would put this on my resume,” someone else quipped.

The tennis ace first purchased in the celebrity-filled Summit neighborhood for $6.68 million

A five-bedroom Los Angeles home owned by tennis legend Serena Williams has come on the market for $7.49 million, a little more than three years after she purchased the newly built property for $6.68 million.

The three-story Spanish-style home is located on a quarter acre of land in the gated Summit Estates section of Beverly Hills, an area known for a rotating cast of celebrity residents, which has reportedly included Gwen Stefani and Britney Spears.

The home is well set up for entertaining and features multiple sitting rooms with fireplaces on the main level, as well as a spacious open kitchen that extends out onto the veranda, and into the backyard, which includes a small pool, according to listing photos. On the lower level, in addition to the gym and laundry room, there’s a lounge and entertaining room with a full bar and wine cellar.

On the upper level, there’s a primary bedroom with a fireplace, balcony and two walk-in closets, as well as a primary bath featuring his and hers sinks and a deep soaking tub.

Ms. Williams, 39, has not made significant renovations to the property since her initial purchase, according to Gregory Piechota of Compass, who is jointly listing the property with Amit Lalji of Keller Williams Beverly Hills. (Representatives for Ms. Williams did not immediately respond to requests for comment.)

The 6,000-square-foot home was built by developer Ario Fakheri, and was purchased by Williams shortly after the birth of her daughter with husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in the fall of 2017, Mansion Global previously reported.

In 2019, Ms. Williams sold off a Bel-Air property for $8.1 million, after purchasing for $6.62 million in 2006, listing it for $12 million in 2017, and later dropping the asking price to $9.95 million.

The tennis superstar, who has won a record 23 Grand Slam singles titles over the course of her career, is also making moves on the other side of the country, and in January, sold off a five-bedroom mansion in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida for $2.775 million.

Andy Murray celebrated the retirement from his illustrious career with a party at his £5million mansion in Surrey.

Wimbledon icon Tim Henman reportedly joined the Scot at the residence, where he lives with his wife Kim and their four children.

The news comes after just two weeks since Murray’s glittering career came to an end after his and Dan Evans’ exit from the Paris Olympics doubles at the quarter-final stage.

The two-time Wimbledon champion made the announcement on social media in July upon as he arriving in the French capital ahead of the Games.

Despite the regret among fans over not being able to see him play again, the British tennis legend is enjoying his retirement with a party at his £5 million mansion, according to Express.

Tim Henman (right) was among the few people invited to the exclusive party and confirmed Murray thinks it was the right time to retire

Team GB stars Murray and Evans were eliminated from Olympics after their defeat against USA duo Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz at Roland Garros.

However, after their stunning performances and sensational comeback wins, which led them to the quarter-finals, many fans doubted whether Murray regretted his decision.

However, it seems that the tennis icon is making the most of his well-deserved retirement.

Speaking to Express, Tim Henman – who was one of the few invited – confirmed that the athlete is happy after hanging up his racket.

“I actually saw him on Friday, he had a sort of a retirement bash for about 30 people at his house with Kim and his family,”

“He was in great form there and I think he appreciates that this is absolutely the right time for him to stop.

“He’s overcome so many challenges physically over the last few years and hopefully now, there’s a time for him to reflect a little bit and look back on what a phenomenal career he’s had, the achievements and tournaments he won, everything that goes with it.

Injuries, specifically hip and ankle problems, have always plagued Murray and have emerged as one of the main reasons for his decision to retire from professional tennis.

Despite managing to join Evans in the Olympics for a journey to a medal, he withdrew from Wimbledon men’s singles due to physical issues.

Previously speaking to Sky Sports, Murray confirmed he is ‘ultimately happy’ with his decision to hang up his racket

Previously speaking to Sky Sports, the legendary athlete expressed his delight after retiring following the Olympics’ exit: ‘I guess it’s just nice to have that sort of closure also for me to get to an Olympics as well.

‘It was sad leaving the court for the last time but happy, ultimately I am glad I got to finish my career on my own terms, on court, in front of a brilliant crowd.’

Harry’s concerns on the threshold of 40: The desire to return home and the desire to be admired like his brother William

Prince Harry is “deeply” missing his old life in Britain and wants to be admired like William and Kate, a close friend has said, as the Duke of Sussex prepares to celebrate his 40th birthday next month.

Nostalgia for England and the Desire to Be Admired

Prince Harry “terribly” misses his old life in the UK and longs for the admiration he feels for William and Kate, according to a long-time friend. “He’s angry. It’s not working out the way he wanted it to. I think he desperately misses being here [in the UK] and wants more admiration,” The Times quoted him as saying. “Anyone who knows him feels he would have preferred to be at the top here with the love he has for William and Kate.”

These thoughts were revealed in the context that Prince Sussex will celebrate his 40th birthday on September 15, which is expected to be held in the US.

Harry is said to be at a “turning point” after having “achieved what he wanted” when he stepped down as a royal in 2020.

A former aide added: “He loves the military and does a great job there. The work with Invictus is great and being a father is the role he wants most, so maybe those are enough for him. But everything else is a bit of a blur.”

Unity and support in relationships

Meghan Markle took the opportunity to praise Prince Harry while speaking at a women’s event in Colombia. Praising her husband for being a supportive partner, the duchess said: “We work incredibly well together as a team, but as my husband is a great example of, the role of men in empowering women, letting them know that their voices are heard, from a young age right through to adulthood, is key. For us and the work of the Archewell Foundation, it’s definitely about making sure that young girls feel like their voices are heard.”

Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios believes it is ‘ridiculous’ Jannik Sinner escaped a ban for failing two anti-doping tests.

Sinner tested positive for the banned anabolic steroid clostebol during the Indian Wells tournament on March 10 and then again just eight days later.

The Italian was provisionally suspended but successfully appealed and was eligible to keep playing on the ATP tour while the International Tennis Integrity unit assessed all the evidence.

Sinner’s explanation for the banned substance entering his system was due to his physio Umberto Ferrara using a spray that contained clostebol to treat a wound on the tennis star’s finger.

The 23-year-old’s team explained Ferrara had purchased the spray in Italy, one of the few countries that allows people to purchase products containing clostebol over-the-counter.

Nick Kyrgios was not happy that Sinner escaped suspension after failing two drug tests

Sinner was tested during Indian Wells and tested positive for the banned substance clostebol

Nick Kyrgios took aim at Sinner on social media and called for the Italian to be suspended

However, Kyrgios was not buying the explanation and called for Sinner to be suspended.

‘Ridiculous – whether it was accidental or planned,’ Kyrgios wrote on X.

‘You get tested twice with a banned (steroid) substance… you should be gone for 2 years.

‘Your performance was enhanced. Massage cream…. Yeah nice’.

The news of Sinner’s failed tests was announced on Tuesday by the International Tennis Integrity unit, who declared Sinner was at ‘no fault or negligence’.

However, Sinner was docked 400 ranking points as well as $250,000 dollars, the amount of ranking points and prize money he earned at Indian Wells.

The investigation found Sinner had a miniscule amount of clostebol in his system, equivalent to less than a billionth of a gram.

‘There is no suggestion the tiny concentration in his system would have had any performance enhancing effect,’ the tribunal said.

News of the Italian tennis star’s failed tests came just days after he won the Cincinnati Open

Sinner now turns his focus to the US Open as he looks to win his second grand slam this year

In a statement, Sinner said: ‘I will now put this very challenging and hugely unfortunate period behind me. I will continue to do everything I can to ensure I continue to comply with the ITIA’s anti-doping programme and I have a team around me that are meticulous in their own compliance.’

Sinner’s attention now turns towards the US Open, which commences on August 26.

Kris Posted An Unedited Pic Of Herself And Kim, Then Quickly Deleted It

The KarJenners have their social media strategy down pat. As some of the most-followed celebs in the world, they’ve become experts at posing for pics, editing them to perfection, and penning flawless captions. They’re always on their social media A-game, which is exactly why fans were shocked when Kris Jenner accidentally posted an unedited photo of her family. The momager quickly realized what she’d done and took the photo down, but not before fans caught a screenshot the original.

The photo in question was shared on Chicago West’s 4th birthday, and included a slew of adorable photos with the birthday girl. The corresponding caption was equally as sweet. “Happy birthday to my beautiful granddaughter Chicago!!!!” Jenner wrote. “You have the sweetest spirit and always have the cutest little smile on your face with the softest little voice and your precious laughter lights up wherever you are!”

Jenner added that Chicago is “an amazing sister, daughter, granddaughter, cousin and niece,” and that she brings “so much joy and happiness every single day” to the family. What she didn’t realize? One of the photos in her slideshow was completely unfiltered. While it’s of course no big deal to post an unfiltered photo, it was pretty surprising considering how much the Kardashians love their filters. Fans were quick to screenshot the photo and share it to the Keeping Up with the Kardashians Reddit.

Instagram

The KarJenners still looked beautiful, but fans were surprised to see the unfiltered pic hit the internet. As it turns out, Jenner ended up taking the post down soon after and replacing it with a different one, suggesting she probably uploaded the pic by mistake.

“Omg she took this down! It’s not posted anymore,” one person commented below the new post. “She reposted the birthday post without that pic lol,” another said.

The post arrived just days after Khloé Kardashian caught flack from fans for an apparent photoshop fail on a recent picture. Will the KarJenners stop editing their selfies anytime soon? Probably not. But they’ll be the first to admit they use image altering tools, so kudos for honesty. And through it all, you can bet fans will be watching like a hawk.

Breaking News: Taylor Swift Officially Endorsed Donald Trump as the Next President. This News came as a Shock to her Fans during Her Eras Tour in…

Donald Trump bizarrely and falsely claimed an endorsement from Taylor Swift on Sunday via a series of AI-generated images posted to his Truth Social account.

One of the images depicts a photoshopped picture of Swift dressed in an Uncle Sam-style outfit reminiscent of classic military recruitment posters, with text reading, “TAYLOR WANTS YOU TO VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP.”

Additionally, Trump shared a fake news article that falsely claimed Swift’s fans are “turning to Trump” following a recent terror plot targeting her concert in Vienna, Austria.

The collage of posts also featured AI-generated photos of women wearing “Swifties for Trump” t-shirts.

Trump captioned the collage with the words, “I accept!”

To be clear, Swift has not endorsed any candidate for president in the 2024 election. However, in the 2020 election she endorsed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

“The change we need most is to elect a president who recognizes that people of color deserve to feel safe and represented, that women deserve the right to choose what happens to their bodies, and that the LGBTQIA+ community deserves to be acknowledged and included,” she told V Magazine of her decision at the time.
