Justin Timberlake Sells Sprawling 127-Acre Property in Tennessee for $8 Million

The singer of “Mirrors” gave up ownership of the verdant plot of land just a few weeks before his conviction for DWI on June 18.

Officially, Justin Timberlake has bid farewell to a sizable tract of land in Tennessee.

The forty-three-year-old singer of “Mirrors” sold his approximately 127-acre Franklin, Tennessee, property for $8 million. According to the listing, it’s tucked away “less than half a mile” from the quiet community of Leipers Fork and about 45 minutes outside of Nashville.

Not only does the property provide breathtaking vistas of Leipers Creek Valley, but it also has 50 acres of pastures and wildlife food plots. On-site features include footpaths, spring creeks, and a fishing pond.

The listing was held by Tom Sullivan of Covey Rise Properties.

According to property documents, Timberlake legally relinquished ownership of the expansive site on May 30, while on his current Forget Tomorrow World Tour.

The Tennessean claims that the Memphis native bought the land in 2015 from local preservationist and philanthropist Aubrey Preston.

Preston told the site that he and the Grammy winner have a great deal of affection for their home state, nearly a year after Timberlake’s acquisition.

At the time, Preston remarked, “We both love Tennessee and loved growing up on land.” “We want to do our share to protect that for our children and future generations. We got to know one another in this way.

The transaction occurred just a few weeks prior to Timberlake’s June 18 arrest in Sag Harbor, New York, for allegedly driving under the influence.

He was stopped by a Sag Harbor policeman while traveling from the American Hotel to a friend’s house. Subsequently, the singer was issued two citations for failure to maintain lane integrity and one count of driving while intoxicated.

Although Timberlake’s arrest has sparked a frenzy among the public and his fans, a source tells PEOPLE that he and wife Jessica Biel are unconcerned about the event.

“They have put the arrest behind them. The insider stated, “They continue to put work and family first and have faith in their legal team.” Timberlake and the actress from The Better Sister are parents to two kids, Phineas, 4, and Silas, 9.

Hollywood Legend Dustin Hoffman’s Private Fight Against Cancer Revealed

Dustin Hoffman, who famously dressed in drag for *Tootsie* 30 years ago, used his acting skills to keep a serious secret: a battle with cancer that almost took his life.

In 2013, the *Rain Man* actor, then 75, revealed that he had quietly undergone treatment for throat cancer, which was “surgically cured.” After that, he never spoke about it publicly again. Here’s more about the Oscar-winning actor’s journey with cancer.

In 1967, at 30 years old, Dustin Hoffman had his breakthrough role in the romantic comedy *The Graduate*, which earned him his first Oscar nomination.

Over the years, Hoffman starred in iconic films like *All the President’s Men* (1976) and *Kramer vs. Kramer* (1979), which won him an Academy Award for Best Actor.

In 1983, Hoffman played a washed-up actor who dresses as a woman to get a role on a soap opera in the movie *Tootsie*, showcasing his incredible versatility.

\In the hit film *Tootsie*, Dustin Hoffman’s character was called a “nottie” instead of a “hottie,” which brought him to tears, he shared.

“If I were going to be a woman, I’d want to be as beautiful as possible. But they told me, ‘That’s as good as it gets,’” Hoffman recalled in an interview.

When he realized he wasn’t considered attractive as a woman, the now 86-year-old actor had a life-changing realization about how society views women.

“I went home and started crying,” Hoffman says. “I thought, ‘I’m an interesting woman,’ but I knew if I met that version of myself at a party, I wouldn’t talk to her because she didn’t meet the physical standards we’re taught women need to have for us to approach them.”

Even though *Tootsie* was the second-highest-grossing film of the year—just behind *E.T. The Extraterrestrial*—Dustin Hoffman didn’t find it funny.

“That was never a comedy for me,” he added.

Despite his feelings about the film, Hoffman became one of the most sought-after actors in Hollywood.

He earned his second Oscar for the 1988 film *Rain Man* and went on to win six Golden Globes and one Primetime Emmy.

In 2013, Hoffman, who had always been very active in his career, suddenly went quiet.

It was later revealed that his cancer had been detected early.

Just months after Dustin Hoffman made his directorial debut with the British comedy *Quartet* (2012) and finished filming *Chef* (2014) alongside Jon Favreau and Sofia Vergara, the reason for his absence became clear.

Hoffman’s publicist, Jodi Gottlieb, shared with *People* (through ABC News) that the beloved actor had been privately treated for cancer. She didn’t reveal many details but said, “It was detected early, and he has been surgically cured. Dustin is feeling great and is in good health.”

At 75, Hoffman underwent preventative treatments to reduce the chances of the cancer returning. While Gottlieb didn’t specify the type of cancer, it was widely believed to be throat cancer.

Even after the news, Hoffman’s career didn’t slow down. He lent his voice to Master Shifu in more *Kung Fu Panda* films (2008 to 2024) and acted in several other movies, including *Sam and Kate* in 2022 and the upcoming sci-fi drama *Megalopolis* in 2024. Hoffman, now 86, continues to remind us of his resilience and passion for acting.

In early March 2024, *Hello!* magazine reported that Dustin Hoffman and his wife, Lisa Gottsegen, were seen walking around London, showing some sweet moments of affection.

Hoffman, who married Gottsegen in 1980, added four children to his family, along with two children from his previous marriage to Anne Byrne.

The article noted, “The Hollywood legend looked much younger than his 86 years as he smiled and waved at the cameras. He appeared tanned and relaxed while strolling through the city and visiting shops with his wife of 43 years.”
