Justin Bieber offers a rare glimpse inside his and wife Hailey's $26M Beverly Hills mansion

This week Justin Bieber gave his Instagram followers a peek inside the $26 million Beverly Hills mansion he shares with wife Hailey Bieber. On Friday the 31-year-old pop star shared a brief reel as he joined the 'slide city' internet challenge inspired by a lyric from his hit song Yukon. Justin was dressed in red basketball shorts and a white T-shirt as he slid across his hardwood kitchen floor in a pair of knit socks. While fans have been posting themselves gliding across the floor to his catchy track, off his latest album Swag, his video did not include music. Hailey, 28, made a cameo appearance as she was shown in the background wearing black leggings and a black pullover sweatshirt. The Biebers' abode boasts seven bedrooms and 10 bathrooms with heated floors, according to They bought the sprawling residence, which is located in an exclusive guard-gated community, in 2020. Per the real estate outlet, its original listing noted that it is situated 'in the middle of park-like grounds' stretching over 2.5 acres. Justin recently posted photos in the couple's pristine entryway, which is punctuated with a piano. The home also offers a spacious living room, dining room, theater room, and chef's kitchen. Windows throughout permit lots of natural light into the love nest, where they're raising their son Jack Blues, who turns one this month. Outside there is a swimming pool, tennis court, and outdoor rooms featuring a barbecue, pizza oven, and koi pond. Meanwhile, the master suite has dual closets and a sitting area. In addition to their Los Angeles home base, the husband and wife purchased a $16.6 million house in La Quinta in 2023, using it as a vacation home. And their real estate portfolio also includes a property in Ontario, Canada. Justin released his surprise seventh studio album, Swag to great fanfare on July 11. Several songs make mention of his public persona, personal struggles, and his commitment to his wife Hailey and their baby son. There is also a theme of interludes featuring comedian Druski, during which Justin engages in candid 'therapy sessions' with the social media star. Rumors have recently circulated that the music sensation will tour Australia following the album release. Justin has not yet confirmed whether he will be touring, nor has Frontier Touring, who told Rolling Stone it had no information on any potential Australian tour dates. The hitmaker previously cancelled his Justice world tour in 2022 for health reasons.

Rockies rally from nine-run hole, stun Pirates 17-16

August 2 - Brenton Doyle capped a five-run ninth inning with a two-run home run, and the Colorado Rockies rallied after giving up nine runs in the first to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 17-16 on Friday night in Denver. Hunter Goodman also went deep in the ninth, Warming Bernabel had four hits -- including a three-run home run and his first career triple -- and Ezequiel Tovar tied a franchise record with four doubles for Colorado. The Rockies trailed 16-12 entering the ninth but Goodman hit a one-out homer, his 20th of the year, to start the rally against Dennis Santana (3-3). Bernabel tripled to drive in Jordan Beck and then scored on Thairo Estrada's single. Doyle followed with the first walk-off homer of his career and his fourth hit of the game. He sent an 0-1 slider 406 feet to left-center. Dugan Darnell (1-0), who made his major league debut with a scoreless eighth and ninth innings, got the victory for Colorado. For the Pirates, Oneil Cruz hit a grand slam, Andrew McCutchen homered and finished with three hits and five RBIs, Nick Gonzales had four hits and Bryan Reynolds and Isiah Kiner-Falefa finished with three hits apiece. Joey Bart walked four times and was hit by a pitch for the Pirates, who had their five-game winning streak snapped. Pittsburgh built a 9-0 lead in the first on Reynolds' RBI single, Cruz's grand slam and a three-run shot by McCutchen, after Kiner-Falefa's RBI single chased starter Antonio Senzatela. Senzatela allowed seven runs on eight hits and two walks after getting just two outs. The Rockies chipped away, scoring once in the first and closing within 9-4 on Bernabel's three-run homer in the third off starter Andrew Heaney, his third of the season. The Pirates scored three times in the fourth and fifth innings to extend the lead to 15-6, but Colorado answered in its half of the fifth. Doyle walked, Kyle Farmer singled and Mickey Moniak, Tyler Freeman and Tovar followed with doubles off reliever Thomas Harrington to make it 15-10. The Pirates added another run in the sixth when Jimmy Herget hit Bart to drive in McCutchen. Yanquiel Fernandez's two-run homer in the eighth, the first of his career, pulled Colorado within 16-12. --Field Level Media
