Justin Timberlake and Pregnant Jessica Biel Update: New Music Contract Comes After Baby Bump? [RUMORS]

Time for another update in the lives of Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, who the tabloids insist is pregnant with her first child. Following weeks of baby bump reports, a new article highlights the importance of Justin's new music contract negotiations.

If Justin really is about to be a father (as so many media outlets have suggested), then the triple threat celeb is likely more focused on money than ever.

Unfortunately, Mr. Timberlake may be taking one heck of a pay cut. It's no surprise that in recent years, the music industry has taken a bit of a hit.

And now, some of music's biggest acts are facing a contract renewal. According to Billboard, the rules of the game have changed a lot since their last deals:

"Taylor Swift, Usher and Justin Timberlake are about to enter an all-too-familiar crossroads for pop superstars: Their next albums will also be the last ones due to their respective major labels (Big Machine/Universal for Swift, RCA for Timberlake and Usher)...But unlike the mega-stars of yore, today's top acts face a different marketplace in which they're required to work much harder for their hefty advances - with lower sales to show for it."

Of course, that's not the only big news in Justin's life.

For weeks now, entertainment websites and tabloids worldwide have been reporting that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are finally expecting their first child.

Though neither celeb has confirmed the reports, even E Online thinks Jessica could be pregnant:

"Jessica Biel is so statuesque it's hard to tell...But she just may be dressing for two these days...A couple of outlets have claimed to confirm that Biel is pregnant with her and Justin Timberlake's first child together-and multiple sources have told E! News the same, but reps for both stars have remained mum about the whole thing."

What do you think about the latest reports? Do you think Justin can still demand a large contract even in today's changing landscape? Is Jessica really pregnant?
