The diagnosis was shared in an depth feature about his health via the AARP. 

Within the piece, it was revealed that one of the ways Bennett is coping is by re-teaming with Lady Gaga to record a follow-up to their 2014 album ‘Cheek To Cheek.’

It arguably places the star – who turned 40 today – in a position of needing to mount a measured comeback effort with his next release.

Music formed a big part of Timberlake’s conversation on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and it appears he is looking to two of Hip-Hop’s most notable names to assist.
