Justin Bieber and Stephen Baldwin are showing nothing but love for each other in the Wolverine State ... proving in-laws CAN get along.

The Biebs and Stephen spent Monday in Grand Rapids, Michigan where the future father/son-in-law duo hit up a music festival. On their way back to the hotel, they had a touching moment -- placing their arms around each other. That oughta put a smile on Hailey's face.

BTW ... Hailey's giving her guys some dude time because she's busy at New York Fashion Week. She's kind of a big deal there.

Justin went to one of the couture events last week with her ... helping create one of the most epic photos ever sitting elbow-to-elbow with LeBron James, Whoopi Goldberg and Ben Simmons to name a few.

As we first reported, Justin and Hailey are engaged, but in no hurry to get married. We're told they're thinking about tying the knot sometime next year ... they're in no rush.

9/11 3:20 PM PT -- TMZ has learned the case is now officially closed.

Mac Miller's death is forcing the L.A. City Attorney to complete a legal formality ... letting him off the hook in his DUI case.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the City Attorney's Office will officially drop the charges against Mac. He was supposed to be arraigned Tuesday in an L.A. courtroom, but we're told it's been taken off the docket and official paperwork will soon be filed.

TMZ broke the story ... Mac was arrested in May after smashing his G-Wagon into a utility pole in the San Fernando Valley. He walked away from the accident, but cops arrested him later after tracking him down at his home.

Video of the aftermath showed just how bad the crash was, but Mac wasn't seriously hurt.

As we reported, Mac ended up blowing twice the legal limit.

T.I. is so high on Cynthia Nixon's political platform -- at least the marijuana parts of it -- and vows she's got his vote for governor, even though he doesn't know who she is ... and can't possibly vote for her.

The rapper shouted out the NY gubernatorial candidate for her stance on legalizing marijuana -- in fact, he called her "brilliant." However, he also added ... he doesn't have a clue who she is. Guess Tip isn't binge-watching "Sex and the City."

Basically, Cynthia says it's important to legalize Mary J in NY because it's a multi-billion dollar industry -- that's a lot of GREEN -- and because blacks and latinos have historically been penalized for toking up more than whites.

T.I. can't vote Cynthia for New York governor -- he lives in Georgia, where ganja is still against the law -- but she made the most of it ... introducing herself and asking him to spread the stoner word.

Nicki Minaj straight-up said, if Cardi B does to others like she did to Nicki, she's gonna get killed.

Nicki appeared on Queen Radio Monday in the wake of Cardi B's attack Friday at New York Fashion Week, and said, "You put your hands on certain people you gon die. PERIOD. And y'all sitting here making this s*** a joke? I'm not the bitches in the strip club and I'm not a bitch on a reality show. My money is very f***ing long."

Short story ... Nicki thinks other people would have been far more aggressive than her if Cardi B zeroed in on them the same way she did Nicki.

Nicki also says she was mortified by Cardi B's attack this weekend, and insists she never spoke ill of baby Kulture ... despite Cardi's claim. She clarified she has never and would never talk smack about someone else's parenting skills or child.

We broke the story ... Cardi confronted Nicki at the Harper's Bazaar party in NYC to "address the lies Nicki was spreading," saying Nicki questioned her fitness as a mother.

Cardi tried attacking Nicki but was thwarted by security ... then chucked her shoe in Nicki's direction. CB was the one who walked away -- sans one shoe -- with a knot above her eye.

The "I Like It" rapper later went on social media to call out Nicki, saying ... "I've let a lot of s*** slide! I let you sneak diss me, I let you lie on me ... But when you mention my child, you choose to like comments about me as a mother, make comments about my abilities to take care of my daughter is when all bets are f***in off!!" Cardi doesn't specify what comments Nicki made or liked.

Young Thug's got a pair of handcuffs in his future -- there's a new warrant out for his arrest in Georgia ... TMZ has learned.

The grand jury warrant was issued in DeKalb County after Thug was indicted on a slew of drug possession charges ... according to our law enforcement sources. We broke the story, the grand jury rung him up last week on a total of 8 FELONIES!

YT was charged with possession and intent to distribute meth, hydrocodone and weed. He's also charged with possession of amphetamine, Alprazolam, codeine (2 counts) and a firearm.

The felony charges stem from Young Thug's arrest last September, when cops pulled him over for tinted windows ... but ended up nailing him for marijuana possession.

Wiz Khalifa seems to have the solution for the Pittsburgh Steelers' early season woes ... PAY LE'VEON BELL!!

We got the rapper -- who's a huge Pittsburgh sports fan (remember "Black and Yellow"!?) -- leaving Penthouse when we asked him what's up with the Steelers TYING the sorry Browns??

That's when Wiz told us he ain't worried about that game ... but his squad DOES need to give Le'Veon what he deserves so he can get back on the field.

"We gotta pay him that cash, man," Wiz tells TMZ Sports. "We need to pay the man!"

Tekashi69 busted a quick about-face ... declaring he's Team Nicki Minaj a day after he was caught on video turning up to Nicki's bitter rival, Cardi B.

We got Tekashi and Nicki leaving Open Ceremony's New York Fashion Week show at (Le) Poisson Rouge Sunday night where they were arm-in-arm. They were surrounded by security as tons of fans swarmed them on their way out.

Seems like Tekashi ran back to the hand that was feeding him and was trying to earn brownie points ... 'cause the night before he was at a joint where the DJ straight-up said, "I'm Sorry, Nicki. I'm Team Cardi B" and started blaring "Bodak Yellow" ... with Tekashi feeling the beat.

But check out the vid ... Tekashi's back on Nicki's side, which is where you think he'd be the entire time given she was featured on his super popular track "FEFE." That music video alone has over 279 mil views.

As you know ... Nicki and Cardi's feud went to another level Friday night when Cardi came at her and threw a shoe in her direction at the Harper's Bazaar bash. Nicki didn't flinch.

Halsey is determined to keep her man, G-Eazy, out of harm's way.

We got Halsey Sunday at LAX ... and she tells us she's looking out for G-Eazy in the wake of Mac Miller's apparent OD.

Halsey say it's natural to feel weird talking about your problems, so it’s important to find friends who will listen -- and she’s got that kind of relationship with her bf.

The topic hits close to home for Halsey … she posted a heartfelt tribute to Mac after he was found dead Friday in his San Fernando Valley home.

And ... Halsey was with G-Eazy when he was busted in May for assault and cocaine possession in Sweden.

Gun-toting thugs invaded Post Malone's home -- or so they thought -- attacking one person while shouting for the rapper, but the problem is ... Post doesn't live there anymore.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... 3 male suspects smashed a front window a little after midnight on September 1 and entered the San Fernando Valley house. We're told a resident living there was pistol whipped.

We're told one of the 3 men yelled, "Where's Post Malone?!" ... before stealing a bunch of cash, jewelry and cell phones ... about $20k worth. The barking out of Post's name makes it clear they were targeting him, but it's been months since he lived there.

We're told the people living there now have no connection to Post.

And, get this ... cops are trying to determine if the hit is tied to another celebrity home invasion just hours later. TMZ broke the story ... suspects stole a safe from a home where Rae Sremmurd was staying.

Both home invasions came after a busy couple weeks for thieves in the same area. Wiz Khalifa, Bella Thorne, Christina Milian, Yasiel Puig and John Mayer have all been victims of burglaries or attempted burglaries.

John Legend just joined a group of elite performers ... with a Tony, Oscar, Grammy and now an Emmy award to his name.

Legend completed the accomplishment Sunday night when he took home an award for Outstanding Variety Special (Live) for his work on Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert. Legend joins Whoopi Goldberg and Mel Brooks as EGOT winners and is the first African American man to do so.

As for a breakdown of John's other awards ...

Tony -- 2017 for Best Revival of A Play for his work on Jitney

Oscar -- 2015 Best Original Song for "Glory"

Grammy -- Legend has 10

Congrats!

AJ McLean says Mac Miller's death was premature and tragic -- and he hopes more deaths can be prevented with a potentially life-saving measure he'll be rolling out soon.

We got the Backstreet Boys member in Bev Hills where he was participating in the Ante Up! for a Cancer Free Generation poker tournament -- which raises money for cancer research -- and he gave us his thoughts on Mac dying Friday from an apparent overdose.

While he's never met Mac himself, it's clear AJ's shaken up over his passing -- explaining people need to realize how big an issue drug addiction really is ... and how to overcome it.

He then tells us about a new detox kit he's working on that he says will help people kick drugs safely ... particularly, opioids. AJ says his kit includes non-narcotic medication -- unlike other drugs often used in opioid treatment, like methadone -- that won't get 'em hooked.

Post Malone has jumped back on the horse -- in this case the Rolls -- just a day after his other Rolls got T-boned.

Post chowed down at Mastro's Saturday in Bev Hills and showed off his bigger and better whip -- a $420k Phantom that resembles a WWII tank.

Post decided to upgrade after a Kia tore into his $320k Wraith Saturday night in the San Fernando Valley, severely damaging it.

Post had more to say about the tragic death of his buddy, Mac Miller. TMZ broke the story ... Mac died of a drug OD Friday. Post was supposed to do an album with Mac and his death really tore him up.

On another subject -- the epic shoe-down between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj Friday night at a NYC Fashion Week party -- Post is strictly Switzerland.

Beyonce and Jay-Z are still in the midst of celebrating the singer's birthday ... squeezing in some time for a private photo shoot too.

The pair hit the beach on the Italian island of Sardinia Saturday for a boat tour followed by some cute couple pics shot by a private photog. It's no secret, Jay is crazy about his wife ... and the photo shoot proves it.

Beyonce turned 37 last week, and the pair has been in Italy celebrating -- seemingly sans kids -- ever since.

The singer posted a message Thursday recapping 36 and sharing her hopes for the year ahead, saying, "I became a new mother of 3. I breastfed twins. I renewed my vows with my husband of ten years. I came back home to the stage to do Coachella, after pregnancy. Then my husband and I released our album together, Everything Is Love."

Rich the Kid has apparently decided New York City's economy needs a shot in the arm, because dude boarded a plane bound for the Big Apple with $100k cash!!!

We got Rich Sunday at 5:30 AM at LAX and he flaunted his stacks for TMZ. Rich is on his way to New York Fashion Week ... he was mum on what he's gonna do with the stash.

And, check this out ... we did a little digging, and there's no limit to how much cash you can carry on a plane, but TSA can ask questions to make sure you're not up to no good.

Fact is ... the cash pales in comparison to the rapper's watch, which he says is worth $120k.

And, speaking of Rich showing off his riches, he might want to think about roaming the airport with all that loot, looking for snacks without his bodyguard anywhere in sight. He was robbed at gunpoint back in June by several guys who broke into his apartment.

Rich and his GF, Tori Brixx, were injured -- she was pistol whipped -- and both ended up in the hospital.

Drake's been taking some not-so-subtle jabs at Kanye West recently -- but if Ye follows through on his word to see a Drake show -- Drizzy won't turn him away.

Kanye went on Twitter earlier this week to apologize to Drake for leaving him off "Lift Yourself" ... adamantly denying he spilled the beans about Drake's secret son to Pusha T. Kanye's olive branch -- a promise to attend a Drake concert. Ye praised Drake, saying, "the images (from the show) look incredible online."

Our sources say Drake won't stop Kanye from attending and has made it clear to security ... Ye is not to be banned.

Our sources say Kanye hasn't reached out for tix -- and there's a very good chance he'll just buy his own -- but you gotta imagine, it'll be no secret if Ye is in the building.

As for the fans ... don't bank on any onstage Yeezy guest spots during the show.
