Rihanna Makes Sky-High Splash with New LA Penthouse
Los Angeles, CA – The queen of pop, Rihanna, is soaring to new heights – literally! The global sensation has just scored a jaw-dropping penthouse on the 40th floor of The Century, a swanky condo complex that’s the talk of the town. Rihanna’s real estate game is on fire, and this latest purchase is turning heads.
Already crowned the world’s wealthiest female musician with a staggering $1.4 billion in her treasure chest, Rihanna is no stranger to the property market. In 2014, she snapped up a sweet unit on the 27th floor of The Century for $5.45 million. Fast forward to March this year, and she’s dropping a cool $21 million for this extravagant penthouse.

Now, you might be wondering who’s behind the scenes on this deal. Well, it turns out that a trust connected to Evan Jehle, a big shot from the New York business management company FFO and a key player on Rihanna’s Clara Lionel Foundation‘s Global Advisory Board, was the buyer. As for the seller, that honor goes to Lapro Property Trust, linked to billionaire Nick Molnar, co-founder of the tech giant Afterpay. Molnar had originally snagged this lavish pad from none other than “Friends” star Matthew Perry for $21.6 million back in 2021.
So, what’s Rihanna’s latest acquisition like? Brace yourself; it’s a surprise! This penthouse covers a whopping 9,290 square feet and offers views that’ll make your heart skip a beat. Inside, you’ll find a mind-blowing great room with dazzling city views, an inviting eat-in kitchen, a game room that screams “let’s party,” a movie lover’s dream with a plush screening room, and not one, not two, but four regal bedrooms. And the cherry on top? Four terraces where you can savor the California sun and those breathtaking views.
Designed by the legendary Robert A.M. Stern Architects, The Century isn’t your average condo complex. It’s a celebrity magnet, and Rihanna fits right in. One of her new neighbors is none other than Candy Spelling, widow of TV producer Aaron Spelling.
While Rihanna’s people are staying tight-lipped about this real estate extravaganza, it’s clear she’s building her empire, one stunning property at a time. And here’s the kicker – she’s also gearing up to welcome her second child, making this superstar’s life even more fabulous.
