Rihanna is the new owner of a 40th-floor Los Angeles penthouse in the celebrity-approved, paparazzi-proof 42-story The Century condominium building. The penthouse was formerly owned by Matthew Perry who sold it in 2021 for $21.6 million.
Rihanna paid $21 million for the four-bedroom, 9,290-square-foot condo. She has been a resident of The Century since 2014 in a much smaller unit; Rihanna’s home features panoramic views over Los Angeles, including city, ocean and mountain views – visually stunning in daylight and sparkling with lights at night. It includes enormous rooms – a living room with two fireplaces and a huge master suite with multiple living spaces.
Overall, there are four bedrooms and eight baths, a game room, and a home theater. The chef’s kitchen has island seating as well as a table for casual dining, and there is a separate dining room with glass walls highlighting the views. Four terraces are perfect for entertaining and dining.

Many more flocked to the building including Denzel Washington, a Saudi princess, and a Russian billionaire. The building has four acres of lush private gardens, a 75-foot-long swimming pool, a screening room, yoga and Pilates studios, and a wine-storage facility.
