Rihanna is expanding her family – she already shares a son with rapper A$AP Rocky and the couple have baby number two on the way – and her property portfolio as well.
As the star prepares to welcome her second child, she is moving on up big time, up to a massive Los Angeles penthouse dubbed "mansion in the sky."
She becomes not the first major star to live in the impressive property. Friends alum Matthew Perry once lived in the home as well, which he sold in 2021 after purchasing it in 2017.

The home, which occupies the entire 40th floor of the The Century high rise, boasts a whopping 9,300 square-feet, for which Rihanna shelled out a casual $21 million.
The penthouse features not one, not two, but four terraces, four bedrooms, eight bathrooms, an expansive living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, an all-white kitchen with marble countertops, dual islands and an adjoining dining space, plus a screening room, separate family rooms and a den, plus a billiards room.

The primary suite is almost an apartment in and of itself, with separate seating areas, a fireplace, dual bathrooms, and major walk-in closets.

Matthew initially bought the home in 2017 for $20 million, though the deal to sell it in 2021 for $21.6 million made it a record-breaking sale as the apartment became Southern California's priciest condo in 2021. The actor sold it to Nick Molnar, the billionaire co-founder of tech company Afterpay, who had initially listed it for $28 million.

News of the million-dollar sale comes just two weeks after Los Angeles enacted its new mansion tax on April 1st, which requires sellers to pay 4% on sales of homes priced between $5 million and $10 million, and 5.5% on sales of properties at $10 million or above.
