Katy Perry, the pop star has recently purchased a luxurious penthouse in Sierra Towers, Los Angeles, for a whopping $11 million. Although rumors suggest that she may be leaving her role as a judge on “American Idol,” Perry’s love for California remains intact, as evidenced by this lavish acquisition.
The 38-year-old singer acquired the “junior penthouse” through a limited liability company that shares an address in Encino, California. This address is also associated with another LLC where Perry serves as the director. Moreover, her famous eponymous shoe collection is registered at the same location.
Property records reveal that the seller of this residence is Jen Kao, daughter of billionaire Min Kao, the founder of Garmin. Kao had originally purchased the property in 2016 for $9.3 million, making a profitable sale to Perry.

Spanning approximately 3,000 square feet, the condo boasts two bedrooms and three bathrooms, as mentioned in the listing by the Agency. Initially listed for just under $12.5 million in January, the home offers exquisite features and finishes.
Situated on the highest floor of the 31-story tower, the penthouse showcases stunning dark-wood flooring and intricate wood detailing throughout, as displayed in the listing photos. Notable features include built-in shelving, a beautifully crafted wet bar framed with wood, and wooden cabinetry in the kitchen.
The main living area boasts a semi-open layout, with a dining room adjacent to the kitchen and living room. The living room features floor-to-ceiling windows that lead to a deck, offering breathtaking views of the city and the distant mountains. Additionally, there is a captivating dark red home theater, adding a touch of luxury and entertainment.
While currently engaged in a residency in Las Vegas, Perry has been making headlines with rumors circulating about her potential departure from “American Idol,” as reported by The Daily Mail.
Perry is no stranger to the world of real estate. Last summer, she made headlines by selling a magnificent Beverly Hills home for a staggering $18 million, according to Mansion Global. This latest purchase adds to a series of high-profile real estate transactions by the pop star.
