Celebrity Real Estate: 8 Entertainers Who Put Lavish Homes on the Market


After breaking the Internet waves with the sale of Beats by Dre headphones to Apple for a whopping $3 billion, Dr. Dre decided that a boost in cash flow also called for a boost in his living standards. The hip-hop businessman, who Forbes has labeled to be well on his way to billionaire status, sold his lavish 9,696 square foot California pad that looks out onto downtown Los Angeles from the Hollywood Hills for $35 million. And in true entrepreneurial fashion, the Compton native sold the home above his buying price, which he dropped $15.4 million for in December 2011.

Moving on to bigger and better, Dr. Dre purchased Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen’s home, which includes a moat, terraces, and an infinity pool for $40 million.
