Rihanna's New York penthouse is up for sale for close to £13million ($16.9million) - and it looks incredible! The Wild Thoughts singer, who owns several homes in Los Angeles and her native Barbados, has been renting the duplex in Manhattan for the past four years for the staggering sum of £37,975 per month.

The downtown Manhattan apartment was originally listed for $18.75million (around £14.2million) earlier in the summer, but the price has since been reduced. The four-bedroom apartment, which is listed for sale on Zoopla, has 4,660 square feet of living space spread over two floors, along with a huge wrap-around terrace that offers amazing views of the New York skyline.

It's easy to see why Rihanna chose the penthouse as her base while she's in the Big Apple; as well as having a central location on Lafayette Street, the apartment has lots of space along with the security of being in a fully-serviced building with 24-hour doorman.
