The 2,400-square-foot, mid-century three-bedroom with an inground pool is located above the Sunset Strip with panoramic views of downtown L.A. The decorations, including "fire-engine red" doors and a gold-framed portrait of a grinning Dolly Parton greeting visitors inside the front door, don't disappoint, [according to a blog post from Realtor.com](https://www.realtor.com/news/celebrity-real-estate/rupaul-los-angeles-home-5-takeaways/). (It's unclear from the listing whether Dolly comes with house.) RuPaul, who has won three Emmys, purchased the home for $2.5 million in 2011, says Realtor.com. He also owns another two-bedroom condo in West L.A. and a residence in Manhattan.
