Rihanna bought a leaky mansion, and she’s not going to sop up the mess and forget all about it. The singer is suing her house’s former owner, claiming she misrepresented the condition of the Beverly Hills home when she sold it to Rihanna for $6.9 million in 2009.
Rihanna is also suing the real estate agent involved in the home’s sale, the inspectors who said that it was “serviceable” before she bought it, and engineers involved in the home’s 2007 to 2008 overhaul. The singer’s beef with the residence began in January, 2010, when a “moderate rainstorm” caused a lot of unexpected water damage from leaks that had previously gone undetected. (Make “Umbrella” jokes at your leisure.)
