WEEKENDEDITION Pop star Katy Perry has finally sold her Hollywood Hills home, but at a nearly $1 million loss.

The home, which she originally purchased for $6.5 million with her comedian ex-husband Russell Brand in 2011, spent all of 2013 on the market, with an $8 million ask.

But now the three-acre Mediterranean-style house, built in 1925, which also includes a caretaker’s apartment and a guesthouse, has sold for $5.65 million, according to TMZ.
