Tyler Perry sells his sexy Hollywood Hills bachelor pad for $11.25 million

He has never married and has an estimated net worth of $400 million.

But actor-director Tyler Perry has reportedly sold his kitted out Hollywood Hills bachelor pad for $11.25 million last October.

Perry's pool also serves as an aquarium filled with bathing beauties, thanks to the posh place's two underground windows looking into the billiards room and sitting lounge.

The six-foot-five drag star, famed for his recurring role as elderly spitfire Madea, originally paid $9.6 million for the four-bedroom mansion in 2006.

According to the LA Times, the 43-year-old funnyman had listed the 9,725-square-foot home five times in the past three years starting with an asking price of $13.25 million.
