Party Rock? LMFAO’s Redfoo Lists West Hollywood Condo for .4M

LMFAO singer Stefan Kendal Gordy, better known by his stage name Redfoo, has put his 1,600-square-foot condo in West Hollywood, CA, on the market for $2.4 million, two years after picking it up for just $1.3 million.

Gordy, 42, started LMFAO with his nephew, Sky Blu, in 2006 and produced a string of chart-topping hits, including “Party Rock Anthem” and “Sexy and I Know It.” The group went on hiatus in 2012.

Sometime between releasing a solo album, launching a new clothing line, moving to the other side of the planet to be a judge on “The X Factor Australia,” and competing on “Dancing With the Stars,” Gordy bought the condo, located in the Empire West building, and then spent nine months renovating it.

Built in 1964, the 17-story Empire West building is located a block off the Sunset Strip. It includes celebrity-friendly amenities such as 24-hour valet service, tennis court, entertainment center, gym, and rooftop swimming pool with views of the Hollywood Hills and downtown Los Angeles.

Gordy ordered a top-to-bottom renovation of the two-bedroom, two-bath condo around a stark gray and white color palette, with white porcelain tile floors throughout, white walls, ceilings, and built-in cabinets. Splashes of dark gray can be seen in the geometric shower tiles and the floating double vanity in the bathroom.

Gordy’s onstage persona is the irreverent party starter, with bright neon outfits and a wild entourage. His condo, as it appears in the listing, looks like a picture of high-end Swedish efficiency.

He outfitted the unit with Wi-Fi-connected lightbulbs, TVs, and appliances, allowing him to control everything from his smartphone.

As fans of smart home technology, we geeked out over Gordy’s fridge, a double-door Family Hub refrigerator from Samsung, which comes with a 21.5-inch LED touch screen that displays your calendar, weather forecast, notes, photos, and entertainment apps.

One of the fridge’s coolest (pun intended) features? You can see a photo of what’s inside anytime, from your smartphone. So you can check exactly how much milk you’ve got left while you’re at the grocery store. You can also order grocery deliveries straight from the kitchen, using a Samsung app called Groceries by Mastercard. It retailed last year for around $6,000.

“The ideal buyer would be successful, young, spirited creative types who are looking to thrive in a like-minded community,” listing agent Lester Cook says. “Basically the kind of person who walks down the street and thinks to themselves, ‘I’m Sexy and I Know It!’”
