Kylie Jenner Spends $2.7 Million On L.A. Mansion; Tyga's Rumored Girlfriend Shows Off Earnings From 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians

Kylie Jenner might be the youngest cast member in "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" but she sure is doing well for her age! Tyga's rumored girlfriend just dropped $2.7 million on a new Los Angeles mansion.

According to TMZ, the 17-year-old bought a new house in The Oaks, an exclusive gated community in Calabasas, often seen in "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" and other reality series including "The Osbournes" and "Newlyweds with Nick and Jessica."

The 4,900 square foot mansion reportedly had a "sick home theater, a pool, 5 bedrooms, an awesome kitchen, and on and on."

Now where did she get all the money? Kylie Jenner was said to make tons of money on "KUWTK." For comparison, Scott Disick earns $4 million a season, so it's no stretch to conclude that Kylie Jenner isn't doing too shabby herself.

The Oaks is quite an odd choice given that it's far from the L.A. party scene. Maybe Kylie is turning a new leaf? Or she just enjoys the exclusivity and privacy that the location offers?

According to Grantland, the Calabasas has gained quite a reputation, especially for attracting celebrities who want to show off their money.

"That faux-coastal Italian architectural style is associated with wealth, but a specific type of wealth: so-called 'new money.' Calabasas draws a certain type of American star, for whom excess itself is a performance," the article said.

"Drake, Bieber, and the Kardashians [and Jenner]- and, let's face it, Kanye - enjoy making a show of their wealth," it added. "What better way to display your spending than to live in the modern-day equivalent of a castle, protected by a moat of security guards?... Rather than pretend they lust after a minimalist mid-century modern house in the L.A. hills, they're just being honest about what image they really want to project: an ostentatious display of wealth."

Tyga's rumored girlfriend recent purchase of a house shows that she's making good use of her money. Do you think she's a bit too young to be spending $2.7 million on such a luxurious house? Sound off in the comments below.
