Gone are the days when Motorhomes were only associated with travelers. Celebrities have been using these trailers to film on the road or use as a private space to relax after a long shoot. Celebrities have multi-million dollar property portfolios, expensive car collections, private jets, and yachts, and joining the list are motorhomes that have been popular with musicians and actors alike. While standard trailers offer regular amenities, some motorhomes are customized to the fullest, stacked with every possible feature required by the celebrity. Designing with the best materials and adding multiple stories adds millions of dollars to the cost.
From Jamie Foxx to Will Smith, the world’s highest-paid celebrities and musicians love to travel and live in style on the set. Their multi-level moving homes have become iconic for their features and prices. Let’s take a look at the most expensive celebrity motorhomes of all time.

Made by the American RV Company Anderson Mobile Estates, Will Smith’s motorhome was the first big-budget RV made by them.

As they live away from their homes for long periods, celebs need to add their personal touch to their temporary moving homes. As movie shootings and concert tours have resumed in 2021, more of these celebs will be seen living in their motorhomes again.
