home, a sprawling ranch-style abode out in the prototypically suburban community of Tarzana. The Emmy-winning actress is also a Valley veteran - in addition to her impressive new Sherman Oaks digs, Rudolph owns at least one other L.A. Rudolph, now 48, rose to fame in the ’90s, first as a member of the alt rock band The Rentals before gaining wider recognition as a member of the famed Groundlings comedy troupe. It was Kleveland and Nash who recently off-loaded their home for $2.6 million to its latest owner, prolific Hollywood multi-hyphenate Maya Rudolph (“Saturday Night Live,” “Bridesmaids,” “Grown Ups”). In 2016, Dennings sold the place to noted fashion designer Katherine Kleveland and her husband, MTV producer Colin Nash. Power flipped the house less than a year later to her friend, actress Kat Dennings (“2 Broke Girls,” “Thor,” “WandaVision”). In 2012, the property was purchased for about $1.2 million by “Who What Wear” founder Katherine Power, who co-owns Cameron Diaz’s Avaline wine brand. One of those homes is this walled and hedged mini-estate in Sherman Oaks, which lies just over the hill from the hubbub of Beverly Hills and Hollywood, on a quietly unassuming cul-de-sac. Maybe it’s the old “if it’s good enough for so-and-so, it’s good enough for me” adage, or maybe celebrity-owned homes just have features that make the place more attractive to high-profile types, amenities like walls and tall hedges, not to mention glitzy tech gadgetry and name-brand designers.

"Now we have the ability to just put stuff out there - Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, any f****** place. Then you weren’t even guaranteed that it was going to be in front of a movie you wanted to be in front of. You had to go through the MPAA to get it approved, you had to get it approved by the studio, you had to go through all these hoops. You used to put a trailer up in front of a movie and it was a nightmare. He said: “I remember when I started out, it was impossible to break through. The director admitted "breaking through" was much more difficult in his early career but the social media age has opened more doors for people. "The only way you’re going to film right now is to be aware of what’s happening in the world.” When my daughter was younger, she got Instagram and I tried to get a secret account to follow her. The 51-year-old movie maker told IndieWire: “I have secret accounts all over the place. The ‘Licorice Pizza’ director - who has Pearl, 16, Lucille, 11, Jack, nine, and Ida, eight, with partner Maya Rudolph - thinks it's “hilarious” that he tried to monitor his daughter’s Instagram incognito however she sussed him out but still has them to “be aware of what’s happening in the world” to keep up to date with trends for his film career. Paul Thomas Anderson has “secret” social media profiles “all over the place”
