Hemphill Brothers, an RV company in Nashville, usually rents out RVs to celebrities, but since the coronavirus canceled all music tours, members of the public can rent the RVs instead.
The RVs start at $2,000 per night and come with a driver, seven beds, and a full kitchen.
The RVs also have outdoor TVs, showers, and WiFi.
For 40 years, the Hemphill Brothers have built modern, luxury RVs for celebrities including Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Cher, Dolly Parton, and Oprah, but when the coronavirus hit, concert tours and events across the country were put on hold. Brothers Trent and Joey Hemphill had to suddenly think of a new way to operate their business.
Now, the Nashville-based company is opening up its RVs to the general public for the first time. These luxury vehicles that celebrities once used as tour buses can be yours for short stays ... starting at $2,000 a night.
Take a look inside some of these luxury homes on wheels.
