Issa Rae Becomes Airbnb Host

For Superbowl weekend only, Issa Rae takes on the job of her Insecure character “Issa Dee” and becomes a property manager, well maybe a superhost in training. Airbnb recently announced that Issa Rae is the Airbnb host to this amazing South LA property (see photos below)… yes, life is truly imitating art!

“I’m inviting guests to spend a weekend in my hometown to experience the culture, businesses and communities that influence my storytelling on screen. I can’t wait to show guests all the things that make Black LA so special firsthand,” writes Issa on the vacation home rental website.

Would you like to rent it? Bookings open Tuesday, Feb. 8 at 1pm ET for $56 a night. Visit Airbnb.com/Issa for details!
