Several Hollywood stars, including Jamie Lee Curtis, Mandy Moore, and Paris Hilton, are among the many Los Angeles residents who have lost their homes to the devastating Pacific Palisades wildfires.
The flames, which spread rapidly across the area, forced these celebrities to evacuate their homes, as the situation worsened.
The fire, which is the largest of its kind in recent years, has scorched nearly 12,000 acres in Pacific Palisades, an affluent area known for housing many film, television, and music stars.
Firefighters in California are battling the intense fires, which continue to spread despite their efforts. Thousands of residents, including some of Hollywood’s biggest names, have been forced to evacuate, and the fires remain largely uncontained.
Among those impacted, Mandy Moore shared a poignant Instagram post, revealing her shock at the destruction.
“Honestly, I’m in shock and feeling numb for all so many have lost, including my family. My children’s school is gone. Our favorite restaurants leveled. So many friends and loved ones have lost everything too,” Moore wrote, along with a video showing the destruction in her neighborhood.
She expressed hope despite the tragedy: “Our community is broken, but we will be here to rebuild together. Sending love to all affected and on the front lines trying to get this under control.”
On her Instagram story, she shared the video of Altadena in California, saying she is devastated and gutted for those who've lost so much.
