More than a thousand houses, businesses and other buildings have been destroyed in the destructive fires across the Los Angeles region, with several celebrities speaking out about losing their homes.
Hollywood events, such as the “Wolf Man” and “The Pitt” premieres, were canceled, and production on shows like “Fallout,” “Hacks,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Suits: L.A.” and more were paused. The 2025 Critics Choice Awards, originally set for Jan. 12, has been postponed.
Actor James Woods broke down in tears on CNN after his Pacific Palisades home was lost to the fire.
“One day you’re swimming in the pool and the next day it’s all gone,” Woods said on air. “There was so much chaos, it was like an inferno. Every house was on fire around us.”
Adam Brody and Leighton Meester‘s home in the Pacific Palisades burned down, TMZ reported, as did Anna Faris’ home. Oscar-nominated songwriter Diane Warren posted on Instagram that her beach house of nearly 30 years was lost to the fire.
“There’s a rainbow shining on it which I’m taking as a sign of hope for all creatures who have been affected by this tragedy,” she wrote. “The animals and the rescue ranch are OK tho which is the most important thing. Stay safe everyone.”
Reality TV stars Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag lost their home, in addition to Pratt’s parents’ house.
“The one positive sign i saw as our house burned down was ours sons bed burned in the shape of a heart,” Pratt wrote. “A sign of how much love was in this house so thankful for all the years and memories there with our family.”
“All My Children” and “General Hospital” star Cameron Mathison wrote, “We are safe. But this is what’s left of our beautiful home. Our home where our kids were raised and where they wanted to raise their own someday. Thanks to all who reached out and checked in. Can’t respond to all so wanted to give an update here. Sending so many prayers to everyone being affected by these fires.”
