Ben Affleck to Tom Hanks: Which stars face threats from raging LA wildfires?
The homes of Hollywood celebrities were at risk on Wednesday night as a fierce wildfire broke out in the Hollywood Hills, just a mile from the Hollywood Walk of Fame. While some stars lost their homes, others still remain in close proximity to the uncontained and advancing flames. Page Six released a map of the affected zone, highlighting celebrity residences in the area.
“Schitt’s Creek” actor Eugene Levy’s house was destroyed, as shown in an image shared by the outlet. The homes of “Nobody Wants This” actor Adam Brody, his wife and “Gossip Girl” actress Leighton Meester, Anna Faris, James Woods, and reality TV duo Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt were also lost.
In Malibu, the fires threaten properties belonging to actor-singer Miley Cyrus and “Star Wars” actor Mark Hamill. In Santa Monica, actress Jamie Lee Curtis’ home is in danger, while farther north lie the residences of Michael Keaton, Tom Hanks, and his wife, Rita Wilson.
Beyond Pacific Palisades are properties owned by filmmaker Steven Spielberg and actors Diane Keaton and Ben Affleck. Affleck’s $20 million bachelor pad is at risk, and he was seen seeking refuge at his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s house.
On Wednesday, stars like Mandy Moore, Cary Elwes, and Paris Hilton confirmed that their homes were destroyed. Actor and his wife Janice also lost their Palisades home of 45 years.
Over 1,000 structures, primarily homes, have been reduced to ashes, and more than 130,000 residents in the metropolitan area are under evacuation orders.
Despite the arrival of hundreds of firefighters from other states, the four uncontrolled blazes remain a significant threat. Combined, the fires have scorched roughly 42 square miles — an area comparable to the size of San Francisco.
