00:00The flames in California right now are almost straight up apocalyptic.
00:04So many celebs call Cali home, so it makes sense that a lot of them are being affected
00:08by what's going on there right now.
00:09A series of fires are continuing to ravage through Los Angeles, forcing more than 30,000
00:14residents to evacuate their homes.
00:21From Bella Hadid to Mark Hamill and Sandra Lee, it looks like a lot more celebs are evacuating.
00:26More than 80,000 people have been evacuated, including several major celebrities.
00:32Bella Hadid's childhood home, which once belonged to her mom, Yolanda Hadid, was heavily impacted.
00:38Bella hopped on her Instagram story on January 8, 2025, to show a snapshot of the Malibu
00:42property caught amid the flames, plus another photo revealing that most of the structure
00:47was gone.
00:48Bella Hadid shared a heartbreaking photo of her childhood home burning down amid the ongoing
00:53fires tearing through Los Angeles.
00:56Her fans might remember this estate from its frequent cameos on The Real Housewives
00:59of Beverly Hills and, fun fact, Yolanda sold it in 2015 per people.
01:05Can you imagine looking at pictures of a spot you grew up in and seeing it pretty much leveled?
01:09So emotional.
01:10Bella wrote on the snap with a sad face emoji, childhood bedroom.
01:14Milo Ventimiglia was visibly moved when checking out what remained of his Malibu, California
01:19home, which was very affected by the ongoing situation.
01:22You start thinking about all the memories, he told CBS News on January 9, 2025, referencing
01:27how hard it is to see his neighborhood in such distress.
01:31This unfortunate turn of events comes right as Milo and his pregnant wife, Jarrah Mariano,
01:35are eagerly awaiting their first little one.
01:38The duo, who quietly tied the knot in 2023, even watched their home get overtaken by flames
01:42throughout their security cameras.
01:44At a certain point, we just turned it off, Milo explained.
01:47Honestly, that's so sad to picture, but he sounds determined to move forward for his
01:51growing family.
01:53Eva Longoria had a short-lived evacuation experience stepping away from her Los Angeles
01:56home after receiving a super scary alert on her phone.
01:59Luckily, she's back now and hosting a few friends who need a safe haven.
02:03On January 12, 2025, the Desperate Housewives star jumped on Instagram to chat about how
02:09unsettling it felt to leave on such short notice, but she was quick to say she felt
02:14lucky to return.
02:15On top of that, she plans to donate to This Is About Humanity to support the frontline
02:18folks and families affected by the flames.
02:21You've gotta love her generous spirit and how she's always ready to help others.
02:25Julia Louis-Dreyfus and her husband, Brad Hall, are another well-known couple whose
02:29gorgeous place was lost to the elements recently.
02:31Back in the early 90s, they snagged that Mediterranean-style spot with five bedrooms and five bathrooms.
02:37Talk about fancy.
02:38According to the Daily Mail, it's now basically gone.
02:41Can you imagine all the memories they made over there in the decades just to see it all
02:45vanish?
02:46It's a tough pill to swallow, but Julia's always been resilient, so hopefully they'll
02:49bounce back in no time.
02:50The legendary songwriter Diane Warren opened up about her beloved beach house being heavily
02:54affected by the situation.
02:56She posted a photo of her sentimental rock with the ocean in the background, writing,
02:59I've had this house for almost 30 years, in her heartfelt caption.
03:03It's tough to lose a place filled with so many creative vibes and personal moments.
03:07In her post, she talked about a rainbow shining on the rock and took it as a sign of hope
03:12for everyone dealing with this tough situation.
03:14The best news?
03:15Her animals and rescue ranch are safe, and if you follow Diane, you know how huge that
03:19is for her peace of mind.
03:21Sandra Lee also found herself caught up in the ongoing flames.
03:24On January 7th, 2025, she posted a chilling video, saying, As the fire draws closer, I
03:29pray for it, and expressing how unsettling the whole experience has been for her community.
03:34Then only a day later, she confirmed on social media that her home was gone.
03:38She admitted she cried all night thinking about every perfect nook and cranny that was
03:41now lost.
03:42It's beyond tough imagining such a cozy place you poured your heart into just simply vanishing
03:47overnight.
03:48It's Sandra staying in touch with everyone and urging people to stay connected, which
03:51really shows her caring side.
03:54Star Wars icon Mark Hamill took to social media to share that he evacuated his Malibu
03:58home as he saw small fires on both sides of the road while heading up.
04:01In his post, he sent supportive vibes to others, calling this the most horrific fire since
04:0693, and telling everyone to stay safe.
04:08You can practically feel his concern through the screen.
04:11We're all hoping that he and everyone else in that area stays calm and finds a way through
04:14it.
04:15Mark Huttenberg, a star from Police Academy who's also local to the same region, urged
04:19folks who fled to be mindful of how they park so that flame engines and other emergency
04:24responders can get through.
04:25We really need people to move their cars, he said, explaining that some neighbors are
04:29literally stuck in place because vehicles are blocking the roads.
04:31There's families up there, there are pets up there, there are people who really need
04:34help, he insisted.
04:36If that's not a real community PSA, I don't know what is.
04:39Everyone's just trying to pitch in however they can.
04:41Maria Shriver took to Instagram expressing her sadness over the whole thing, sharing
04:45a journalist's video of the aftermath for her followers to see.
04:48Everything is gone, she said, noting the impact on her neighborhood and local restaurants.
04:53She mentioned that even though she and her family have evacuated, they're safe, but so
04:56many friends have lost touch.
04:58It's incredibly emotional for someone who's been such a pillar in California for years
05:02to see her community facing such challenges.
05:05Celebrity hairstylist Jen Atkin revealed on January 8th, 2025, that she and her husband
05:09Mike lost their homes in flames.
05:11Posting a tearful selfie on her Instagram story, she wrote, this is weird to post, but
05:14our house is gone, our whole area demolished.
05:17Her words paint a picture of how stressful it must be for them, especially when she mentions
05:20everyone feeling scared and displaced.
05:23Despite this huge setback, Jen is still remaining positive, reassuring fans that she and Mike
05:28will always push through.
05:29Fun fact, she's well known for working with the Kardashian-Jenner crew, so you know she's
05:33got quite a supportive circle to help her rebuild.
05:36Real housewives of Beverly Hill newbie, Bozoma St. John, shared that she lost her Malibu
05:40mansion in Los Angeles.
05:41She posted a deeply personal Instagram update on January 9th, writing, it is gone.
05:46This is an unimaginable loss.
05:47I grieve with the rest of Los Angeles.
05:50The carousel she posted includes tons of special memories of the home she described as the
05:53house I wanted, the house I prayed for, the house I worked for, in sweat and tears.
05:57It's definitely heart-wrenching, but she's proven that she's strong and resilient.
06:01No doubt she'll keep pushing forward for herself and her daughter, Lail.
06:05Jeanne Aiko also faced a huge challenge when her Los Angeles residence was impacted by
06:10flames.
06:11On January 9th, 2025, she posted on Instagram, me and my children's home is now gone.
06:15With all of our things inside, thankful we will still have each other.
06:19Starting from scratch.
06:20My heart is so heavy.
06:21She's mom to a daughter and a son, so this is clearly a major blow for their family.
06:25Still, she seems focused on gratitude, cherishing that her loved ones are safe, a reminder of
06:29what really matters.
06:30Joshua Jackson's getaway took a significant hint during the Los Angeles elemental setbacks.
06:36Originally purchased in 2001, the cliffside property boasted four bedrooms, two baths,
06:41a vintage Volkswagen, and in a statement to Deadline on January 12th, 2025, he said,
06:57So amazing.
06:58Princess bride legend, Keri Elwes, confirmed that he and his family lost their home to
07:02the flames as well.
07:03So we kept things as upbeat as possible.
07:05He wrote on Instagram.
07:06Firstly, myself, my family are all safe.
07:08Sadly, we did lose our home, but we're grateful to have survived this.
07:11He went on to thank the brave first responders who worked tirelessly through the night and
07:15also acknowledged the overwhelming support from fans and neighbors.
07:18His sincere gratitude and relief that everyone's okay really shined through, showing that community
07:22spirit counts for a lot in these tough times.
07:29Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are lending a helping hand to those impacted by the Los
07:32Angeles wildfires.
07:34From disaster tourists to ambulance chasers, Harry and Meghan's visit to L.A. has some
07:39Angelenos seeing red.
07:41After they were seen reportedly helping after the L.A. flames ran through the neighborhood,
07:48people are thinking they only did it for fame.
07:51The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were spotted distributing food and necessities at the Pasadena
07:55Convention Center.
07:56Meghan Markle and Prince Harry found themselves in hot water over the weekend after stepping
08:02out in Los Angeles to aid people affected by the blaze.
08:12While the royal couple's volunteer work initially appeared to be a positive gesture, actress
08:17Justine Bateman, 58, slammed them for clout chasing, pretty much.
08:23This got everyone on social media talking.
08:26Family Ties star Justine Bateman slammed H&M for what she believes to be an insensitive
08:31photo-op.
08:32Justine, best known for her role on Family Ties, took to X, formerly Twitter, to criticize
08:39Meghan and Harry for what she viewed as a self-serving public appearance.
08:44They are no better than ambulance chasers, Justine wrote, calling the couple's on-the-ground
08:51efforts a repulsive photo-op.
08:54Justine went on to question whether Meghan and Harry, who don't live here, were simply
09:00touring the damage, like politicians.
09:03Justine Bateman punctuated her critique with a common hashtag people are using for the
09:09situation before signing off.
09:12A video clip that Justine reposted showed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex helping out
09:18at a convention center in Pasadena, California, where many residents displaced by the raging
09:24flames have taken shelter.
09:27As of yet, Meghan Markle and Harry's reps have not responded to Justine's comments or
09:33other media inquiries.
09:35Meanwhile, Pasadena Mayor Victor M. Gordo had a different take when speaking with Fox
09:4111.
09:42He expressed gratitude for the couple's presence, calling them great people, great personalities,
09:48and great heart.
09:56The mayor described a moment when Harry grabbed a donut for a person who had asked for one,
10:02prompting the stranger, unaware of Harry's royal background, to joke,
10:07If you ever run for anything, I'll vote for you.
10:11Despite the positive words from local leadership, the flames continue to run across Los Angeles
10:16County.
10:25Authorities recently confirmed that Meghan and Harry's own Montecito residence is located
10:30in a high-risk zone, but the pair remains safe and is offering their home to friends
10:36forced to evacuate.
10:38The couple's Archiwell Foundation has also donated supplies and clothing, while Markle
10:44postponed the release of her upcoming Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, due to the ongoing
10:50situation.
10:51They're not the only famous faces who have shown up to help.
10:55Jennifer Garner was spotted volunteering, and countless others are doing their part
11:00under the radar.
11:02However, even as some stars join the relief effort quietly, Meghan and Harry's high-profile
11:08appearance has drawn further critique online.
11:12Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are lending a helping hand to those impacted by the Los
11:15Angeles wildfires.
11:17A YouTube personality named Neil Sean reportedly claimed the Sussex team tipped off the press
11:23about the exact time and place of their arrival, suggesting it was staged.
11:29A commenter agreed, saying,
11:31It would have been better for them to show up without telling the press and spend the
11:36day actually working.
11:38Maybe they wouldn't have had all these news stories and photographs about them.
11:43Another commenter weighed in,
11:45I agree with Justine.
11:47It comes off like a gesture to give them a photo op to raise their popularity rating.
11:52She didn't want to work in England, but does this.
11:55And a user replied,
11:56Yes, it was just a photo op.
11:59That's the only reason they were there.
12:01Notice in every photo.
12:03She is always centered in the middle of the photo.
12:06Nothing different here.
12:08In addition to Mayor Gordo's praise, local volunteers also voiced approval for the couple's
12:14efforts, noting that Meghan and Harry spent hours with first responders and evacuees.
12:21One volunteer, who asked not to be named, told KTLA,
12:26They showed genuine concern and kept asking how they could help more.
12:30I personally didn't see cameras hovering around them.
12:33However, others questioned how much was done outside of public view, wondering whether
12:38the couple's star power might overshadow the day-to-day work carried out by lesser
12:43known volunteers.
12:45Some onlookers whispered that the pair left sooner than expected to avoid constant scrutiny
12:50from local paparazzi.
12:52While Meghan and Prince Harry are providing tangible help to people affected by the blaze,
12:58like donating resources, providing shelter, and actually showing up in person to lend
13:03a helping hand, people are still divided about whether or not they are doing this for clout.
13:10Supporters applaud Meghan and Harry for stepping up, while critics like Justine Bateman and
13:15others on social media insist that if the couple truly wanted to help without fanfare,
13:21a private visit would have spoken louder than the snapshots now circulating everywhere.
13:27The roaring flames going on in Hollywood rarely spare anything.
13:31As people in Southern California face a sixth straight day of deadly wildfires, crews...
13:36But some of these celebs got lucky.
13:38Really lucky.
13:39I mean, saved by inches lucky.
13:41Tom Hanks, Mandy Moore, and others have been spared for the time being by the elements.
13:46Tom Hanks' estate in the Pacific Palisades stood strong while many around it were severely
13:51affected.
13:52Tom Hanks' $26 million home narrowly avoided the raging LA wildfire.
13:57His clifftop mansion remained intact with the signature white walls and green yard,
14:01even though the property just above it saw most of its structure disappear, leaving only
14:04scattered debris and lingering smoke.
14:07Mandy Moore shared on social media that her main house remains, though it's not currently
14:11livable.
14:13She wrote,
14:14We were able to park and walk up to our street to bear witness to all the loss.
14:16Miraculously, the main part of our house is still standing.
14:19For now, it's not livable, but mostly intact.
14:21Mandy explained that her musician husband, Taylor Goldsmith, and brother Griffin lost
14:25their music studio, along with a garage and backhouse.
14:29A neighboring home was reduced to almost nothing, with Mandy confirming that they lost everything.
14:35Photos revealed that the front portion of her place appears relatively unharmed, but
14:40the studio and an adjoining area are heavily impacted.
14:43Mark Hamill, who is in Star Wars and is an icon, had to evacuate too.
14:48He will be relieved his Malibu residence avoided the worst.
14:51The home is fully upright, even though an annex is shockingly close to a neighbor's
14:55property that didn't pull through the flames.
14:58Only a brick chimney and a few drawers remain on that lot.
15:01Mark Hamill took to social media to share that he evacuated his Malibu home as he saw
15:05small fires on both sides of the road while heading out.
15:08In his post, he sent supportive vibes to others, calling this the most horrific fire since
15:1293 and telling everyone to stay safe.
15:15You can practically feel his concern through the screen.
15:17We're all hoping that he and everyone else in that area stays calm and finds a way through
15:21it.
15:22Steven Spielberg's sprawling retreat, valued at tens of millions, also skirted the elements.
15:27Much of its lush greenery and pool area stayed intact, though nearby structures weren't as
15:32fortunate.
15:33The Palisades region continued to see widespread damage, but Spielberg's address remains a
15:38surprising pocket of normalcy.
15:40Hunter Biden's Malibu home escaped, despite land being scorched directly beside it.
15:45The area to the right shows a small building that's mostly gone, while the left where Hunter's
15:49place sits still appears unscathed.
15:52A few other celeb spots, including Jennifer Love Hewitt and Kate Hudson's, also remain,
15:57but the surrounding neighborhood haven't been so lucky.
15:59Multiple blazes continue to run across LA, with at least 10 individuals confirmed no
16:04longer with us, though many fear that the number could be higher.
16:08Local tension escalated when a suspected man allegedly tried starting another blaze near
16:11a celeb enclave.
16:17The neighbors tackled and tied him up until law enforcement arrived.
16:21Officials say that they're treating the spot as a scene while the Kenneth Flame continues
16:24to cover more than 1,000 acres.
16:26The man, believed to be in his 30s, is in custody as investigations unfold.
16:31Though some prominent homes remain standing, the greater Los Angeles area continues to
16:35face uncertainty.
16:37Many families are still displaced, and the effort to contain all the active flames is
16:41ongoing, underscoring a tense time for the city and its residents.
16:44Sadly, some well-known personalities faced significant impacts, but a few notable addresses
16:49narrowly avoided the worst.
16:51P. Diddy has a wild connection to the LA fires that you won't believe.
16:57One of his survivors has spoken about what's happening, long before it even started, apparently.
17:07In a city already rocked by massive flames and celebrity evacuations, one house remains
17:13curiously untouched, Diddy's lavish 17,000-square-foot Los Angeles estate.
17:19The fact that Diddy's home has emerged untouched while he sits behind bars has ignited a new
17:26theory, led by none other than Kathryn Austin Fitz, a former government official-turned-podcaster
17:32who loves stirring the pot.
17:35According to Kathryn Austin Fitz, the blazes that have consumed mega-mansions belonging
17:40to stars like Miles Teller, Anna Faris, and Anthony Hopkins may have been orchestrated
17:46to cover up Diddy's allegations.
17:48How many of the homeowners were on the P. Diddy list?
17:53Naturally, social media is going wild over this one.
17:57On her Financial Rebellion podcast, Kathryn Austin Fitz let loose with questions about
18:03whether any high-profile players linked to Diddy have been significantly impacted.
18:09In situations like the LA flames, I look at patterns.
18:13I look at some of the communities involved.
18:16She said on Thursday, January 9, 2025, how many of the homeowners were on the P. Diddy
18:23list?
18:24She's referring to what theorists call the Diddy list, an unconfirmed roster of celebrities
18:31who allegedly moved in the same circles as Diddy and attended his infamous freak-off
18:36parties.
18:37Gossip about these parties has circulated for years, with rumors of very wild activities
18:42and even darker claims made in formal documents.
18:46Diddy's star-studded list of friends is well known.
18:49Everyone from Jay-Z and Beyonce to Jennifer Lopez and Leonardo DiCaprio has been photographed
18:56alongside him at one point or another.
18:58However, those convinced by Kathryn Austin Fitz point out that while Paris Hilton, also
19:05supposedly on the Diddy list, lost her Malibu home to the flames, Diddy's Holmby Hills
19:11mansion remains perfectly intact.
19:14It's located at 200 South Mapleton Drive, near the edge of the Pacific Palisades, where
19:21nature has been especially wild recently.
19:24Yet, somehow, his property continues to stand tall without so much as a scratch.
19:30This little detail has only fueled chatter that perhaps the massive flames, the biggest
19:36LA flame in history, responsible for running through thousands of acres and displacing
19:41over 180,000 people, was used as a convenient shield to get rid of evidence related to
19:48Diddy's allegations.
19:51Before the rumors could run away completely, certain Facebook posts claimed the mansion
19:56had actually been reduced to its foundation, rendering it impossible to be investigated.
20:02A prime example came from a user who posted,
20:05P. Diddy's mansion in California has been completely consumed.
20:09The house would have been under investigation in a couple of days.
20:13That post used a photo of a home from over a decade ago, confirmed by the Cincinnati
20:19Enquirer to be from January 2014, making the entire claim blatantly false.
20:26Newsweek also chimed in, confirming Diddy's mansion was, in fact, fine.
20:32Even more interesting details surfaced when an alleged survivor, Allie Carter, came forward
20:38with claims that she'd been subjected to certain things at Diddy's parties.
20:43Allie, who has a website describing her experiences, has been gaining online traction since November
20:492020.
20:51She insists Diddy's freak-offs were hotbeds of activity.
20:56Though some might dismiss her story as another unverified rumor, her videos and statements
21:02have certainly added fuel to the theories surrounding Diddy.
21:05In October 2024, Allie Carter's video was shared on Facebook by Coco Can't Be Denied,
21:13where she teased a future arrest and also dropped cryptic hints about suspicious flames.
21:19She warned that these would appear accidental at first, but would later be linked to cover-ups
21:25once the truth came out.
21:27In December 2024, she reiterated those claims to Stu Peters, explaining how she was also
21:34transported through underground tunnels beneath schools, mansions, and amusement parks.
21:41Meanwhile, Diddy's mansion continues to sit pretty, despite being close to the Palisades
21:46flames.
21:48All the while, celebrities all around him—Anthony Hopkins, Miles Teller, Anna Faris, and plenty
21:55more—have been forced to run from their homes or watch their properties turn to ash.
22:01Actor and comedian Eugene Levy was also part of the mass exodus, dodging the flames that
22:07brought an end to the lives of at least 16 Californians.
22:12As for Diddy, he remains behind bars, with claims still spreading about his unaffected
22:17house being just too fishy to ignore.
