The wildfires that ravaged the Pacific Palisades neighborhood in Los Angeles have left a trail of destruction, with many celebrities losing their homes to the flames. The fast-moving fires, which began on January 7, have burned thousands of acres and displaced over 80,000 residents, including numerous stars who have called the area home for years. Among the celebrities who have lost their homes are Paris Hilton, Milo Ventimiglia, Billy Crystal, Mel Gibson, Miles Teller, and Anthony Hopkins.

The Palisades, known for its wealthy residences with an average house price of around $4.5 million, has been hit particularly hard by the disaster. Bella Hadid shared an image of her childhood home in Malibu burning down, expressing her sorrow on Instagram. “The memories we made in this house, the love my mama put into building it…

I will miss you 3903 carbon canyon rd,” she wrote. The home, originally owned by her mother Yolanda Hadid, was sold for $19.5 million in 2015. Milo Ventimiglia, known for his roles in “This is Us” and “Heroes,” watched helplessly via security cameras as his Malibu home burned down, alongside his pregnant wife, Jarah.

In an interview with CBS News, he described the devastating experience and acknowledged the loss. Actors Bryan Greenberg and Jamie Chung confirmed the loss of their home on January 9. Greenberg shared a photo of the wreckage on Instagram, writing, “It was all a dream.

Thankfully the family is safe.
