The L.A. fires are continuing to ravage local communities this week, with thousands of Californians affected. As reported by CBS News, more than 45 square miles of land have burned in Los Angeles, which has put roughly 179,000 people under evacuation orders. Officials also report that five people have died because of the fires, more than 1,300 structures have burned, and “over 60,000 structures were threatened Thursday as strong winds fanned blazes in densely populated parts of Southern California.”
As Los Angeles is the city of television and film, many local celebrities are being forced to evacuate their homes. Scary Movie star Anna Faris is among those reported to have lost their house in the Pacific Palisades. In the same area, the home of Adam Brody and Leighton Meester, who were all smiles just last weekend at the 2025 Golden Globes, was reportedly burned to ashes, as were the homes of Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Teller (neé Sperry) and Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins.
Eugene Levy, who also resides in the area and is the honorary mayor of the Palisades, spoke to the Los Angeles Times, saying that he had to evacuate his home, which was ultimately destroyed in the wildfires. “The smoke looked pretty black and intense over Temescal Canyon,” he recalled. “I couldn’t see any flames, but the smoke was very dark.”
Ben Affleck reportedly had to evacuate, too, seeking refuge with ex-wife Jennifer Garner and their children. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Mexican director Guillermo del Toro has also had to evacuate, while other at-risk stars who reside close by include Jennifer Aniston, Bradley Cooper, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Reese Witherspoon, Adam Sandler, Michael Keaton, and many more.
