Mandy Moore, Billy Crystal Among People Who Lost Houses in Fires in Los Angeles

In addition to upsetting the city’s entertainment sector, wildfires raging in and around Los Angeles have destroyed the houses of several celebrities, including Paris Hilton, Mandy Moore, and Billy Crystal.

This weekend’s three award shows have been rescheduled, and the Oscar nominations for next week have been postponed. Some of the most well-known people in Hollywood are among the tens of thousands of Los Angeles residents who are now homeless and anxiously await word on whether their homes survived the fire.

Over 1,900 buildings have already been destroyed, and more are predicted to follow. There are instructions to evacuate more than 130,000 people from Pasadena to the Pacific Coast. In the meantime, fresh flames are starting, expanding the disaster’s reach.

The famous Hollywood Bowl and Dolby Theatre, the site of the Academy Awards, were in the vicinity of a fire in the Hollywood Hills late on Wednesday.

Stars Who Were Affected by the Fires

A number of famous people have made heartfelt remarks over losing their homes.

Billy Crystal
Billy Crystal and his spouse, Janice, lost their Pacific Palisades home of forty-five years. Since 1979, Janice and I have resided in our house. Here, we brought up our kids and grandkids. There was love in every square inch of our home. Lovely memories that are irreplaceable. Naturally, we are devastated, but we will overcome this with the support of our friends and kids,” the Crystals said in a statement.

Mandy Moore
The house of Mandy Moore was damaged in Altadena, which is around 30 miles east of Pacific Palisades.

“To be honest, I’m in shock and feeling numb because so many people, including my family, have lost. My kids are no longer in school. Leveled: our favorite eateries. Moore posted a video of the streets in ruins along with the caption, “So many friends and loved ones have lost everything too.”
“We will work together to repair our community, even though it is broken. Love is being sent to everyone impacted and working to bring this under control.

The Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton shared a video of her demolished Malibu house on Instagram. We made a lot of priceless moments at this house. In reference to her young children, Hilton remarked, “It’s where Phoenix took his first steps and where we dreamed of building a lifetime of memories with London.”

In addition, Cary Elwes, who starred in The Princess Bride, lost his house in the Pacific Palisades fire. Elwes posted on Instagram, “We are thankful to have survived this absolutely devastating fire, even though we did lose our home.”

A Disorganized Awards Season

Hollywood’s meticulously organized awards season has been thrown off balance by the flames, resulting in cancellations and delays.

Films like Wicked and Anora were supposed to receive the AFI Awards, but those ceremonies have been postponed.

  • Additionally, the AARP Movies for Grownups Awards, which honor movies and television series aimed at an older audience, were postponed.
  • The Critics Choice Awards have been moved from their intended Sunday date to February 26.

Projects compete for attention during the Oscar race at each of these events.

Delayed Oscar Nominations
The Oscar nominations announcement has been rescheduled for January 19, two days later. In addition, the voting period has been extended to accommodate members impacted by the fires.

Losses in History and Current Dangers

Los Angeles landmarks are still in danger from the flames, which have damaged important historical structures.

A portion of Palisades Charter High School, which has used as a filming site for television shows like Teen Wolf and films like Carrie (1976) and Freaky Friday (2003), has burned down.

State Historic Park Will Rogers
Will Rogers, a legendary figure in Hollywood, had his ranch house destroyed. The 359-acre Pacific Palisades estate had a golf course, stables, and a 31-room ranch house. In 1944, Rogers’ wife gave the land to California State Parks.

The Motel at Topanga Ranch
The fire also destroyed the famous Topanga Ranch Motel, which William Randolph Hearst had constructed in 1929.

  • Risk to Hollywood Landmarks
    The Walk of Fame, the TCL Chinese Theatre, and the Hollywood Bowl are just a few of the famous locations in the Hollywood Hills that are in danger of catching fire.

This tragic sequence of incidents has left a lasting impression on Los Angeles, affecting both the entertainment sector and its citizens.
