Celebrities whose houses burned down thread

James Woods

Does Paltrow still live in Brentwood? Did she get out or did her cases of unsold vagina candles in the garage fuel the flames?

I feel bad for the Brody's. They seem like a nice normal couple.

James who?

Cameron Mathison from All My Children and now General Hospital.

Ana Faris.

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag, but I'm not sure they count.

omg poor Ricki Lake lost her place in Malibu. You could tell from her Instagram that she really loved her place.

Suzanne Somers

She died cunt r8

Pacific Palisades is lovely, but they have been prone to wildfires for decades now. This fire was especially out of control, so the odds of your house getting engulfed was dramatically increased.

I hope Chalamet’s mansion gets burned to the ground.

These wildfires seem to be a a yearly occurrence. Why do wealthy people contribute to buy homes in high risk areas?

Not like these r12

^ They can afford the insurance.

^ But can the insurance afford them?

^ You better believe it.

I thought State Farm ended home insurance for these areas?

[quote] She died cunt [R8]

We'll her house did burn down, and this IS a thread titled "Celebrities whose houses burned down", fuckface.

What's the word on Barbra?

There was a quite bit of media coverage when Suzanne Somers' house burned down. A news crew was around when she went to see what was left. The tabloids published tons of pictures of her crying in her car.

Looks like that asshole Jimmy Woods is getting what he deserves.

Is English your first language, OP?

Cameron Mathison walks through the remains of his house

It was a beautiful house too

R18 you loose twat! You should have wrote Dead Suzanne Somers’ fucking house burned down!

The Wise and Foolish Builders

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”

Gene Kelly.

Suzanne was fine, she had her 3 Way Poncho™️ on!

I'll take one for the team and provide shelter to Cameron Mathison. You're welcome.

Lots of M-G-M memorabilia lost in that Gene Kelly fire. Crying shame.

jeez Adam Brody got a SAG nomination on the same day his house burnt down.

Looks like Paris Hilton's place went up in flames

What was on Adam's I-Pod?

r19 Babs is taking refuge in her subterranean shopping centre.

Oh, the humanity!

so hot.

How is Brendad Ickson's condo holding up? Did Gelson's burn?

Gelson's was mentioned by one field reporter a bunch yesterday, R38, but I don't think it's Brednad's. Flames were licking it's back walls.

Please DL, open your hearts and send Brendad some potatoe salad and chardonnay!

Lesbian comedian Gina Yashere who co created and co-starred in Bob Hearts Abishola lost her house.

[Quote] I thought State Farm ended home insurance for these areas?

Correct, r17. Even James Woods confirmed it in a tweet, guess he doesn't have insurance.

Apparently anyone who lived on the beach in Malibu.

Holy shit r43

Paris Hilton.

Aaron Rodgers owns a Malibu beach home.

I don't know which beach. Maybe Carbon or Broad, really don't know if it's either of those or a different one.

Gossip had it that he paid 28 million.

^Celebrities whose houses should burn down

The owner of the Milwaukee Brewers also owns a Malibu beach home.

Bob Dylan’s house?

I'm melting! I'm melting!

[quote]These wildfires seem to be a a yearly occurrence. Why do wealthy people contribute to buy homes in high risk areas?

Same reason why these wealthy people continue to build in Florida and other coastal locations hit by hurricanes each year.

EVERYONE'S property insurance and auto insurance will be going up the next few years because of this tragedy. These insurance companies aren't going to be paying out for lost properties and autos without help from every American who buys insurance.

Mathieson is still very handsome but the constant mugging of the camera is a total turn off. His children must be so embarrassed.

Cam's a lovely guy but he reads the big print (stage directions) in the script. he needs to get into a class.

He's a LOVELY and KIND man.

I can't buy that it's karma when James Woods's house burns down because it's NOT karma when Cam's house goes.

Mandy Moore.

R54 Oh, that's sad. She's such a nice girl.

Sandra Lee :(

Roman Polanski's house.

This weekend come to Malibu, we're having huge fire sale at the mawl!

Billy Crystal

Eugene Levy

John Goodman

I thought Suzanne moved somewhere south.

Way south.

Thots & prayers.

Poor Mandy Moore. She seems like such a doll.

One of Leonardo DiCaprio’s houses burned down.

💔

So sad.

In a weird way, it's kind of comforting to see that even they aren't protected. It makes them seem less special. No amount of wealth or resources saved them. It's still sad, but the fact they're sharing it makes them seem like everyone else affected (except they have a lot more resources to bounce back, of course, let's not forget that).

R65 Shut up peasant.

I thought Suzanne was getting fingered behind the fountains in heaven.

Are DLers rushing with water to the former house of Vivian Vance?

[quote]Adam Brody & Leighton Meister

I thought this thread was about celebrities.

R65 nailed it. Thread closed

Paris Hilton home in Malibu gone. No word about Barbecue Streisand or Cher.

Kathy Griffin lives in the area. Is her house okay?

my rooms are on fire

CNN — As at least four wildfires rage around Los Angeles, numerous members of the Hollywood community have been impacted, including Billy Crystal, Mandy Moore, Anna Faris and Ricki Lake.

I wonder how many of the people who lost their home and property were fully insured?

Correct me if I'm wrong but if the properties or homes were mortgaged, they had to be insured. I believe that's a requirement from every lending institution these days. No ?

Once the mortgage is paid off it is not. I bet most of the celebrities paid for their property in cash. I guess my point is since insurance companies are more reluctant to cover homes that are in high hurricane or flooding or fire risk zones, they may not want to cover these areas.

They should reclaim the burned out land & put in bike lanes, outdoor kitchens & gyms (stuff that won't easily catch fire the next time around).

Cary Elwes. He's a lovely man, I'm so sad to hear about this.

Cher and Babs haven't posted anything on IG....I hope they're ok!!!

Maybe hunkered down together!!!!

Shawn Mendes has burst into 🔥

Ralf Moeller who played Conan The Barbarian for 1 season in the late 90s on tv (& also starred in the famous Gladiator filming 2000) had to flee the fires but I don't know what town he lived in.

R80 I would rather go down in flames.

Sure, R78.

And what part of a desert city of almost 4 million during global warming would you NOT take for dog walkers, you deep thinker, you?

The dumbshits are out tonight.

R38, Gelson’s in Pacific Palisades is a total loss. Saw video on Twitter/X.

Cher was on Kimmel last night - he mentioned the fires in his opening, but nothing was said during the interview by either Kimmel or Cher. Just the other day (Jan 5) marked the 27th anniversary of Sonny's tragic death.

What about Dead-and in hell-Ryan O'Neal's beach place?

[quote] Once the mortgage is paid off it is not.

So I was correct - while the property is mortgaged, they have to have it insured. I knew once it was paid off, it is optional by the homeowner.

As for celebrities, I'm not sure how many plop down cash for their home - why give up all their cash in one shot when they can mortgage through a bank and use the bank's money ? Especially with rates so low over the past few years. Their own money could be earning higher returns in other investments. I've always heard wealthy people (celebrities and non-celebs) never use their own money to buy anything - they always use the bank's money.

Is this Biden’s Katrina?

Business Insider reports Ben Affleck lost his $20.5M home which he just bought in July, located in Pacific Palisades.

Wow, Cameron mathison has a rocking body!!! How old is that hunk?

Jennifer Lopez must be so happy

I’m seeing some people on social media enjoying the schadenfreude of all these celebrities losing their houses. On one hand, yes, in many cases these people have the means to keep living and will financially survive it, but the truth is that it is devastating to lose your home (especially in a fire) no matter how much money you have or how lavish it was or wasn’t. Losing your domestic space like that is traumatizing and people shouldn’t be reveling in that.

People are assholes R93.

Is Demi Moore's house safe?

For now it is. But it in danger, girl.

Poor Anthony Hopkins. 87 years old and his house burns down.

I think Demi lives over by Lake Hollywood, so she's probably fine. I think Dolly has one over there as well.

Denise Crosby lost her home.

The first and last time she’s ever brought the house down, I’m afraid.

Is Anna Faris really a "star'?

r101, She was when she was with Pratt. Then she fell apart.

Has anyone heard from Colton?

My heart aches for all of those celebrities who have lost their homes.

When this has all settled down it would be nice to have a full and comprehensive list of all the celebrities who have lost home, starting with A list celebs working down towards the Z list.

It is still too early to do this as for now they deserve our thoughts and prayers.

It's going to be interesting to see how long the rebuilding takes. CA has some of the most strict codes/permit rules. Hopefully one of these codes is an integrated OUTDOOR house sprinkler system!!!!

What passes as celebrity today is depressing.

Sorry to hear about John Goodman and Anthony Hopkins losing their homes. But not Miles Teller, really. Can’t fucking stand him.

I wonder if their insurance gets cancelled.

Because they want to kill us all R12

My house is GONE!! I lost EVERYTHING. Well, not really - but I could have.

I do not want public outdoor kitchens. No sir.

Has Meghan Markle pretended to be a victim yet?

They have fire insurance as do all southern Californian residents especially rich ones. Feel bad for the loss of sentimental items of course.

Why aren't the homes made of brick and cement in California?? I know in Florida due to the hurricanes they have mandates for homes.

The dumbshits like you will just try to rebuild for the next batch of fires R84.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again & expecting different results.

We're tired of hearing about wildfires in the area.

The rest of the area is just a ticking time bomb anyway.

How many LA area buildings have caught fire in the past half-century compared to other places?

Boo hoo R114 The celebs could've had their sentimental items in other homes/safety deposit boxes instead of this ticking timebomb area.

R46 "Aaron Rodgers owns a Malibu beach home."

He's a flamer anyway so they won't notice the fire

R1 James Woods

Employment insurance gone and NOW this!

R115: Those pesky earthquakes.

James Woods house was not insured.

Diane Warren lost her beach house. She was live on The View this morning in NYC. I wonder how she felt being on the opposite side of the country as all hell was breaking loose in Cali. She tweeted today: "Warren also reassured her 249K social media followers that the chickens, ducks, goats, cows, and horses living at her rescue ranch 'are okay, which is the most important thing. Stay safe everyone."

Where are the photos and news stories from the neighborhood emergency shelters? I want to see Paris Hilton sleeping on a mat at the local high school gym. And Diane Warren eating a hot dog and potato chips from a Styrofoam plate. And Ben Affleck wearing some ill-fitting used clothes donated by a local church group,

r119 Japan also has earthquakes and they use cement. That can't be the reason.

Adam Brody is welcome to stay at my place for as long as it takes to recover and rebuild.

[quote]Diane Warren lost her beach house.

Maybe it will inspire her to write a decent song.

R91 Cameron mathison says he was born in 1969, so that makes him 55. However, over the years, many sources found documentation he was born in 1964, so that would really make him 60. I have a feeling it's closer to 60 and he shaved off five years when he first got started in the 90s.

Before anyone asks for "proof" from the past 30 years, I don't have them. So let me rephrase: "Many sources have claimed to have had documentation over the past 30 years on Mathison, saying he was born in 1964."

[quote]My heart aches for all of those celebrities who have lost their homes.

Really ? My heart aches for EVERYONE who has lost their homes. Celebrities, non-celebrities, rich, poor, young, old. It doesn't matter who or where they are in life - these people have lost everything no matter who they are. No amount of fame, money or insurance can bring back what they've really lost.

A reporter has said on MSNBC private insurance companies have not been renewing or writing new insurance policies for years - they have left California. Most of these homes have insurance through the state of California (The Fair Plan), and it's not going to cover much. She mentioned these people who still have private companies insuring them have 'bare basics' which doesn't cover much. These homeowners now have to document every single thing which they lost in the fire, and see if they are covered for it (with whatever policy they have and with whom).

And as I said in another post yesterday - she reiterated everyone in this country will see their insurance rates rise drastically because of this disaster. It's a real tragedy.

FAIR Plan = You-shouldn’t-live-here insurance. They have it in other states too like Louisiana that have hurricane risk.

R116's next post showed the full effects of her drinking even more clearly.

Did you get help at URL?

SJP speaks to reporters amidst widespread evacuations...

This isn’t a time to be horsing around!

R133 - is SJP the one wearing the nursing bra on her face standing behind the reporter?

Hunter Biden has had sufficient.

Buck never would have been in LA.

What about Courteney Cox? Isn't her house in Malibu on the beach?

Is DL fave Eileen Davidson okay? She’s a famous Malibu person!

His clothes burned off.

r138, she sold that house years ago. I'm sure it's gone now.

[quote][R19] Babs is taking refuge in her subterranean shopping centre.

Yes, and she's covered herself in frozen yogurt from the dispensaries down there to protect against the heat.

Sorry that I’m ill informed, but I gave up the news networks after the election. I’m looking online, but it’s unclear—are all of the Malibu beachfront houses gone?

At least on one stretch of PCH, yes. But I don’t think the fire reached all of Malibu.

I forget, what did James Woods do that made him so loathed?

^ MAGA blowhard.

I have sympathy for every single person, famous or not, but I would love to see Meghan Markle’s place burn! That fucking cunt.

He compared Call Me By Your Name to child porn, r145. I doubt he would have said that if the characters were opposite gender heteros. He's a cunt.

I dislike both Sussexes.

Your cheese is way, way off the cracker, r147.

[quote]I would love to see Meghan Markle’s place burn! That fucking cunt.

Seek help. There must be support groups for racist klan grannies in whichever liverpool hovel you live.

Some weirdo here likes James Woods (actual lunatic who is into teens) over Meghan Markle (earnest new age TV actress who doesn’t like the British tabloids).

OK freak.

Was Malibu Colony affected?

OP- Adam Brody is good looking. I would let him sleep on my couch. I would let him sleep in my bed but only if I had access to his COCK, BALLS and ASS.

Any word on DL fave Eve Plumb's Malibu beach house?

Perimeter of the Palisades fire looks like it’s still ~10 miles from Barbra’s compound

Home owner’s insurance doesn’t cover wildfire, and a lot of people have had their fire insurance summarily cancelled in recent months and years. Semi-related, my parents had their own insurance cancelled because Farmers thought they saw a loose shingle on their ten year old roof. They live in the South, but not in a disaster prone area. Insurance is just. going to get worse and worse until it’s completely broken.

🎶 Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. 🎶

"Fire hot."

No one asked if I'm ok.

[quote] Some weirdo here likes James Woods (actual lunatic who is into teens) over Meghan Markle (earnest new age TV actress who doesn’t like the British tabloids) OK freak.

This is was I don’t like about Meghanstans. No argument is too pathetic for them to try to score some cheap points with it.

KGs

Let's not exaggerate - the stretch of Malibu homes along PCH that burned were at Las Tunas beach, which abuts Pacific Palisades. All of those structures are gone, but I don't believe the fire has stretched westward yet, to Big Rock Beach and that area. Hopefully I'm not wrong, it's a shame to lose that beachfront property.

r49 Dylan lives way up on Point Dume, they are not in the fire zone (yet). He's fine for now. r90 Affleck's new house in Brentwood is near the current fire perimeter but not in it, he's fine for now. That article mentioned celebrities living in the general area, not those who actually lost homes.

r152 Malibu Colony is a few miles westward of the fire zone, they aren't out of the woods but aren't in imminent danger.

Christian Bale owns a ranch in the back of Sullivan Canyon that appears to be just next to the current fire zone/perimeter, very close. There are other celebs in that rural area, they're probably the most famous people at risk.

...and I revise my post at r163, the fires did reach Big Rock Beach in Malibu as Moonshadows was there, and is now gone. It's crazy to think of much expensive property has been lost in this.

Well if Babs’ home furnishings are smoke damaged, at least she will be able to quickly refurnish from the mall in the basement.

Open your homes

That's a lot of homes. I read Fire Weather by John Vaillant last year. It's about the 2016 Fort McMurray wildfire in Canada and he says that these kind of fires are only going to become more common because of climate change.

Archive link to [R589]'s article from the hateful, divisive Daily Mail if you'd rather not give them clickdollars.

I mean r168. They were probably r589 on the other thread. Sorry for the pasting error.

I'm friends with comedian Tim Heidecker and his wife Marilyn. They have evacuated their home in Glendale. John C Reilly has lost his home. It's gone.

Perhaps the best way to protect your home is to have a large moat surrounding your property.

How many displaced people are Harry and Megan going to put up?

And for what your raise, r173, is why they should have edited that language out of their unnecessary statement.

For all I know, maybe they are sheltering a friend who has lost everything, but that just sounded stupid and condescending.

There are a lot of people in the area who gave list everything and won’t be able to afford to rebuild.

Some families have lived there for decades. What will they do now? This is terrible.

[quote]For all I know, maybe they are sheltering a friend who has lost everything, but that just sounded stupid and condescending.

Obvious PR basics would be to say that. And they surely have expensive PR advisors. But they did not say that. They are very out of touch.

Have you ever been to Malibu? It's gorgeous but I saw the houses on the ocean side of the PCH and thought "How the fuck do these houses stay up?"

Honestly I thought a storm would come along and destroy them but i guess it's fire.

[quote] OP- Adam Brody is good looking. I would let him sleep on my couch. I would let him sleep in my bed but only if I had access to his COCK, BALLS and ASS.

Thanks for letting us know. Such an appropriate comment to make when someone has just had his house burn to the ground.

My pussy stinks!

MY Palisades home is a pile of smoldering ash and I only had time to grab Mother's Emmy before racing out the door. Did any of you cunts think about mentioning ME in your little thread?

My heart only aches for Paradise CA.

Where is Warren Beatty?

I hope the wooden chest containing all the secrets and scandals of Hollywood compiled by the late Roddy McDowell didn’t erupt in flames.

And only the plastic recycle bin survived at R106!! Our son is saved!

r172 a moat wouldn't help with those winds they were dealing with - the fire was able to spread so viciously because there were embers whizzing about horizontally

Oops.

Yes, in 60+ MPH winds, embers can travel up to 5 miles away.

So when they rebuild, do most of them choose completely new designs?

More celebs

[quote]FAIR Plan = You-shouldn’t-live-here insurance. They have it in other states too like Louisiana that have hurricane risk.

We have it in southern New England, too. If you own property on Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard or Cape Cod - good luck finding private insurance. No one wants you. You have to go through the insurance the state has to offer you.

The winds are really whipping up again over here. We’ve had some power outages,, but not as bad as yesterday and the evening before.

*IF* the Cal Fire map I'm looking at is accurate....it would appear that about a dozen oceanfront homes, east of Big Rock Drive, are still standing. Fran Drescher's house is in that strand of homes.

If that pocket of homes really did survive, I'm guessing it's probably because they are directly opposite that heavily graded section of hillside (with the retaining wall) east of Big Rock Drive, on which there was far less vegetation compared to a 1/2 mile in either direction. (mostly just grasses, with relatively few of those highly flammable/explosive bushes & shrubs).

See: Google street view, 19734 Pacific Coast Highway.

r182 Beatty and Bening live way up on Mulholland, in the 12400 block next to Coldwater Canyon Park. There's an LA Fire Station directly across the street from them, luckily.

I'm amazed at the number of perfectly pristine stop signs everywhere in the midst of smoking rubble and burned out buildings.

It's weird. They aren't even blackened by the ash, buckled from the heat or bent from the wind.

Maybe houses should be made from stop signs? They seem to survive perfectly fine.

[QUOTE]So when they rebuild, do most of them choose completely new designs?

They should start with completely new landscaping using drought and fire resistant plants.

The re-construction will be tricky given earthquake codes, and that such building materials will be so much more expensive. Oh, and if Trump gets starts his deportations, good luck finding contractors since estimates are upwards of 50% construction workers are undocumented.

Didn't she just move to Mexico?

R218 Thank god. I was starting to worry.

I have been thinking. Celebrities have done so much for us in our lifetimes, working hard and keeping us entertained, can't we give something back to them.

They're actually doll's shoes, r229. If you click on the pic, you'll see the legs on the doll with their old-fashioned, jointed legs at the knees.

She's into these over-the-top, miniature doll shoes...she posts them all the time.

Will Rogers’ home: "The actor’s ranch house, part of Will Rogers State Historic Park, was destroyed in the Palisades fire. In the 1920s Rogers built a 31-room home with 11 bathrooms, a guesthouse, a golf course, stables and a corral on about 360 acres. In 1944 the compound and grounds became a park and museum after his widow, Betty, donated them to the state. “The Rogers family is devastated by the loss of the California ranch and the overwhelming loss of the community,” Jennifer Rogers-Etcheverry, the actor’s great-granddaughter, said in a statement. “Our hearts go out to all those neighbors who have lost their homes.”

Topanga Ranch Motel: The historic row of rustic cabins, built in 1919 and once owned by William Randolph Hearst, was one of the last remaining examples of early 20th century bungalow motels. The motel had fallen on hard times, but in September, the state park system and partners promised to refurbish the motel rather than demolish it. “California State Parks mourns the loss of these treasured natural and cultural resources, and our hearts go out to everyone impacted by the devastating fires in the Los Angeles area,” State Parks Director Armando Quintero said in a statement.

Theatre Palisades: The theater, founded in 1963 by three TV writers, appeared in news reports to have been largely destroyed in the wildfire. The organization’s website said that all operations at its 125-seat community theater are suspended until further notice.

AT the link you will find some incredibly harrowing photos and video of the reality of the fires.

I'm praying for the Eames house. It's in the Palisades.

The newest fire, the Sunset Fire, is less than a mile from the Hollywood Bowl.

Sunset fire was contained.

"In the race to get away in Pacific Palisades, roadways became impassable when scores of people abandoned their vehicles and fled on foot." This is no joke

Anna Farts

R24 Quite a list of celeb followers...

Can we look at a comprehensive list instead of scrolling through all these posts?

True r121, no one is talking about where all the people have gone... are there shelters? do they have other homes in the area? did they leave town???

Dollfoot thread

[quote]Perhaps the best way to protect your home is to have a large moat surrounding your property.

If you were a millionaire movie star, that is a really good idea, but not because it would keep the fire away by itself. With strong enough winds and hot enough conditions, embers will blow vast distances. And I know if you've got eucalypts around, in a big enough fire the heat will make their leaves release eucalyptus oil into the air and the fire will skip across the treetops burning on oil, which makes it super-fast and terrifying. I'm not sure how many other trees have that property.

But going back to the moat, if you had plenty of $$ you could organise to hook the moat up to a system with its own generator that would continuously pump water all over the roof and the outside of the house throughout immediate fire danger, and to which you could hook up your own high-pressure hose to cope with stray embers. The key problems with fighting big wildfires are electricity and water being unavailable. You could use your pool, but it's not enough water to last very long.

i'd fuck Adam Brody in his moat

Miles Teller and his wife will probably move in with Taylor Swift.

Milo Ventimiglia lost his house in LA due to the wildfires when he is so close to being a father.

I noticed non Americans tend to get very angry that US homes are made of wood. Like I get the criticism, but it is weird how non Americans seem to be very angry over things don't affect them.

R248 shouldn't extend her anecdotal evidence collected at the bodega to a general rule.

Because it's STUPID.

I don't think they get angry as much as they don't understand why.

Mandy Moore getting dragged for GFM for her in-laws who lost their home and Mandy telling people to fuck off.

(Although, he's probably not far from the truth on that point.)

Jennifer Tilly evacuated to Commerce Casino.

The Palisades fire has crept very close to the wealthier area that abuts Brentwood. Conan O'Brien lives on Amalfi, the Cal Fire website (an excellent source) has the fire line straight across his backyard, right up to his house. It looks like a couple of his neighbors lost their entire properties.

This reminds me of the old headline, “Nuclear War Ravages Earth — Michael Jackson, Others Atomized.”

[Quote] Looks like Paris Hilton's place went up in flames

Yes, the reporters covering it on the scene would jump every time one of her size 11 shoes exploded.

Mel Gibson perhaps has received a foretaste of what his miserable MAGA Fake-Catholic hell will be like.

Burning sugar tits and his smoldering pussy visible from behind.

Karma?

I'm not a fan of some people like James Woods and Mel Gibson but they have my sincere condolences for losing their homes. I don't get any pleasure of people I don't care for dealing with tragedy.

I can't stand their politics either r262, but still feel sorry for them. Woods, especially, as he isn't nearly as wealthy as Gibson and said that he recently had his fire insurance policy cancelled. He's nearly 80 years old and it will be hard for him to re-build.

Thousands are without insurance in many cases their cars and their homes have been destroyed I'm sure that Mel Gibson and James Woods have insurance and the money to rebuild and probably homes elsewhere

Archive link to NY Post story above if you'd rather not give clickdollars to people who love Trump and hate gays.

Maybe Mel and James should just move to a shithole state like Oklahoma. That's really more their type of people anyway.

James Woods DOESN'T have insurance on his house, he said.

Ha.

I might have a wee bit of sympathy for Woods, but Mel Gibson has a long history of being a horrible fucking person. I don't feel bad for him at all.

I was shocked they even live in Los Angeles. They must like to feel like "outsiders." Makes em feel "speshul."

Are other folks in the LA area experiencing lower than normal water pressure? I know they were having issues with fire hydrants having no water due to the amount being used.

I'm trying to figure out whether it's a me problem or a them problem.

They enjoy the gadfly thing.

r264 - what a ridiculous thing to be sad about: "wish I'd grabbed my wedding dress."

How f'ing stupid.

If people don't have or can't get insurance for their homes, are we going to see a considerable exodus from California in the coming years? How long is it going to take to rebuild both houses and businesses? Some of the roads need to be rebuilt and most of the ground has been reduced to ash and rubble. How big of a landfill is going to be needed for 30,000 acres of debris?

And there was already such a major housing shortage in the LA area as it is. Where are all of these now-homeless people going to go, especially if they can't or aren't able to re-build where they had been. Talk about a severe real estate crunch.

Many of the people displaced from Palisades and Altadena work in entertainment, not just acting but writing, casting, producing, etc. This will affect that industry.

Good luck finding a contractor in the next year.. They will be booked out for months. However, not sure if they can sell these properties so quickly. They will have to be willing to build a house without a loan and all cash because no one will insure this mess

DEPORT ALL 'A THEM MEXICANS, PRESIDENT TRUMP! ITLL REALLY STICK IT TO THEM DUMBOCRATS IN COMMIEFORNIA WHEN THEY AIN'T GOT NOBODY TO REBUILD THEM HOUSES!

R255 I know Jennifer Tilly like her poker, but there aren't there better hotels for her?

This sooty, smoky air is makin my cooter extra itchy y’all!!

r203, these wealthy fucks to need fema assistance. Though of course they will get it. and tons and tons of it.

*don't need

[quote]Woods, especially, as he isn't nearly as wealthy as Gibson and said that he recently had his fire insurance policy cancelled. He's nearly 80 years old and it will be hard for him to re-build.

Whomp, whomp

I think in these difficult times it's important to remember that the only thing we take with us is the love we give.

Most of them have more than one house, can't feel very sorry for them.

Karma Kweens need to shove their enormous ignorance up their phony asses.

There's a spreadsheet going around the music business right now of artists and industry people who lost their homes. Here are a few:

Chris Shiflett of Foo Fighters

Stevie Aiello of 30 Seconds To Mars

Taylor Goldsmith (Dawes) and Mandy Moore

Greg Wells - record producer for Adele, Ariana Grande, Michael Buble, Twenty One Pilots, Weezer, et al.

Jimmy Tamborello - The Postal Service

r252 Why would they upset you?

[quote] Open your homes

I tried that with Dawn Wells back in 2018. It did not go well.

You can substitute the thousands who are not celebrities and perhaps show a bit of sorrow rather than the glee that is supposed to be funny or witty on this thread because famous people somehow deserve this kind of tragedy.

Losing your home, pets perhaps, possessions, heirlooms never mind the financial devastation is probably second only to dying. This thread’s cynicism and cruelty only serves to help me understand the rise of MAGA and dehumanization of others (including famous people) by their fellow man.

I’m 71 and have been amazed since the rise of MAGA of how terrible many people are. It’s all on full display on this thread. And barely a word on the causes of all this.

r263 He was partying over Christmas with MAGA wealthy LA socialite Margie Perenchio at her huge home . Perhaps she could help him out?

perhaps celebrities should be seen and not heard

Apparently there is at least one credible suspicion one fire by an arsonist. It is unlikely the fires started from that, but it likely was a contributing factor in spreading it more.

I'm in Los Angeles in a crappy (in the sense that it's cold in the winter; hot in the summer NO a/c) one bedroom apartment in LA. I've envied all those folks in the Palisades, Bev. Hills, Malibu, etc. with their fabulous homes and views and community.

Why have they gotten breaks that I haven't? etc.

Now, I'm the one who feels like a millionaire. I'm more in the city and the fires haven't hit me directly; lots of soot and burnt air.

R292 Those mllionaires have plenty of other homes or money to go elsewhere and not breathe in all that soot too. Don't kid yourself.

r290 except they have a suspect in custody already, last I read...

Today's update: "The allegation the man started a fire has been determined to be unfounded, officials said."

Jeff Bridges and Candy Spelling

Link

Yes, R294 I knew that. He's been detained in regard to the Kenneth fire but none of the other fires have been deemed suspicious

California Governor Gavin Newsom wrote on X on Thursday night: "The #KennethFire is 1,000 acres and now 35 percent contained. The forward rate of spread has been stopped.

Barbra posted on Facebook late yesterday basically indicating she was completely unscathed by the fires (though sad for her neighbors and grateful to the LAFD).

I think Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson were among the most prominent residents of Pacific Palisades unless they've relocated in recent years. Any news about them?

TMZ says Hanks and Spielberg properties are still standing.

Hanks lives on Casale Road, in a massive mansion overlooking Rustic Canyon and Will Rogers State Park. His house was spared, however the home directly adjacent-above and to the north of him, at 1601 San Onofre Drive, burnt all the way down.

The massive compound at 1790 Alta Mura Road, two house above/north of Hanks and Wilson, one of the largest and most spectacular homes in the area, owned by the family of the late Warner Brothers Records mogul Mo Ostin, is gone.

For those who are interested (and need a break from seeing all the carnage), a great article with photos from AD from 1989, highlighting Spielberg's estate on Amalfi Drive.

R297 HA HA Candy, you cunt!

I ‘ve been thinking about all of the writers, runners, sound people, lighting people- all the people behind the cameras- who lost their homes to these fires.

The entertainment industry is going to take a huge hit from this. Too many behind the scenes people have lost everything.

It’s really awful.

r302

[quote]1601 San Onofre Drive, burnt all the way down.

Is that confirmed? I was looking at the CalFire site and site it was in the highlighted zone. It's a really incredible house by Ardie Tavangarian, who always manages to do modern well. It recently went up for rent for $450k/mo after selling for $83M three years ago.

Was Bel-Air affected by the fires?

To follow up on r302: the now-destroyed property at 1601 San Onofre, above Tom Hanks's place, was the most expensive home in Pacific Palisades, valued at $78 million. Owned by tech guru Austin Russell per the Daily Mail.

r306 see the photos at this link and the next, for confirmation. Cal Fire map shows it's in the bright orange burned zone.

[quote]Mandy Moore getting dragged for GFM for her in-laws who lost their home and Mandy telling people to fuck off. No I'm not going to link the Daily Mail and trigger that ridiculous disclaimer.

I think a lot of people overestimate actor wealth. Someone like Mandy Moore is "comfortable" rich, not "hey, here's a million" to my in-laws rich. It's "I have a mortgage and without insurance I'm fucked like everyone else" rich. It could be the case that she's already given or will be giving her in-laws what she can, and like many others do, asking for assistance on their behalf.

BTW, you can use a url shortener to link DM without the obnoxious disclaimer.

Unconfirmed, but the Cal Fire map is also showing the massive estate at 1800 Alta Mura is gone as well. 22,000+ square feet, with spectacular 360 views of all of LA: Will Rogers Park, Hollywood Hills and DTLA, and all the way down to the Pacific. Owned by entrepreneur Dennis Tito, the first paying citizen in space back in 2001.

Pete Repete has too much time on her hands

How come the house above Tom Hanks burned, but none of the other houses around it were harmed? They other houses must have had private firefighters protecting their properties, or they sprayed their grounds with fire retardant.

Did the (former) Reagan home on Pacific Palisades get burned?

The Reagans lived in Bel-Air, not PP.

The facts behind this concept are buried in the 3,000 posts in this thread but it's fascinating. One of the houses in the path of the fire didn't burn because the owner used the concept of Passive House Principles when it was built.

I'll post a more concise explanation below.

An architect explains why the house likely didn't burn.

r312 How can you tell from the map if specific structures have burned? All I can see is an outline of the fire perimeter, but that doesn't mean that every structure within it burned. Is there a way to drill down to specific properties or addresses?

How much more in construction costs would someone have to pay for a house in r323?

$75 dollars.

Beautiful words from John Mayer (whose house is unaffected)

[quote] johnmayer This is the most valuable thing I own. It's a folder of photos of my father, spanning his life from being a baby, an educator, a husband and a father. It's the only evidence of his life that will exist over time. These are the "documents" you read about people taking from their homes. When you hear someone say they've lost everything in a fire, this is much of that everything, if not all of it. Those who say they'll be okay still have their folders and their albums. Those who are inconsolable have lost them. Just behind the immeasurable loss of life is the loss of the proof of life. I don't practice prayer but tonight I will say one for everyone who no longer has these items. It's not about the art and the collectibles. It's the photos, the letters, the class rings, the eyeglasses and the things we keep to remind us that those we loved were here. May those who have lost so much find some semblance of hope and support from their family and friends. Stay safe, look out for yourself and for one another, and trust that humanity and all it entails, though sometimes hard to see, is alive and well. This is truly devastating.

Has anyone checked on David Cassidy? He lived in the Palisades for years.

r325 Passive House construction is still rare in the US and is mostly consigned to higher end construction. But the premium seems to be around 10%.

r328 NOW we know why Susan Dey never commented about his passing!

R327 John Mayer is a Douche Supreme, but those really are touching words. And he is so right.

Eric Braeden of The Young and the Restless lost his home of 45 years.

I wonder if there will be a push for more monolithic dome structures to be built in California when the rebuilding starts. The problem is there's currently an enormous amount of red tape involved in the permitting for some reason.

While a bit sci-fi looking, they are the only structure that can withstand tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, fire, and even automatic weaponry. They're extremely energy efficient and resilient. Plus, they're wildly cheap to build and building can be completed in under a week.

Apparently living in dome structures is also extremely calming and centering. They're the housing of the future in extreme climate change.

r333, is that made of concrete or what?

R334 Tons of recycled shitbras.

R334 There is more information about its design and materials on this site. There's also a ton on YouTube videos about them. I fell into a bit of a rabbit hole researching them after hurricane Helene hit.

Some of them, like the one on this page look very Kubrick-esque, but you can make them look any style you' like. You can make them look like a Malibu beach house or a charming little Hobbit cottage. I think the only limiting thing aestethically would be potentially needing to have a lot of furniture custom-made.

"A forest fire ran over a Monolithic Dome home in California. The home was unscathed. An EF-4 tornado struck a dome in Ohio. The dome saved the owners’ lives. The eye of a category five hurricane passed over a home in Florida. The homeowner sat safely inside and filmed it. There are dozens, maybe hundreds, of stories where a Monolithic Dome survived a disaster. We don’t hear about most of them because the house remained undamaged. Is it a disaster if nothing breaks?

The key to the Monolithic Dome’s strength is the double-curved concrete shell. When an object strikes the dome wall, the forces distribute across the entire structure. The outer air-form membrane and polyurethane foam act as additional buffers and can capture flying debris."

Something in the thread reminded me that the Getty Museum was built for situations like this. Everything inside it is safe.

R337 Well, lets hope so because the Getty Center is now in a mandatory evacuation zone.

I heard Babs volunteered to store Irises in her mall...conveniently, she had a vacant space named "Irises!"

I hope Susan Dey's house is still standing. She hasn't commented.

You misspelled "Susan Dey's trailer".

That pickled James Woods was mistaken, his house still stands. We need a new thread for celebrities who are too dumb (or drunk) to recognize their own damn houses.

R336 this is super interesting!

Caitlyn Jenner is in Malibu. Is she OK?

Steiner, a lawyer and former head of Waste Management, Inc., in Houston, said he believes that his property’s ultra-sturdy construction — likely designed to protect it from earthquakes — saved it from the Palisades Fire that destroyed the homes all around it.

“It’s stucco and stone with a fireproof roof,’’ he said, adding that it also includes pilings “like 50 feet into the bedrock’’ to keep it steady when powerful waves crash into the seawall below it.

For the rest of his life that guy is going to be surrounded by a massive building site with burn out surroundings.

The owner doesn’t live there, R347. He will probably sell it.

That house will sell for a fraction of its previous worth.

R341 every word of that article is made up

“‘I’ve lost everything but I’ll be damned if this crisis is going to make me fat again.’“

Tori Spelling seems like the smartest one in this mess. Living in rentals and trailer parks for the last 20 years, and she hasn't lost a thing.

Rosie O does the same thing (rentals, but trailer parks)

BBC reporting that Jeff Bridges lost the family home he grew up in and inherited, and that Julia-Louis Dreyfus lost her 'homes'.

Barbra is a national treasure, I’ll always be a fan and verklempt for weeks when she dies. Glad she didn’t lose her home, but that indoor mall is absolutely absurd and you bitches are right for hilariously pillorying her over it.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s house burned down

You can see it in her son Charlie Hall’s videos

Tyler Henry told Ricki Lake that she was going to have a fire at her house when she was recently on his new Netflix show. Tyler is a legit psychic.

R327 I feel for those who have lost everything. But most of these people have incredible resources to help them recoup that loss.

[quote] Tyler is a legit psychic.

Grow up.

The last sentence...

Only a true psychic could have predicted a wildfire in California.

Spooky.

Poor Eric Braeden. At 84 how will he rebuild his life?

R362 - maybe he could hold up for the near term in his studio trailer like Victoria Chase did on Hot In Cleveland.

Nikki is going to rebuild Victor’s house for him. He’ll be fine. You got that?????

Where was this sentiment from Hollywood as the good people of North Carolina & Tennessee lost everything? Hundreds died and many are still buried in the mud. Those poor people received nothing other than a notice that FEMA ran out of money and they were eligible to receive a one time payment of up to $700. Many are still in tents and make shift shelters in the sub freezing temps. Biden never visited or offered help. The Amish and good samaritan groups from around the country, ended up doing more for them than anyone in our government or Hollywood actors

[quote] Biden never visited or offered help.

Poor brainwashed moron. I’d feel sorry for you if there weren’t so many of you that your irrational hatred is going to destroy the nation.

Jennifer Tilly upgraded and is headed to Las Vegas.

r365 Biden visited, aerial tour of the devistationa and pledges federal support from Raleigh disaster headquarters. Also on FEMA

R365 is obviously living on a planet where only the MAGA stuff gets through.

R370, he’s really angry that he’s stuck with a moron for the next four years.

[quote]Those poor people received nothing other than a notice that FEMA ran out of money and they were eligible to receive a one time payment of up to $700.

Trump plans to end FEMA, but you're criticizing Biden??? Republicans fight disaster aid at every turn, and they will fight giving aid to California for the fires.

R77, LMFAO! The wealthy elites in California will surely get more than $700.

The $700 is not the limit on aid. It’s the floor.

[quote] Those poor people received nothing other than a notice that FEMA ran out of money and they were eligible to receive a one time payment of up to $700.

Bullshit. FEMA has already provided $190 million in aid to North Carolina.

Ooo! I love that, r336!

I’m not much of a “futurist”, but I really love the look of that. It looks inviting. Like a cocoon.

No, R379. We know this because he survived.

R365 So you're saying the Amish gave more to the NC victims than FEMA LOL?

R365 So you're blaming right-wing actors like Kevin Sorbo, James Woods, Dean Cain, Sly Stallone, Arnold S., etc. as well?

Schwarzenegger is not right wing.

James Woods false alarm.

Schwarzenegger is a liberal Republican type. I remember he did some docuseries for NatGeo regarding climate change years ago. He said in the series hat he was disappointed in his fellow Republicans for not supporting alternative forms of energy like solar panels, wind etc.

R365 is so set on disinformation that he/she/it lies even about the dollar amount of the initial FEMA payments. It’s $750, not $700. Others have pointed out the rest of your lies.

[quote] I almost feel like it would be worse if your house were the only house to survive. It's surrounded by a Mad Max hellscape now. Plus the air is cancerous. I don't see how MH could ever live there again.

I get what you're saying, but at least all of the stuff *inside* his house is still available to him. Not sure what condition all the house's contents are in, but at least he can sort through things and try to salvage what he can.

You're right, R391. That John Mayer tweet sums it up. It's the memories, the photos, the family treasures that are priceless. He was very very blessed to have the ability to even sort through all of that and hopefully it's not damaged by smoke.

*He meaning Mark Hamill.

Some people are talking about survivors' guilt, feeling guilty that their home DIDN'T get destroyed. It's such a hard situation for everyone.

I wouldn’t feel too bad about David Zaslav’s mansion getting destroyed. Dude is the Anti-Christ. He ruined CNN and HBO.

This is the second house Ricki Lake has lost to fire now. So all that fraud "psychic" did was read her Wikipedia. He even prefaced his fake prediction with "I think this may have already happened..."

To lose one house to a fire is unfortunate.

To lose two....reeks of carelessness.

R1 and R21 -- Bizarrely, after he sobbed about it on CNN, it seems like James Woods's house didn't burn down after all. It survived... "a miracle!"

If you werent too busy switching accounts, you'd have seen that was already posted.

I can't stand Woods's politics, but he's in his late 70's, alone in life (he does mention a "wife" although I don't see any notation that he's married) and had to flee his home due to a catastrophic fire. He truly believed it was gone, based on what he saw when he left and what his neighbors told him. I don't blame him on getting emotional over it on tv, or being overjoyed and grateful that his house survived. And I'm sure there is plenty of smoke damage to contend with, at his home and any of the other standing houses.

[quote] alone in life

I can't imagine why.

They are fucking actors, they can cry in an nano second, fake people....never trust these cunts.

James Woods was photographed some years back with a woman in her early 30s and she was listed as fiancee. Maybe, they have married.

I think Woods is one of those actors who never became a mega wealthy and the house might be one of the few major assets he has and he was probably overjoyed because it's still standing and he doesn't have to deal with rebuilding or finding another home.

R401 What are you, a bitter nine-year-old girl? "Switching accounts?" What does that even mean? Is that what you do, "Anonymous"? How fucking insipid, but by all means, enjoy your conspiracy theories. And, knowing that your type gets its panties into a twist over such "crimes," I did search "Woods" and no such update showed up. Sorry for the many valuable seconds this robbed of your productive life. Hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

Can confirm that Fran Drescher's house on PCH survived (although I would imagine there's some smoke damage). I saw an aerial shot of it on the local news.

How do you remedy smoke damage? I would imagine everything would need to be repainted in side, probably anything fabric thrown away, hard surfaces would be okay with a cleaning I would think...all of that still better than the alternative.

LA is going to have to do away with tiered water costs, also make desert landscapes mandatory...no lawns.

R408, there are companies that specialize in cleaning and restoring houses after fires.

Tyler Henry predicted 2 months ago that Ricki Lake's house would burn down and look what happened. No one can deny now that he's the real deal.

R411 (insert biggest eye roll emoji available)

Remove Sandra Lee from the "CELEBRITIES WHOSE HOUSES BURNED DOWN" thread and add her to the dumbfuck pile. Her house survived the fires. We seriously need a separate thread specifically dedicated to the developmentally disabled celebs. who couldn't spot their house with the James Webb Space Telescope.

r408, a co-worker of mine today said that even though all the windows and doors were closed, the entire interior of their house is covered with ash. She was trying to figure out how to clean it all off. So smoke and ash cleaning.

My mother’s house floors would be covered in ash daily during the worst of the Australia fires in late 2019, and there were not even any fires within 20km. Good thing she had wooden floorboards and ceramic tiles and no carpets. The wind blew so much ash over, there were days when we couldn’t see our hands in front of us.

And we bought dirt cheap 3M n95 masks, which came in handy in early 2020.

We had to take down all her curtains to be dry cleaned and beat and shampooed the rugs.

R414 She WON'T be able to clean it all off - not by herself or with friends or family. She needs to call in professionals (and good luck with that - they will be in the highest demand and charging premiums) - the ones who clean up after disasters.

Can't recall the name, but the commercial is always running in my area: "How do you make what happened look like it didn't even happen ? Let'er rain Randy !" They guarantee if your workplace or home is 'hit by disaster', you call them and they will make it look pristine and ready to move in again.

These 'disaster clean up companies' are franchised all over the country - if they were smart, they would all head over to LA.

Farrah Fawcett's house burned down. Tatum just announced it on SM.

It was Ryan's house apparently R421

Following Ryan’s death, sources told The Post that the actor left behind a $30 million estate.

The estate included the $5 million Malibu beachfront home, which he bought in 1976 for just $151,000, as well as an Andy Warhol portrait of Fawcett he fought to keep.

Is Rita Moreno's old place gone?

Good thing she’s dead.

Did they at least save the Warhol? Had the estate sold the house yet (it's been two years since he died). One would hope the contents had been distributed by now.

That's unfortunate.

Anne Ramsay (A League of Their Own, Mad About You) lost her house of 30 years in the Castellemmare neighborhood. Built in 1924.

So Sonia Friedman has joined "Versailles." Did they run out of money?

Sally Field has lived in the Palisades for decades....before her current house, purchased 2012. We picked out some really disappointing cantaloupe together at Gelson's in the mid-1990s.

Were Farah’s ashes on the mantle of Ryan’s house? If so, she was cremated twice.

NCIS actor Eric Christian Olsen lost his house in the Castellmmare neighborhood, in south Palisades. Not sure who he is, but he qualifies as celeb...link in the following post.

Farrah is buried at at celebrity cemetery Pierce Brothers Westwood Village. Ryan may have sold the Warhol before he died.

Did Ryan's estate still own the Malibu property when it burned? Or had it been sold on to others.

Adam Rippon posted a week ago his house was ok in Pasadena, but nothing since. Admittedly, I don’t know much about the geography of the fires, or if Pasadena is now ok, or still under threat.

R442: First, what the hell is “enshittified”? Second, the thread is about celebs who lost their homes. I don’t see where it deviated at all from that.

Apparently Conan O'Brien's assistant/podcast cohost Sona lost her home in the Altadena fire. He was always kidding her about living there, and they broadcast from there one summer.

Mindy Cohn's house in Malibu (or Palisades?) survived. The adorable retriever isn't hers, but pops up on her Instagram now & then; it's Gregory Zarian's.

If she's tagging the LAPD, she must be in the Palisades, as Malibu is not in Los Angeles.

Good point, R449 -- you're right, that would indicate Palisades. I knew she lived somewhere around Palisades/Malibu because of the Instagram photos hiking above the Palisades & Malibu, and/or walking on the beach in Malibu.

I saw some photos (including two interior photos) of Fran Drescher's house, which has been yellow-tagged, meaning 10%-25% of it was damaged. Looks like most or the damage was confined to the eastern exterior of the house, in the walkway between her house & her next-door neighbor. A tree, or something, caught on fire from embers being blown between the houses? A bathroom sustained a fair amount of damage -- a large window blew out, with burns around the frame.

Here's a shot of her living room. (Compare to her Instagram post of Dec 25).

May I divert from the topic at hand for just a moment in order to ask why Fran Drescher has a Christmas tree in her house?

r439 I think she's the one who filmed a short video before leaving her house with a G-Wagen in the driveway, and then later pics showed that same SUV burnt to a crisp along with the house. Guess Fletcher Jones is already helping get her in a new one.

R451: Because she's cool & celebrates both Hanukkah & Christmas as secular holidays of joy & good will? Which landed on the same day, this year? She did say Happy Hanukkah first.

I have some not-very-religious Jewish friends who dig Christmas. They get all emotional at Charlie Brown Christmas special.

R453, Sammy Davi Jr wants his schtick back but thank you for the reply.

Do you often hear Sammy Davi Jr's voice in your head?

Is he here with us now?

No R455, but I do sometimes read asshole posts where they highlight a spelling error. These posts must be hallucinations as they're too stupid to be taken seriously.,

Well, you're the one who asked the DUMBASS question in the first place R451/R456. And you immediately went to something about Sammy Davis Jr. because....I used the word "dig", right? Says a lot about you.

[quote]why Fran Drescher has a Christmas tree in her house?

Some Jews do. Either they’re not particularly religious. Or they view it as a secular holiday.

I'm a Jew that loves (secular) Christmas. If Purim fell around Christmas it'd be much easier to ignore, but Hanukkah is the lamest of the Jewish holidays and every Jew knows it.

Is she married to a non Jew? They may celebrate both, especially if they have kids.

She is single and does not have kids.

That's what happens when you marry a fag.

I thought of the DL tennis threads when I saw this. Pam Shriver had to evacuate her Brentwood home during the Palisades fire. It did not burn down, but some asshole stole her car from the hotel parking garage where she was staying. Her tennis trophies -- including her US Open trophy -- were in the trunk.
