Wildfires raged for the third straight day, destroying swaths of America’s most populated county and displacing tens of thousands of residents, with firefighters struggling to contain the biggest blazes.

Fierce wildfires are raging in the Los Angeles area, with fast-moving flames burning through homes and businesses. Residents are fleeing smoke-filled canyons.

Here's what Hollywood's stars have said and shared on social media about the devastating wildfires ravaging Southern California in January 2025.

As wildfires ravage the Los Angeles area, destroying neighborhoods and forcing tens of thousands to evacuate, the impact of the devastation continues to grow. At least five people have died and several wind-driven fires remain largely uncontained. The largest, known as the Palisades Fire, is the most destructive wildfire in Los Angeles history.

The wildfires that destroyed homes in multiple sections of the Los Angeles area will test California’s efforts to stabilize the state’s insurance marketplace after many insurers stopped issuing residential policies due to the high fire risk.

Pacific Palisades, a coastal community of about 23,000 people, was still burning from the wildfires that have swept through the city this week. The latest: Five people have died as intensely powerful winds fan the flames of multiple wildfires around Los Angeles.
