    Paris Hilton, Sir Anthony Hopkins, John Goodman, Billy Crystal and Miles Teller are the latest celebrities to have their homes razed to the ground by the killer Palisades wildfires

    Los Angeles has been plagued by infernos since they erupted early Tuesday (07.01.25) morning, with monstrous flames eating through 15,000 acres of land and forcing at least 30,000 people to evacuate - include a string of the world's most famous faces.


    It emerged on Wednesday (08.01.25) hundreds of homes had been destroyed including those belonging to reality TV stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, acting partners Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, as well as a mansion belonging to actress Anna Faris.

    Two civilian deaths were also reported in one of the three largest wildfires ravaging LA.

    It has now come to light Paris Hilton, 43, is also among the celebs mourning the loss of a mansion to the blazes.

    She posted on Instagram: "Heartbroken beyond words. (Broken heart emoji.)

    "Sitting with my family, watching the news, and seeing our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience. (Crying face emoji.)

    "This home was where we built so many precious memories. It's where Phoenix took his first steps and where we dreamed of building a lifetime of memories with London."

    Paris and husband Carter Reum, also 43, share son Phoenix, 23 months, and daughter London, who turned one in November.

    The hotel heiress also confirmed in her Instagram post t her family is safe and sent her "heart and prayers" to everyone hit by the Palisades fires.

    Actor John Goodman's home has also been wiped out in the wildfires as his Pacific Palisades property was in the path of the main blaze.

    Photos showed all that remains of his mansion is his backyard pool, which was seen filled with dirty, blackened water.

    Sir Anthony Hopkins' home is also gone, devastating photos showed.

    Gates that protected the property are still standing, but have been pushed wide open.

    'Top Gun: Maverick' star Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh also saw their $7.5million mansion, which they bought in April 2023, wiped out.

    Nothing remains of Billy Crystal's sprawling home beyond his tennis courts - which were virtually unmarked despite his house lying in ruins beside the green grounds.
