Chrissy Teigen and Paris Hilton: celebs react to LA fires
Hollywood is feeling the burn as wildfires rage in Los Angeles.
As the flames continue to spread into the third day of crisis in Southern California, some high-profile celebs have offered out their support to those affected.
LA is home to some of the world's biggest stars, many of who have been forced to evacuate their homes in the luxury suburbs of Bel-Air and Dodge.
Chrissy Teigen had to leave the home she shares with hubby John Legend and their daughter, Luna.
“Never thought I’d get to actually play what I thought was a hypothetical game of what would you grab if there were a fire,” she wrote on Twitter. “So far all I have is Luna, some limited edition Oreos and my spike tv award.”
we are fine and we will be fine. thinking of everyone else affected and continuing my lifelong intense love of firefighters.
