The ongoing wildfire in Pacific Palisades, California, has forced many celebrities to evacuate their lavish homes due to the immediate danger to their lives, as authorities alert residents.

On Tuesday night, Marqueece Harris-Dawson, the President of the Los Angeles City Council, declared a state of emergency, cautioning that the most severe part of the windstorm is still on its way.

To assist the frightened residents fleeing the area on foot, the city deployed bulldozers to clear the roads of abandoned vehicles and create a path for emergency personnel to reach the hills where the fire is spreading rapidly.

Teslas, BMWs, Porches, and Mercedes were all filmed being dozed out of the way on Tuesday afternoon – as terrified millionaire locals said that the natural disaster felt like an all-encompassing ‘tornado of fire.’

Evacuation notices were initially placed along the affluent coastal region, with a chilling warning of an ‘immediate threat to life’ from the California Department of Forest and Fire Protection. 

The apocalyptic inferno has torn through the ritzy neighborhood, home to many A-list celebrities, including Ben Affleck, Jhene Aiko, Tom Hanks, and Miles Teller, among others.

Reality TV star Spencer Pratt, 41, and his wife Heidi Montage, 38, lost their home in Pacific Palisades due to the raging wildfire.

Ben Affleck 

The Hollywood star purchased his $20.5million bachelor pad on July 24, the same day as his now ex wife Jennifer Lopez’s 55th birthday.

The estate – which sits on nearly an acre of land – also in a very coveted neighborhood for the Los Angeles area as it is situated in between the two affluent neighborhoods of Brentwood and Pacific Palisades.

The actor told the paper, ‘The smoke looked pretty black and intense over Temescal Canyon. I couldn’t see any flames, but the smoke was very dark.’

Oscar-nominated actor James Woods, 77, took to X with multiple posts detailing the damage as a fast-moving wildfire in the Los Angeles hillsides was exacerbated by a fierce windstorm in Southern California.

‘Hope everybody gets out safely … leaving,’ said Woods, an Academy Award-nominee for the films Salvador (1986) and Ghosts of Mississippi Leaving (1996), accompanied by a clip of a hillside blaze.

Woods posted a series of photos and clips documenting the damage as he praised the efforts made by first responders to his 4.5 million followers. 

‘We were blessed to have LA fire and police depts doing their jobs so well,’ Woods said. ‘We are safe and out. ‘There are several elementary schools in our neighborhood and there was an enormous community effort to evacuate the children safely. Can not speak more highly of the LA fire and LAPD.’

On Tuesday evening, Los Angeles City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson declared a state of emergency – while warning that the worst of the windstorm is ‘yet to come’ 

The Casino actor said he was unclear on the condition of his home after he and his family evacuated their home.

Police Academy star Steve Guttenberg sprung into action as the deadly wildfire ripped through Tuesday. 

The 66-year-old actor did not just stand by and instead opted to assist firefighters by moving cars in order to make room for the incoming fire trucks. 

He told KTLA 5’s Gene Kang: ‘What’s happening is people take their keys with them as if they’re in a parking lot. This is not a parking lot. We really need people to move their cars.

‘If you leave your car behind, leave the key in there so a guy like me can move your car so that these fire trucks can get up there.’
