Popular singer Britney Spears recently revealed that she evacuated her home amid the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires and is offering some words of support for her fellow Angelenos via PEOPLE.
On Saturday, January 9th, the pop superstar dropped a message to fans and friends on Instagram, writing in a caption that she was hoping they were “all doing OK” and that she had to leave her home as areas of Los Angeles continue to be impacted by deadly fires this week.
“I had to evacuate my home and I’m driving 4 hours to a hotel,” Spears wrote, as she shared a video of mini doll shoes in an effort to “lift people’s spirits.”
“Most people may not even be on their phones,” she added.
“I wasn’t the past two days because I had no electricity to charge and I just got my phone back !!! I pray you’re all doing well and I send my love 🌹 !!!”
Spears is not the only notable figure who has been impacted by the fires in the Los Angeles area, as multiple celebrities have also evacuated and some have even lost their homes, including Paris Hilton, Ricki Lake, Anna Faris, Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.
Jamie Lee Curtis lives in Pacific Palisades, where a blaze first ignited around 10:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday, Jan. 7th, revealed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that her local market, her friends’ homes and schools have also been lost in the fire. “It’s a really awful situation,” she said, adding that she was returning to L.A. on Thursday to “try to help my friends.”
“Do anything you can,” Curtis added, pointing to the American Red Cross. “Anything in your community to help people. Whether you need it or not now, you will need it. Give blood, donate, whatever you can do.”
As of Friday, January 10th, five fatalities have been confirmed, 29,000 acres have burned, over 10,000 structures have been destroyed and multiple fires are still active, per CalFire.
