Critics Choice Association CEO Joey Berlin said in a statement to THR: ‘This unfolding tragedy has already had a profound impact on our community.

‘All our thoughts and prayers are with those battling the devastating fires and with all who have been affected.’

The annual BAFTA Tea Party scheduled for Saturday in Beverly Hills was canceled, and the AFI Awards postponed.

LA’s fire chief said on Wednesday morning that the fires have left at least two dead, as well as many ‘significant injuries.’

Hollywood’s biggest celebrities are picking up the pieces after discovering their affluent neighborhood was reduced to ash and rubble when the California wildfires tore though Pacific Palisades

The Palisades Fire broke out on Tuesday morning amid high winds in a region that hasn’t seen significant rainfall in more than six months.

Over 30,000 people have been evacuated, often leaving with just their pets and the shirts on their backs.

Sunset Boulevard in the Palisades was packed with abandoned luxury cars as residents left their vehicles to flee on foot.

Blocks of expensive homes were reduced to rubble as the fires advanced at the rate of three football field lengths per minute.

A stretch of homes on the beach along Pacific Coast Highway have been burned to the ground.

The fire reached the Getty Villa but officials from the museum assured the public that all of the art and artifacts are safe.

The Palisades fire is not the only fire raging in Los Angeles. The Eaton fire in the Pasadena area has claimed two lives and caused the evacuation of a senior center.

A number of celebrities have lost their homes, including Adam Brody and Leighton Meester, Anna Faris, Anthony Hopkins, John Goodman and Miles Teller.
