The singer took to Twitter to thank her followers and update them on her situation, saying she felt “grateful” for what remained. Cyrus said she was devastated by the fires affecting her area, but is one of the lucky ones. Her animals and the “love of her life” made it out safely. She stated, “My house no longer stands but the memories shared with family & friends stand strong. I am grateful for all I have left.” The 25-year-old then thanked first-time responders.”

Neil Young also took to Twitter to reveal he left his home to the wildfire. On his personal website, he criticized President Donald Trump’s tweet attribution to the fires to “bad forest management.” Neil stated California is vulnerable not because of poor forest management, rather because of Climate Change.
Gerard Butler called the situation “heartbreaking” as he stands next to his home, completely destroyed, showing its charred remains. The Woolsey fire started Thursday night and had pushed toward Malibu and the Pacific ocean by Friday, prompting an evacuation in Aurora Hills, Calabasas, Malibu and other nearby areas. The wild blaze was torched over 85,000 acres of Los Angeles and Ventura counties, claiming at least 150 homes.
According to authorities, the blaze virtually burned down the town of Paradise, destroying thousands of structures and homes. Over 228 people are unaccounted for and at least 31 people have died.

Thank for your Twitter love. We are safe and sound (oversees), our animals were rescued and our house (barely) spared. The fire roared down the creek bed behind our house and missed it by a dozen yards! pic.twitter.com/pHkkqFHuIH

I heard the flames have hit our property at our home in Hidden Hills but now are more contained and have stopped at the moment. It doesn’t seems like it is getting worse right now, I just pray the winds are in our favor. God is good. I’m just praying everyone is safe 🙏🏼
