California is grappling with devastating wildfires that have resulted in at least five fatalities and forced over 130,000 evacuations in the Los Angeles area. Governor Gavin Newsom has described the fires as ‘historic,’ with seven active blazes threatening various neighborhoods, including Pacific Palisades and Hollywood. A state of emergency has been declared, and more than 7,500 firefighters are battling the flames amid severe drought conditions and high winds. Celebrities, including Adam Brody and Paris Hilton, have been impacted, losing their homes to the sprawling infernos.
