The Palisades Fire, which started on Jan. 7, has led to a rise in the number of people who have lost their homes in the L.A. fires. The multiple fires have destroyed thousands of homes and businesses, claiming 24 lives so far.

The severe Santa Ana winds have been attributed to the rapid spread of the wildfires that devastated neighborhoods in the nation's second-largest city, which has experienced a drought for over eight months without significant rainfall.

In less than a week, four fires have burned more than 62 square miles (160 square kilometers), which is approximately three times the size of Manhattan.

Paris Hilton, John Goodman, Anna Faris, Adam Brody, and Leighton Meester are among the celebrities who have lost their homes.

On Thursday, Hilton posted an update on Instagram while at the location of her former home.

"Hilton shared a video of the destruction of their former home, captioning it with a heartbreaking message. "The loss of our home is beyond words," she wrote. "When I first heard the news, I was in shock. But now, standing here and seeing it with my own eyes, it feels like my heart has shattered. This house was more than just a place to live – it was our sanctuary, where we created memories that will last a lifetime. To see it destroyed is unbearable.""

Cameron Mathison, star of 'All My Children,' admitted that he left behind valuable items when he evacuated his home due to the Eaton Fire. He only took passports, birth certificates, and photo albums because he didn't believe he would lose his home.

"Unfortunately, I left some valuable items in a place where the kids were very young, and there's no way to replace the film, Mathison said to Entertainment Tonight. If I had thought the house was going down, I would have grabbed so much more."

Mathison remembered learning that his home had burned down while watching the news. "I was sitting there, probably around 6 in the morning, when I had to go up and see what had happened," he said. "I put on a mask and glasses before going into my neighborhood. It looked like a war zone."

The actor arrived to find the family's home "completely destroyed." "It was absolutely devastated. There's nothing left. It's like it never existed. It's just a pile of ash."
