Malibu Celebs on Fire Watch

James Cameron and Olivia Newton-John have been evacuated, and there are many more celebs in the Malibu area whose homes are in danger. Numerous homes along Pacific Coast Highway have been evacuated.

The Malibu County and Carbon Beach residents include: Jennifer Aniston, Sting, Bill Murray, Nick Nolte, Robin Wright Penn, Mel Brooks, Tatum O'Neal, Rob Reiner, Goldie Hawn, Linda Ronstadt, Jeff Bridges, David Arquette and Courteney Cox, David Geffen, Jeffrey Katzenberg,Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson.

The fire is believed to have started when arcing power lines, downed by fierce Santa Ana winds, ignited dry brush around 5:00 AM Sunday. California has had one of the worst droughts in years, leaving hillsides especially vulnerable to brushfires. Over 1000 acres and numerous structures have already burned. More than 500 firefighters from all over the area are fighting the flames -- still being fanned by gusting winds, which are expected to continue for several days. Roughly 200 homes have been evacuated.


UPDATE: Sources on the scene tell TMZ that homes belonging to Mark Hamill, Sean Penn and David Duchovny are all in danger.

34. I am so sick of hollywood celebs pain and troubles reported by the news when things really important like unequal justice takes a back seat on all news reporting.

38. These people live too well for being in a film, singing or directing. Talentless pieces of crap not worth the time of day. Teachers,nurses,social workers, etc. these are the people who do real work and should be living the high life!!!!!!!!

39. I can't believe that so many could be so unfeeling. Yes Malibu may be the playground for the rich and famous but if it was your home or family's home it would'nt be any less devastating. Think of not just the people but all the memories, animals and wildlife that are being destroyed. Thank God it is not you but have some compassion for those that are being affected.

Enjoy the rest of your day and hug those close to you and feel lucky.

40. There were some disgusting comments by people jealous of those who have wealth. Nothing can replace personal items, photos, etc. The "have nots" of the world will always envy those that made a success out of theirs!
