The wildfires in L.A. continue to ravage thousands of acres of land and property, forcing residents to flee their homes in search of safety.

Among the many people reckoning with the damage are celebrities who are using their clout to force the world—and local authorities—to come up with a plan to expediently resolve the situation and, most importantly, help locals in need.

Here is a list of all the celebrity homes affected by the L.A. wildfires:

Adam Brody and Leighton Meester

Brody and Meester's Los Angeles home, where they lived with their two children, burned down earlier this week. 

Billy Crystal

Billy Crystal and his wife Janice had been living in their Pacific Palisades home for 46 years, until their house burned down yesterday.

"Words cannot describe the enormity of the devastation we are witnessing and experiencing," the actor said in an official statement shared with PEOPLE. "We ache for our friends and neighbors who have also lost their homes and businesses in this tragedy. Janice and I lived in our home since 1979. We raised our children and grandchildren here. Every inch of our house was filled with love. Beautiful memories that can't be taken away. [...] We pray for the safety of the firefighters and first responders."

Anna Faris

An official spokesperson for Faris told PEOPLE that the actress "and her family are safe and very grateful," although their Los Angeles home has burned down.

Lake uploaded a carousel of photos from her home in Malibu, which sadly burned down yesterday, to Instagram.

"It’s all gone," she wrote in her caption. "We never took our heavenly spot on the bluff overlooking our beloved Malibu for granted, not even for one second. I shared our sunset views almost daily with all of you. This loss is immeasurable. It’s the spot where we got married 3 years ago. I grieve along with all of those suffering during this apocalyptic event."

Eugene Levy

Levy spoke to the Los Angeles Times about being stuck in traffic as he tried to flee the neighborhood where his home was destroyed. 

"The smoke looked pretty black and intense over Temescal Canyon," the actor said to the outlet. "I couldn’t see any flames but the smoke was very dark."

Cameron Mathison

Mathison shared an Instagram video of himself walking through the wreckage of what remains of his former Pacific Palisades home.

"We are safe," the actor wrote in the caption. "But this is what’s left of our beautiful home. Our home where our kids were raised and where they wanted to raise their own someday."

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag

Pratt took to Instagram to document the horrific fire that destroyed his and Montag's home on January 7. In the post, the reality TV star also mentioned that his parents' home in the neighborhood burned down.
