Some Hollywood A-listers are putting their money where their mouths are as the wildfires continue to devastate Los Angeles. The fires, which have killed at least 24 people and displaced thousands of others, have taken a major toll on the city.
Hollywood events have also been affected by the fires. The Grammy Awards will still take place Feb. In light of a massive crisis, awards season is taking a backseat as Hollywood focuses on helping victims of the deadly fires. Taylor Swift revealed she has donated to a number of charities helping with the wildfire relief in a post on her Instagram story. This is all incredibly grass roots. Proceeds will go to a new nonprofit that seeks to support displaced families, help rebuild infrastructure, and improves fire prevention technologies and strategies to make sure LA is better equipped to face wildfires going forward.
Dave Grohl spent his 56th birthday on Tuesday volunteering for Feed the Streets , a local nonprofit that distributes meals to displaced families and inmate firefighters. The Foo Fighters frontman was spotted stirring a large chili pot and pushing a cart alongside other volunteers. Jay Leno brought his own fire truck to serve ribs to several first responders tirelessly battling the LA fires.
But I hope everybody across the country. This is not a question of blue states or red states. Republicans or Democrats. This is humanitarian. And this really, really is a major crisis. We are focusing on the Red Cross. Literally, the entire city of the Pacific Palisades is burning.
This is for people who need any of these things, please come there. Hilton, who lost her Malibu beach house in the Palisades Fire, launched an emergency fund to help other victims.
