Former That 70s Show star Ashton Kutcher jumps in to lend a helping hand to a close pal during the devastating and horrifying Pacific Palisades wildfires as they blaze out of control, causing millions of dollars in damage.
According to the Daily Mail, Ashton Kutcher rushed to the residence of his former Two and a Half Men boss Chuck Lorre’s ex-wife, Arielle Lorre, early Wednesday afternoon. Ashton has been on the negative side of the public eye recently regarding his longtime friendship with Sean Diddy Combs.
He and his family have been keeping a low profile. However, once the wildfires began, Ashton jumped into action and did whatever he could to help out his neighbors. Wildfires spread across L.A. County, forcing more than 80,000 evacuations.
Ashton, sporting a face mask, was seen hosing down the property’s exterior walls near Reese Witherspoons former home. Kutcher and his wife, Mila Kunis, also own multiple properties in Southern California.
The Pacific Palisades wildfires continue to spread as dangerously high winds destroy numerous celebrity homes. The out-of-control flames are tearing through neighborhoods that dozens of A-listers call home, including Ben Affleck, Jhene Aiko, Tom Hanks, Miles Teller, the Kardashians, Paris Hilton, and many more.
Hollywood A-Listers Forced To Evacuate
So far, numerous reports indicate that celebrities including Billy Crystal, John Goodman, Eugene Levy, Anna Ferris, Adam Brody, and Leighton Meister’s homes have burned to the ground, suffering a complete loss.
Residents are being ordered to evacuate as firefighters continue to risk their lives battling the Los Angeles wildfires. TMZ reports that they are booked to capacity as terrified residents flee the fires, leaving many displaced residents desperate for shelter.
Hotels with a few vacancies offer a 10 percent discount to guests affected by the wildfires. While Ashton Kutcher’s aid to help may seem unimportant to some, firefighters claim otherwise.
According to local firefighters on the scene, Ashton’s efforts and those of others like him could be game-changers. Cal Fire reveals that well-watered plants tend to be less flammable. And in a catastrophe like this, anything to curtail the fires helps.
So far, officials say they have yet to determine the causes of the wildfires. At this time, it doesn’t matter what started the fires. The main goal is to get them under control and stop them from spreading. As the rest of the United States watches in horror, they are praying for all who are affected by the wildfires and banning together, looking for any and all ways to help.
