Several celebrities evacuated their homes Wednesday after a new blaze erupted near Bel-Air in Los Angeles.

Actress Lea Michele told Entertainment Tonight she fled her West Los Angeles house at 5:30 a.m., only to walk the red carpet for a "Women in Entertainment" breakfast a few hours later.

"Everything's OK," the starlet said, adding that she's staying with celebrity stylist Brad Goreski.

Some celebrities took to social media to reveal that they had fled their homes or were ready to leave at a moment's notice, including heiress Paris Hilton and singer Lionel Richie.

"Just evacuated my house," talk-show host Chelsea Handler wrote. "It's like Donald Trump is setting the world on fire."

Southern California Fires

The Skirball Fire was also nearing a handful of A-listers' mansions, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Garner, Maria Shriver and Heidi Klum, the Daily Mail reported Wednesday morning. Reports have yet to confirm whether the aforementioned celebrities' homes survived the onslaught of fire.

The fire, which broke out just before 5 a.m. Wednesday, crackled over 150 acres as of Wednesday afternoon. The fire shut down Interstate 405 where it intersects Mulholland Drive in Bel-Air.

A total of five fires fanned by gusty Santa Ana winds were burning across Southern California on Wednesday. Stock up on those air purifiers while you can!

California Gov. Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency for Ventura County, location of the largest of wildfires currently burning in the state. The fire has devoured dozens of homes and is considered a threat to 12,000 structures.
