Since early Tuesday, Montecito has been overcome by massive mudslides that have now destroyed homes, taken lives, and caused incredible chaos.
At least five people have been pronounced dead, while many others have been reported missing.
Hundreds of homes have been completely covered by waves of mud, prompting authorities to evacuate people in the area.
Some celebrity residents have come forward to speak of the natural disaster. Ellen DeGeneres, for example, showed live footage of the mudslide by sharing with viewers what the area looked like outside their homes.
DeGeneres told her show viewers that she and wife Portia de Rossi got evacuated once again, just days after returning home after the holidays. They were also evacuated during the wild fires.
Oprah also said her property had been severe damaged by the mud.
Bella Thorne said she was so affected by the mudslide she couldn’t make it to her boyfriend’s concert! That comments caused actor Rob Lowe to bash the star, saying that type of response is exactly why people hate celebrities/Hollywood. “I’m sorry you were inconvenienced. We will try to move out our dead quicker,” he tweeted at the time.
