Joshua Jackson’s Topanga Canyon Home Destroyed In Palisades Fire

Joshua Jackson is one of hundreds to lose his home in the ongoing Palisades Fire.

The Doctor Odyssey actor’s rep confirmed to Deadline that his Topanga Canyon home, which he purchased in 2001, was destroyed over the weekend in the Southern California wildfires, which have destroyed thousands of structures.

“First and most importantly, all the people closest to me affected by the fire are ok. My daughter, my family, my neighbors all made it out safely,” said Jackson in a statement. “Sadly my beautiful home did not survive the fires. But today, I feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded by the people I love.”

Meanwhile, stars like Paris Hilton, Milo Ventimiglia, Adam Brody, Leighton Meester and Billy Crystal have also lost their homes in the ongoing wildfires.

Fires have broken out in the Pacific Palisades, Eaton Canyon, Malibu, the Hollywood Hills and other areas around Los Angeles County amid a “life-threatening and destructive” windstorm that picked up Tuesday.

As of Sunday, at least 14 people have died in the Southern California wildfires, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has received 16 missing persons reports related to the fires. Meanwhile, more than 105,000 people have received mandatory evacuation orders, with another 87,000 under evacuation warnings.

Since the fires started, officers have made 29 arrests across the impacted areas, including for burglary, breaking curfew and other violations.

President Joe Biden, who extended his Los Angeles trip on Wednesday to visit first responders and those affected, declared the fires a major disaster and directed the federal government to cover 100% of costs for disaster assistance.

“Over 100,000 people have been ordered to evacuate communities impacted by the Southern California wildfires,” wrote Biden on X. “At least two people have been killed. And many more are injured — including firefighters. It’s devastating. To the residents of Southern California: We are with you.”
