Hollywood stars flee homes in fear of wildfires

A-listers evacuate as flames lick doorsteps

Hollywood stars living in an exclusive region of California have had to flee their homes after the spread of wildfires.

Flames have been destroying large areas of the Malibu Hills of Southern California - along the coast from San Diego to Santa Barbara - since 5am on Sunday morning.

Grease star Olivia Newton-John and Titanic director James Cameron had to be evacuated from their houses.

'This fire is zero per cent contained, which means we are at the mercy of the winds,' Malibu mayor Pamela Conley Ulich tells the Daily Mail.

Other celebs who live in the area - which is only 25 miles from Hollywood - include Jennifer Aniston, Pierce Brosnan, Sting, Mel Gibson, Courteney Cox and hubby David Arquette, Tom Hanks, Richard Gere and David Duchovny.

The fire is expected to continue to rage until Wednesday.
