Drone footage has revealed the heartbreaking extent of devastation as wildfires continue to wreak havoc across California. Famous celebrity neighborhoods, including Calabasas and Hidden Hills -- home to the Kardashians -- are now in the fire's path, with thousands of structures reduced to nothing but ash and rubble.
The Kenneth Fire, which erupted in West Hills, has rapidly spread across nearly 1,000 acres, placing the Kardashian family's homes in Calabasas and Hidden Hills in grave danger. Kourtney Kardashian's property near Malibu Canyon is directly threatened, and Kim and Khloe Kardashian’s Hidden Hills homes are also at risk.
