'Wicked' fame music producer Greg Wells has joined the list of Hollywood celebrities who have lost their home in the ongoing Los Angeles fire which left the region ravaged.
According to a report published in Variety, he not only lost his house located in Pacific Palisades, but also his Dolby Atmos mixing room and studio.
He told Variety: "I think life is supposed to be hard. I’m not sure it’s supposed to be quite this hard."
"But it could be so, so, so much worse than it is. I know a number of people have died, but the people immediately close to me and my family, we’re all healthy and safe — and kind of depressed and bewildered," he said.
Actress Paris Hilton recently shared the destroyed state of her Malibu house.
Meanwhile, the death toll in the Los Angeles, USA, wildfires has touched 24 with firefighters struggling to contain the blaze that has ravaged the region.
The LA County medical examiner confirmed the updated death toll on Monday.
Rising concerns, weather forecasters said fierce winds which fuelled the blaze might pick up this week.
Officials told BBC that after a weekend of relatively calm winds, the notoriously dry Santa Ana winds would pick up again from Sunday night until Wednesday, reaching speeds of up to 60mph (96km/h).
Firefighters have made some progress in containing the Palisades and Eaton fires.
Crews from other US states and neighbouring Canada and Mexico have joined local firefighters in their race to bring the inferno under control.
