Broadcaster and businessman Paris Hilton lost 12.2 billion apartment in Malibu due to a large forest fire in Los Angeles (LA).

According to CNN on the 8th (local time), wildfires broke out in the Pacific Palisades area, a rich town on the west coast of LA, the morning before, followed by simultaneous wildfires in Eaton, Hurst, and Woodley.

According to the New York Times (NYT), as of this afternoon, the wildfire engulfed 202 ㎦, about 70 times the size of Yeouido (2.9 ㎦), burning at least 1,000 buildings and displacing 150,000 people.

Paris Hilton posted a news footage of her home burning on the 9th, saying, `No one should go through sitting with their family watching the news and watching their home in Malibu burn down live.'

The photo released showed Hilton's 12.2 billion-dollar mansion, which was burned down and left only the rubble, shocking. Hilton went on to say, "It's heartbreaking beyond words. This house is a place where we have made a lot of precious memories. It's where Phoenix took its first steps, and where I dreamed of making lifelong memories with London."

Finally "The hurt is enormous, but I am grateful that my family is safe. My heart and prayers go out to all the families affected by this fire."

Meanwhile, the Hilton couple purchased the mansion for $8.4 million (KRW 12.22 billion) in June 2021.
