Stars Evacuated As Malibu Brush Fire Rages

Stars including Mel Gibson, Victoria Principle Olivia Newton-John and Titanic director James Cameron and their families have been evacuated from their homes as the out-of-control Malibu brush fires continue to rage.

Over 200 homes - mainly along the Pacific Coast Highway - have already been evacuated, and many more stars living in the Malibu area are said to be in danger.

The Malibu County and Carbon Beach residents include: Jennifer Aniston, Sting, Bill Murray, Nick Nolte, Robin Wright Penn, Mel Brooks, Howie Mandel, Tatum O'Neal, Rob Reiner, Linda Ronstadt, Jeff Bridges, David Arquette and Courteney Cox, David Geffen, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson.

The fire is believed to have started when downed power lines ignited dry brush around 5am Sunday morning, following one of the driest California summers in years.

More than 1000 acres and numerous structures – including three residences - have already burned.

Over 500 firefighters are fighting the flames, which are expected to continue for several days.
