Dead To Me star Christina Applegate hit out at the people who are making fun of the wealthy celebrities whose homes were destroyed in the California wildfires.

Huge stars, including Paris Hilton, Anthony Hopkins, Joshua Jackson, Mel Gibson, Leighton Meester and more, have lost their homes due to the blaze. The fire has ravaged buildings and resulted in 130,000 people being evacuated from their homes, with the death toll rising to 24.

With many celebrities taking to social media to announce the news they're home was destroyed, a percentage of people have revelled in the fact that wealthy stars have lose their homes. Speaking on her MeSsy podcast with Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Christina raged against the people making light of the terrifying situation.

The Married... With Children star added that she's waiting to see if she and her daughter will need to evacuate from the area. "Theres not really words for it," Christina said of the fires. "You know what I have words for? F*** people who are saying that its, you know, good. Its Hollywood and those stupid Hollywood people. Like, youve gotta be kidding me."

Her co-host, Jamie-Lynn, told her to 'tune out' the insensitive comments, with Christina saying: "Ive tuned it out because theyre ridiculous, but Im calling them out right now. Jamie-Lynn went on to say those living in California are 'dreamers' who worked hard to get to where they are.

"And sure. Is there a group of people that have been affected that will have the ability to rebuild their lives? she explained. I wouldnt say easily, but soon? Yes. And are there thousands of other people that literally have no idea where they will begin? Yes. And we have to hold both of them in our hearts.

Christina, who already evacuated her home once with her daughter, said she has a backpack filled with important papers and meaningful things for if she needs to leave her home. She added: I tried to pack light [but] my daughters got, like, four suitcases, so I dont know whats gonna happen there.

Meanwhile, hotels and rentals in Los Angeles have seen sky-rocket prices amid the crisis, sparking backlash from people for the cruel tactic. Reports from US media reveal that a review of Zillow listings shows rents on numerous properties in LA's Westside have skyrocketed by 15 per cent to an astonishing 64 per cent since last Tuesday when the fires began.
