As of January 13, close to 100,000 people are under evacuation orders. The population is in nothing less than panic.

Amid the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires, baseless rumours have surfaced suggesting the possible cancellation of the 97th Academy Awards, scheduled for Sunday, March 2, in Hollywood. The claims, lacking any credible foundation, have sparked unnecessary speculation.

So far, none of the more than 80 venues due to stage Olympic competition in Los Angeles have been directly affected by the infernos that have left at least 24 people dead and reduced entire neighborhoods to smouldering ruins.

As the 67th Annual Grammy Awards draw near, the devastating wildfires raging through Los Angeles have raised concerns about the event's timing. Set for February 2 at Crypto.com Arena, the ceremony may face delays or alterations due to the ongoing crisis. Discussions within the industry suggest that the show could be postponed, with some even proposing it be transformed into a fundraiser for wildfire relief efforts.
