Parts of Cara Delevingne‘s Los Angeles home were razed by a massive fire in the early hours of this morning. Reports suggest the fire was serious and that firefighters needed about two hours to contain it.
Some injuries were also reported at the scene of the incident, but that was not Delevingne, who is currently away in the U.K. and has been performing at the Playhouse Theater.
Cara Delevingne’s L.A. Home Caught Fire
According to a report, the “Suicide Squad” actress’ Studio City home caught on fire that was so serious it took the firefighters considerable effort to contain it.
Delevingne’s L.A. home reportedly got razed at about 3:52 AM as law enforcement sources confirmed to the news outlet that a 911 call came in at about 3:57 AM PST.
Firefighters subsequently rushed to the scene and realized that a backroom of some sort on the property had caught on fire.
It remains unclear what caused the fire, but it was so massive and fast-moving that it almost took over the property. Parts of the roof collapsed, and firefighters reportedly took around 2 hours to contain it.
Some Injuries Were Recorded At The Scene Of The Incident
According to TMZ, some injuries were recorded in the incident, as a source noted that an emergency official fell from a ladder and sustained some injuries in an effort to put out the blaze.
It remains unclear how serious the firefighter’s injuries are. An occupant of the house also needed medical attention for smoke inhalation as well.
A total of 94 firefighters in 13 different engines were present at the scene to fight the blaze. Four ambulances were also sent to the property in case of any medical emergency.
Luckily, the “Only Murders In The Building” actress was not present on the property. She had been away in England, performing at the Playhouse Theater all week.
Cara Delevingne Makes Stage Debut In ‘Cabaret’
The troubled actress made her stage debut in the musical Cabaret earlier this week. The iconic musical, set in interwar Berlin, saw Delevingne play the lead, Sally Bowles, opposite Luke Treadaway as the Emcee.
Her longtime friend Sienna Miller and her partner Oli Green were both in attendance to watch her first performance in the musical.
The former model told the UK Standard that she had engaged in long weeks of rehearsals and would have started earlier but for the Writers’ strike.
“I think it is a wonderful thing that the strike happened,” she shared. “But also a very sad thing because you see how people in power disregard and don’t care about people’s lives, jobs, and what’s fair.”
Cara Delevingne Had To Defend Her Casting In The Stage Production
It comes after she was subject to online speculations and had to defend herself as fans raised eyebrows over her casting in the musical and suggested that she was handed the role.
“Even if I did the best I possibly could, and even if that was really good, people are still going to be like, ‘She doesn’t deserve to be here,’” she told the news outlet. “You know, I auditioned like anyone else [so] it’s just annoying, but I have to tune that out.”
Delevingne also claimed in the interview that the press in London is “rough,” and that’s what made her decide to move to Los Angeles.
“The press and journalism can be really rough [here]… You’re either a person that people want to succeed or you’re not. And I think once you are one of the latter, you can’t really get out of that. So I was like, ‘The only thing I want to do is leave,’” she added.
Cara Delevingne Seen Leaving Her West End Show Make-Up Free
Earlier, before news of her home being set on fire was revealed, the model was spotted leaving Kit Kat Cabaret at The Playhouse Theatre in London alongside actress and singer Denise Van Outen.
For the outing, Cara donned a long black coat with a striking red collar, a white T-shirt, and a grey velour tracksuit.
On the other hand, Van Outen made her way to the party in a pair of shimmering hot pink and gold zebra print flares, which made her look very stunning.
According to the Daily Mail, Liv Davey, the “Strictly Come Dancing” makeup artist, turned thirty this year, and Van Outen, who is a DJ, celebrated by spinning records at the Discoliscious event.
