Miley Cyrus is no stranger to the heartache of seeing a family home go up in flames after having lost the Malibu property she'd previously shared with ex Liam Hemsworth following a California fire in 2018.
With this week's wildfires continuing to devastate regions across Los Angeles and one reportedly ablaze just 'minutes away' from the singers' new Studio City home, fans have been sending Miley their prayers.
It is believed that over 180,000 local residents have been forced to evacuate their homes since Tuesday (7 January), when the first of several wildfires erupted across the county.
The eight fires that have since ensued have continued spreading due to the extremely dry conditions and abnormally high temperatures in the region for this time of year, the BBC reports.

Earlier today, the LA Police Department arrested a man on suspicion of arson after he allegedly caught attempting to start a fire.
Several stars have spoken out in recent days about the realities of being forced to pack up and leave their homes and belongings behind, with some revealing their entire properties have been destroyed as a result.
In the days since the initial fire started, fans have been inundating Miley with well-wish messages on social media after a new fire erupted in Studio City, where Flowers' singer has a home, the National World reports.
One person wrote on Twitter: "The fire in STUDIO CITY is 11 minutes from Miley's studio city house.... Please pray for her," while another said: "Thinking about Miley right now, her studio city home is close to these fires.
"I know she’s rich and can afford the potential loss but the trauma is real regardless and the fact she’s lost a home before to one of these fires - I just hope she doing okay mentally and emotionally."
Adding that her home in Malibu is 'much deeper north than where the Palisades fires are at the moment', someone else commented: "Hopefully the winds don’t push and they can contain those fires but I believe as of now her homes are okay."
In 2018, in the midst of her marriage to her The Last Song co-star Hemsworth, several Malibu properties were tragically burned down as the result of the Woolsey Fire which ravaged California - including Miley's.
The Hannah Montana star had been in South Africa filming Black Mirror at the time, later writing on Twitter (via PEOPLE): "Completely devastated by the fires affecting my community."
She added at the time: "I am one of the lucky ones. My animals and LOVE OF MY LIFE made it out safely and that’s all that matters right now.
"My house no longer stands but the memories shared with family and friends stand strong."
Tyla has contacted Miley's representatives for comment.
