Matt escapes fire; others not so lucky

Matthew McConaughey is "fine and back at home," his rep says, after he and his girlfriend were forced to flee his $10 million pad after the latest Malibu blaze Saturday. The actor was spotted grocery shopping in Beverly Hills with model galpal Camilla Alves on Saturday. When asked what brought them to the area, he told photographers, "The fires, man, the fires." Meanwhile, one of the Malibu homes owned by Chili Peppers bassist Flea was destroyed by the blaze. "There was confusion because Flea owns two homes in Malibu. The home he lives in did not burn down. The other home is for sale and did burn down," his rep confirmed. Flea had initially texted a Times reporter that his $10.5 million home "had burnt to a crisp," but his manager told KNX Newsradio that was not accurate.
