Jennifer Lopez has reportedly canceled all her upcoming media appearances amid the catastrophic wildfires ravaging Los Angeles. Beginning this Tuesday, the area was struck by its worst windstorms in over a decade, fueling fires that have destroyed thousands of structures and claimed at least 11 lives over the course of the week.

About 130,000 people were put under evacuation orders or warnings, as the authorities sent out K-9 units trained to detect human remains in the wreckage. One blaze in the Pacific Palisades has consumed a number of celebrity homes, including residences owned by Paris Hilton, Jeff Bridges, Anthony Hopkins, John Goodman, James Woods, Miles Teller, Tina Knowles and Anna Faris.

Now it has emerged that the crisis prompted Lopez, 55, to scrap her publicity rounds for her movie Unstoppable, which arrives on Amazon Prime next Friday. 'It's important to her to focus on supporting the community of Los Angeles during this very difficult time,' a source close to her told People.

The movie was scheduled to have a premiere at Hollywood's iconic TCL Chinese Theatre on Tuesday, but the event was called off in light of the wildfires. Next week, Lopez was due to fly to New York to promote the film on shows like Live With Kelly And Mark, Today, The View and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
