Songstress Jhené Aiko shared images of the skeletal remains of her Los Angeles-area mansion that was completely obliterated by the terrorizing wildfires in January 2025.
Aiko was but one of many celebrities and others whose expensive estates were reduced to ashes by the infamous infernos that swept through L.A. County.
On Tuesday, May 6, Aiko revisited the site of her former palatial home in the Pacific Palisades section of west Los Angeles, about 20 miles from downtown, that is renowned for its grandiose displays of wealth.

A third image that has the date April 7, 2025, gave a view of the ruins, and Aiko captioned it, “Finally saw it for myself… 3 months later.”
The native Angeleno, whose full name is Jhené Aiko Efuru Chilombo, wrote in another photo that, “Sometimes a sigh is not enough… you gotta scream “F—–CCCCKKK!!!” at the top of your lungs.”
Further along in the photo carousel that Aiko posed for her 4.4 million Instagram followers, she show the ruins of two Buddha statues that remained intact despite the fire.
