Mandy Moore tells trolls to ‘f*** off’ after backlash over LA wildfire GoFundMe set up by pal Hilary Duff’s husband

MANDY Moore told trolls to “F*** off” after asking for donations to help her relatives who lost their home in the LA wildfires.

The This Is Us star hit back online after facing backlash for sharing a GoFundMe campaign for her brother-in-law and sister-in-law.

Despite losing part of her own home, Moore faced criticism online, with some accusing her of not doing enough to help her family financially.

“People questioning whether we’re helping out our own family or attributing some arbitrary amount of money Google says someone has is NOT helpful or empathetic,” Moore snapped in an Instagram post.

“Of course we are. Our buddy Matt started this GoFundMe, and I’m sharing because people have asked how they can help them.

“We just lost most of our life in a fire too. Kindly F OFF. No one is forcing you to do anything.”

The GoFundMe, started by Hilary Duff’s husband, Matthew Koma, has nearly reached its $145,000 goal, with actor Zachary Levi contributing $10,000.

Moore’s sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Griffin, lost their home and possessions, including Griffin’s collection of drums and percussion equipment, from which he would make a living.

The tragedy comes just weeks before the couple welcomes their first child.

“It’s all so much. So many have asked how to help during this unimaginable and stressful time… Please consider donating and sharing to help them rebuild,” Moore wrote.

The raging wildfires in Los Angeles have wreaked havoc across the city, leaving behind a trail of destruction.

Fierce Santa Ana winds, gusting over 70 mph, have fueled the flames, making it nearly impossible for firefighters to contain the blazes.

Over 180,000 residents have been forced to evacuate, and thousands of structures have been reduced to ash.

At least ten people have been confirmed dead, though officials fear the number could rise as crews begin to sift through the rubble.

The fires have hit celebrity neighborhoods particularly hard, with stars like Mel Gibson, Bella Hadid, and Paris Hilton losing their homes.

Others, such as Mark Hamill and Tom Hanks, narrowly escaped devastation, their properties standing amidst charred ruins.

The economic toll of the wildfires is staggering, with damage estimates climbing to as much as $150 billion.

Governor Gavin Newsom has deployed over 1,400 firefighters, with additional teams arriving from neighboring states, but the battle to contain the flames is far from over.

This year’s wildfires have once again highlighted the vulnerability of even the most affluent areas of Los Angeles to nature’s fury, leaving thousands homeless and entire communities shattered.

Moore’s own home in Altadena, which she shares with husband Taylor Goldsmith, was partially burned but “miraculously” still standing.

But the garage, backhouse, and a music studio belonging to Goldsmith and Griffin were reduced to ash.

“Everyone we know lost everything. Every house on our street is gone,” Moore wrote, adding that she was grappling with “weird survivor’s guilt.”

The tragedy hit an eerie parallel with Moore’s role on This Is Us, where her character’s family loses their home to a fire.

Co-star Milo Ventimiglia also lost his home in the wildfires, calling the situation a surreal case of “life imitating art.”

Despite the criticism, many fans have rallied around Moore, urging empathy and compassion.

One supporter wrote: “If you don’t want to donate, don’t, but please try to lead with empathy.”
