Star's Home Burns In Malibu Firestorm

MALIBU, Calif. -- Actress Suzanne Somers said she has a "glass half-full" perspective on the loss of her Malibu home in the wildfire that swept through her exclusive seaside neighborhood of multimillion-dollar homes.
She told the syndicated television entertainment show "The Insider" that she and husband Alan Hamel "haven't lost a loved one."
"We will rebuild, and I truly believe we will learn something great from this experience," she said.
A spokesman for Somers and Hamel said the pair's home is a total loss, but that they were not hurt.
Three other homes and a guest house were also lost in the wind-driven fire and four additional houses were significantly damaged.
An unidentified resident of one of the houses was hospitalized because of smoke inhalation.
Properties are still smoldering and about 150 firefighters are watching to douse any hot spots on Tuesday. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Weather officials in Southern California are warning that the hot, dry, windy conditions that helped fuel last night's wildfire will continue through Wednesday.
