Stevie Wonder's home has allegedly been burned down in the Californian wildfire outbreak.

The soul singer is reportedly "devastated" after his home in Porter Ranch was struck by the fire, which hit the counties of Los Angeles and Ventura earlier in the week.

"Everything was destroyed - all of Stevie's memorabilia, photos, musical instruments, history, clothing, furniture, everything," a source told Page Six.

"It's all gone. It was his main residence and he is utterly devastated. Stevie's had to put his tour and appearances on hold while he deals with this."

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has declared a state of emergency in the affected regions.
