Country-wide indignation ensued after some Hollywood celebrities have been accused of ignoring water-saving regulations to maintain their expensive gardens as fires ravaged Los Angeles and fire hydrants ran dry.
The restrictions, in place since 2022, limit the time that regular residents can water their lawns to twice a week for only eight minutes per session. However, entertainment personalities, such as Kim Kardashian, have exceeded their water allocation by hundreds of thousands of gallons and are being penalized as a result.
Despite being fined, neighbors have accused her and other celebrities, such as Sylvester Stallone and Kevin Hart, of continuing to use excessive amounts of water.
