Stevie Nicks Broken As Maui Wildfires Continue
On Instagram, Nicks opened up about the catastrophic Maui wildfires that have been ravaging the island since August 8 that killed 90 people as of press time.
The " Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" hitmaker said the island defines her and Fleetwood Mac in many ways.
"Mick and I came here in 1978, went up to Kula to look at a huge, beautiful house and stood in front of it listening to the gentle magical wind. He said to me ~ 'I will live and die on this island.' I knew he was telling the truth," she said. "John also lived here in Maui for a long time - Christine never lived here but visited many times."

Nicks also updated the fans that her family -her niece, her niece's husband, and their child - had been staying in her house in Lahaina but were unreachable. They reportedly survived as well as her home.
The "Edge of Seventeen" singer's bandmate, Fleetwood, confirmed that his Fleetwoods on Front St. was damaged in the wildfires but still made the safety of everyone the main priority.
Maui Wildfires Update
The Associated Press reported that the wildfires have already killed more than 90 people since it started a week ago.
The Hawaii Tourism Authority also estimated that 46,000 residents and visitors have left the island through the Kahului airport since the Lahaina tragedy became clear as of Wednesday. They encourage people to visit other islands in Hawaii instead.
"In the weeks ahead, the collective resources and attention of the federal, state and county government, the West Maui community, and the travel industry must be focused on the recovery of residents who were forced to evacuate their homes and businesses," the tourism authority said.
Meanwhile, the death toll is expected to rise in the next few days as crews with cadaver dogs are yet to cover the whole search area as of Saturday, said Maui Police Chief John Pelletier.
