We all know Justin Bieber as the chart-topping pop sensation, but this time, he’s stepping up in a whole new way. Before we get into his latest power move, let’s rewind a bit. Back in January, a nightmare unfolded across Southern California as relentless wildfires, fueled by severe drought and ferocious winds, tore through the region. The devastation has been unreal—at least 29 lives lost, entire neighborhoods reduced to ash, and an army of firefighters battling the flames across 45 square miles in LA County. The two biggest blazes were the Palisades Fire and the Eaton Fire, while the Hughes Fire has forced tens of thousands to evacuate in Castaic.
Even Hollywood hasn’t been spared—celebrities like Paris Hilton have seen their homes turned to rubble. It’s been nothing short of heartbreaking. But now, amidst all the destruction, the spirit of LA is shining through. Some stars aren’t just watching from the sidelines—they’re coming out to help. And leading the charge? None other than Justin Bieber teaming up with the NHL to bring aid to those affected.
The LA Kings Hockey Communications Department hit up X on February 22, dropping some seriously exciting news for hockey and entertainment fans alike. Skate for LA Strong is officially coming in hot—well, more like cool and icy—as the Kings and the NHL join forces with a star-studded lineup for a cause that truly matters. “The @LAKings, in partnership with the @NHL, today announced the full lineup of players, coaches, and musical performers for Skate For LA Strong, “A Celebration to Support the Fire Recovery Efforts in Los Angeles.””
This isn’t just another game—it’s a legendary gathering of talent, heart, and pure LA energy. And let’s talk about this fire lineup. None other than Justin Bieber and Steve Carell are hitting the ice, alongside “former NHL greats and Hockey Hall of Fame members Rob Blake, Cammi Granato, Mark Messier, and Jeremy Roenick.” But wait—there’s more!

The event is also bringing in some honorary coaching legends, because why not have a little Hollywood magic behind the bench? “Joining the four teams as honorary coaches will be Danny DeVito, Snoop Dogg, Will Ferrell, Al Michaels, Cobie Smulders, Hannah Stocking, Vince Vaughn, and Andrew Whitworth.” With this kind of all-star energy, Skate for LA Strong is shaping up to be an unforgettable night of hockey, heart, and high-profile hype!
