Actress Goldie Hawn weighed in on the pervasiveness of crime in Los Angeles, revealing that her own home has been burglarized twice in four months.
The 78-year-old made the comments during an appearance on the SiriusXM podcast “Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa.”
“What if we couldn’t live in L.A, where would we live? We both decided, I think it’s Palm Desert (California). … It’s so safe,” Hawn told Ripa of herself and Kurt Russell, her longtime boyfriend of four decades.
“It’s just because L.A. is terrible. I mean, we were robbed once,” she added.
Hawn went on to describe what happened the first time her home was burglarized. She said she and Russell were out of the house for just two hours before coming back home to discover what happened.
“We came back and went in the house. I went up to the stairs and I walked into my closet. I just lost it,” Hawn said. “They had broken in from the balcony to our bedroom, our closets.”
She continued, “And they completely knocked down my door, which is a safe door, so they’re very, very sophisticated, and they got a lot of my goodies, if you know what I mean.”
The Academy Award-winning actress said she assumed it was something she would only experience once, but that wasn’t the case. “So, I’m thinking, ‘Oh, my God, so the chances are, I guess that’s it,'” Hawn told Ripa. “It’s gotta be. The odds are that’s not gonna happen again.”
But then, four months later, that’s exactly what happened. The actress said she was home alone with her dog when she heard a noise.
“I hear this big thump upstairs — and I was alone; Kurt wasn’t there — and I went, ‘What the hell was that?'” she explained.
“It was just like, was that a sonic boom? Did somebody jump somewhere? And as it turned out, the next day, we discovered that they were trying to get in my bedroom while I was in the house.”
“That’s terrifying,” Ripa replied.
“I couldn’t believe it. What is happening here?” Hawn said, adding that she has had additional protection since the incidents. “I’ve had a guard, especially when I’m alone now,” Hawn said. “I’m never without a guard. We have a nice relationship with our guard.”
If you are gonna live there, try a made in america hi point 10mm carbine. Perfect for that bump in the night
Goldie certainly has the means to move. Maybe she should join all those Californians going to Austin.
“they got a lot of my goodies, if you know what I mean.”
Um, no, I don’t know what you mean.
How dare she point out crimes ...everything is safe and affordable in biden’s America. The economy is so great. I’m going to go buy a 4 dollar can of tuna now.
How can she and Russell NOT have the most sophisticated security system made?
I assume she meant jewelry and accessories..............

It’s just because L.A. is terrible,
Indeed there is NO safe place in it even some security guards get shot at attempted home invasions.
Her favorite stuff that was also valuable that she collected and accumulated over her life, being a woman, jewelry was probably a lot of it, along with other collectibles and memorabilia, and personal items from her world travels shopping.
I see a business opportunity here. Body disposal at sea. The sharks and crabs will take care of everything.
Kurt Russell is a gun guy and a hunter, I bet he will spend what it takes to stop this problem at his home.
Two hard core break ins by serious burglars probably has Goldie shaken badly, all of us would be freaking out if our wives had seen this much home danger in 4 months.
I believe she was the - sock it to me - girl on laugh in
This is obviously the fault of conservative, anti-democracy, pro-insurrection, climate-denying, homophobic white males!
stay in the mess you created. you got exactly what you voted for Goldie.
IIRC, Goldie and Ken are Republicans...............
Judy Carne was sock-it-to-me girl.
Yes, her and Judy Carne (1939–2015)................
