*As was reported earlier, A 6.4 magnitude earthquake visited Southern California and parts of Nevada at approximately 10:30am today, July 4th, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The quake’s epicenter was near Searles Valley in the Mojave Desert, which is northeast of Los Angeles County.
As you can imagine, some celebs headed to social media to talk about the experience. We’re talking Ava DuVernay, The Rock, Gabrielle Union and LaToya Jackson among others
And speaking of LaToya, she says didn’t feel safe in her home, noting that the ceiling felt like it was going to cave in.

Ava DuVernay thought it was the longest one she’s ever been through.
Been living in Los Angeles all my life. That was the longest earthquake I’ve ever experienced. Not jerky. Smooth and rolling. But it was loooong. It was so long I thought for the first time ever “Is this the big one?” Damn. Respect Mother Nature. She’s the boss.

And we have to say that even The Rock was moved. Leterally.
6.6 is strong. We felt a lil’ movement here in the valley, but all good. Prayers to those in D valley, Bakersfield, S Valley, Kern etc. Be safe, stay prepared. #mothernature
