Former talk show host Ricki Lake is being sued for damage related to a house fire in Malibu in September 2010. The beachside house, which Lake was renting, was destroyed in the fire. Several media outlets have reported that Lake told firefighters responding to the blaze that she was attempting to start the home’s heater when it sparked the fire. Investigators ruled the fire an accident, but the owner of the home is suing Lake for damages.
