Donnie Wahlberg dove straight into the action as he live-blogged the flooding that hit his home and millions of others on Monday night, when Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast. The 43-year-old former New Kids on the Block singer shot several videos of himself wading through water in the lobby of his building and in his apartment. "This is just material shit, everyone be safe," he said.
Mark Wahlberg's brother isn't the only celebrity to have been impacted by the storm, of course. Coco Austin, wife of Ice-T, gave a curious live-report from her balcony in Edgewater, New Jersey, while other celebrities took to Twitter to express their support and well wishes.
Safe & Sound on Higher Ground! Don't worry about me. Material things are meaningless. Check in with those you know in the storm! Stay safe!!

In the worst of times... Somehow... Some way... Make the best of times! Life's too short to be down! Shake it off and pick yourself back up!
