As Hurricane Katrina storms through New Orleans, many Hollywood stars in town are fleeing the city in search of safety. From HILARY SWANK to "Xena" alum LUCY LAWLESS, we know where the stars are now as they tell us their harrowing stories of escape.

"I turned on the television and saw Category 5," Lawless tells ET.

The actress was one of the mass swarm of people who have fled the devastating storm. She had been shooting the CBS movie "Vampire Bats" in the Big Easy when the frantic call to evacuate the city came.

"The traffic was going one mile per hour sometimes," Lawless says of trying to leave the city. "Then it was two miles per hour, then five. It took nine hours for what should have taken 50-55 minutes."

Lucy had no electrical power and was only able to communicate via telephone. With her family back home and out of harm's way, she left the city with three production members and is staying in Baton Rouge, LA. But the popular star is concerned for the people who weren't as lucky as her.

"I just realized all those people in incredibly low-lying areas are in such threat," she says. "I just worry about them."

Just last week Lucy told ET how fond of the city she was. "I love this town, I love the heat," the New Zealander said. "I was afraid of coming, working in sweltering heat and swamps, but it's just been pure joy. I would move here if I could work here all of the time."

In other news, Lucy sent a picture from her camera phone to Sharon Delaney, letting her know that she was just fine.

After a nine-hour car ride, all you really want is a bed.
Time for a quick phone-photo to let the fans know I'm still here!

Lucy on ET tonight, Aug. 29
to thank the fans that made offers of shelter and a charter plane.

Lucy, cast and crew safely away from New Orleans

Talked with her again this morning. Said she woke up in the wee hours to the sound of three explosions which was probably trees hitting power lines. Still lots of wind and rain but a safe place to be and they hope to go back to finish the movie.

Talked to Lucy yesterday afternoon and she wanted everyone to know all the cast and crew of the movie are safely out of New Orleans. They're staying with friends of the production company. It was a long, slow ride out of town, but they made it. Their thoughts are with those still in the city and the surrounding area and everyone is praying that the storm weakens. She's grateful for the offers of help that were received as they were readying the troupe to move out.
