How Does A Celebrity Land A Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?
To be honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is a
tribute as coveted and sought after as any of the entertainment industry's
equally prestigious awards, including the Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, Tony and Golden
Mike.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame is a permanent monument to the glorious show business
past, such as Charlie Chaplin, and appreciation of present talent, such as
Johnny Depp. It recognizes contribution to the arts, and embraces both public
and peer appreciation.
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and the Hollywood Historic Trust are the
guardians of this star-studded landmark. Yet, neither organization nominates
stars. And unlike the privileged members of the Academy, anyone (yes, really,
anyone, including you) can nominate a celebrity. In truth, the fans decide who
is a star.
