Walk of Fame

MATTHEW PERRY HAD MORE FRIENDS THAN HE REALIZED

Hollywood is working overtime trying to figure out the best way to honor the late Matthew Perry. My source reveals the current plan is to petition to get Matthew a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame – two of his Friends costars, (Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston ) have already been honored. In addition, there’s talk of bestowing upon him a posthumous honorary Emmy – he was nominated 4 times but never won. Finally, HBO and their streaming service MAX are hoping to get his remaining Friends costars to film an hour long special. My source says that one is the most complicated, because his former cast mates DO want to honor his legacy, but it’s just too soon for them to decide exactly HOW.

Boots Cement Chinese Theater Diane Keaton Feet Walk of Fame

WHY DIANE KEATON CHOSE BARE FEET FOR WALK OF FAME

Diane Keaton was giddy with excitement today because she put her handprints and footprints in cement in front of the Chinese Theater on Hollywood Blvd. She took a close look at the wet cement and decided no way was she going to dip her $1300 Maxfield black boots into THAT! So she sat down and removed her expensive boots and polka dot socks and used her BARE FEET for the footprints. Come to think of it, she might be the ONLY pair of bare feet on the Walk of Fame. Her adopted kids, Dexter, 27, and Duke, 22, were at the ceremony to cheer her on.

Anti-vax Dax Shepard Demonstration Kristen Bell Pro-Vax Walk of Fame

KRISTEN BELL CANNOT ESCAPE HER CONVICTIONS

Frozen 2 star Kristen Bell had a once-in-a-lifetime honor today – she got her star on the Walk of Fame at a ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard. Too bad politics reared its ugly head. Kristen and her husband Dax Shepard are very vocal about being pro-vaccination. They carefully researched the subject, take it very seriously for their children, and urge other parents to do the same. Why anti-vax demonstrators chose THIS particular occasion to carry signs and shout their feelings against Kristen is odd, and we’re betting they didn’t change any minds…

Hollywood Marilyn Monroe Vandalism Walk of Fame

THANK YOU TO WHOEVER STOLE THAT MARILYN MONROE STATUE!

Since it appeared in 1994, we have been appalled by this monstrosity that apparently passes for “public art.” The gaudy metallic gazebo is located at the important intersection of Hollywood Blvd and La Brea, intended as some kind of “gateway” to Hollywood. We always assumed there was some sort of political corruption between whoever paid for it and the artist. The embarrassing “art” depicts five statues of actresses in a highly sexualized and disrespectful manner. Whoever vandalized this nightmare should be rewarded, and hopefully the Hollywood chamber of commerce will re-think this situation and install a more appropriate piece of art.

Ann-Margaret Walk of Fame

ANN-MARGRET AND PAUL REISER HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON

How often do you get to see Elvis’s ex-girlfriend Ann-Margaret and Mad About You star Paul Reiser (with another guy we don’t know) walking arm and arm down Hollywood Boulevard? Unusual pairings like this often happen when there is a Walk of Fame ceremony for someone who has been around for awhile. Alan Arkin was honored this week and his ceremony had an admirable turnout of celebrities from many decades.

Bradley Cooper Lady Gaga Sam Elliott Walk of Fame

SAM ELLIOTT’S A STAR IS BORN COSTARS BRAVE THE RAIN FOR HIM

Love this photo of Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga embracing Sam Elliott at Sam’s hand and footprint ceremony on the Hollywood Walk of Fame IN THE RAIN. Turns out Sam is quite a popular guy – he and his wife Katharine Ross attended the Golden Globes last night, but the table of A Star is Born participants were disappointed- lots of nominations, but only one win for Best Song. Nevertheless, Bradley and Gaga braved the elements today, as did a number of celebs, to praise Sam and give him a hug on Hollywood Blvd.

Jimmy Kimmel Sarah Silverman Walk of Fame

SARAH SILVERMAN AND JIMMY KIMMEL STILL ONE-UP EACH OTHER

Now here’s a pair of exes that REALLY like each other. Sarah Silverman got her star on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood and guess who was master of Ceremonies? Her now- married ex-boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel, that’s who. Jimmy and Sarah were famously together for seven funny years and finally broke up in 2009. Sarah jokes “I slept with him when he was chubby!”

Eric McCormack Walk of Fame Will & Grace

ERIK MCCORMACK KNOWS WHO TO THANK

Sometimes you’re really HAPPY to see someone get a star on the Walk of Fame and that is the case with Will & Grace star Eric McCormack. He seems to be a truly nice guy and we’ve never heard a negative word about him. And his series has always been so relatable and a favorite of ours. The brains behind this always timely series, Max Mutchnick, was also at the ceremony today. Eric announced that he will be grateful to the LGBTQ community ”for the rest of my life” for accepting him in the role. Michael Douglas, who played a gay detective (Will’s love interest) on the show said “Dating Will is the gayest thing I have ever done – and I played Liberace!”

Jeff Goldblum Walk of Fame

JEFF GOLDBLUM IS HARD TO BEAT AS A MAD SCIENTIST

What a coincidence! Jeff Goldblum, 65, was honored with his star on the Walk of Fame just as his movie Jurassic World is about to be released! His wife of four years, Emilie, and his two sons Charlie and River were part of the ceremony. Our favorite Jeff Goldblum movie is The Fly from 1986 and he’s actually been toying with the idea of doing a follow-up. Jeff has ideas about how to bring back his deceased character but says he would only do the film if David Cronenberg directed this one too.

Nina Simone Walk of Fame Zoe Saldana

JAMES CAMERON CALLS ZOE SALDANA “QUEEN OF THE UNIVERSE”

Zoe Saldana should frame this beautiful photo of her family, taken on the incredible day that she got her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Not many actors can claim that they have several successful movie franchises under their belt, but Avatar star Zoe can, and she is set for life. The only visible flaw in her career is her movie Nina, which was filmed in 2012, and just released in April. When she accepted the role of singer and political activist Nina Simone, there was a huge uproar because she was “too pretty and light skinned” to play the part. The dark makeup and fake nose didn’t help, and the movie flopped – mostly because of the lame script and not Zoe’s valiant but unappreciated efforts. But hey, people make mistakes, and Zoe has everything else going for her. She wanted her husband Marco Perego and three sons Cy, Bowie, and Zen to share her very special Walk of Fame day.
