Paris Hilton’s dog Tinkerbell got onez???
Good to see it. Although I’m not sure the band is all that worried about it! I hope you got to see them this year in Florida. A great show - at the top of their game if you ask me.
It’s about time Rush Limbaugh got a star.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame is a scam just like the frequent award shows those in Hollyweird throw for each other. You (or a surrogate— agent or looney fan) have to apply, and pay for this so-called “honor”. That is why there are many far from stars on the current list or on the sidewalks. I think the local merchants are responsible for maintenance, rather than the city itself. Typical liberals.
Surprising that Harry Shearer’s star isn’t also in TV. He was in the Saturday Night Live repertory for several years and has long performed numerous minor characters’ voices on The Simpsons.
How could you forget Harry’s great performance in “This is Spinal Tap?”
Typical liberals>>>
HAHAHAHA I just love FR
Or Best In Show or A Mighty Wind
CAMERON DIAZ?!! JOHN STAMOS?!!
To put stars for these two nobodies on the same Walk of Fame as Chaplin, Fairbanks, Cagney, Duke Wayne, Bette Davis, Bob Hope, etc. is a disgrace to the human race.
John Stamos and The Village People.
Yep. That sure is SOOOOOME exclusive list.
Something like that... 8~)
...and Kenny G...
Ah yes, the cucumber smuggler!
