The Hollywood Walk of Fame is home to some of the most fascinating personalities in entertainment history. However, we’re willing to bet none of them has lived a more interesting life than Parliament Funkadelic’s George Clinton. Now that the day has finally come, the only question is will his star look like the others, or will it be multicolored and much cooler than the rest.
George Clinton
If Hollywood Boulevard feels extra funky now, it’s because George Clinton has finally been honored with a star on the Los Angeles landmark. Honestly, it feels like the cool quotient of all the stars around his just went up.
Darius Rucker
The country star was surrounded by his kids as he received his star on the Walk of Fame, which is located near country music legend Charley Pride. Rucker and his Hootie and the Blowfish bandmates are set to embark on The Summer Camp with Trucks Tour in 2024.
Melba Moore
If you’re not in the business or don’t follow these sort of things closely, you may not know that getting a star on the Walk of Fame costs $75,000. Most of the time, that fee is paid by a production company or movie studio. Sometimes fans or other celebrities will help out to get someone their flowers. That’s what happened with singer Melba Moore, who received a star for Live Theatre/Live Performance. She revealed on Instagram that comedian Katt Williams who sponsored her star, writing, “A public thank you to KW He is the sole sponsor of my Star. Katt in me you have a Friend.”
Sheila E.
It’s wild that percussionist and singer Sheila E. is just now getting a star on the Walk of Fame. She inspired countless young women to become musicians and was one of the contributors who helped shape Prince’s sound. Watching her play percussion is truly watching andartistic master at work. She’s one of one. And if you put “The Glamorous Life” on in a club now, it still hits.
Tupac Shakur
As one of the most influential artists in music history, Tupac was recognized for his work as a musician and actor. His long overdue honor was accepted by his sister Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur.
Chris “Ludacris” Bridges
Luda received his star for motion pictures, which is a rare feat for rappers turned actors. He was honored by Queen Latifah, LL Cool J and Vin Diesel; he took time to thank them all for inspiring him. He also celebrated his “Fast & Furious” co-stars, his own family and those who helped him get to this point.
Martin Lawrence
Comedy legend Martin Lawrence finally received his long overdue star in April. Seriously, from stand up, to TV, to movies, he’s influenced generations of comedians. How did it take this long?
Michael B. Jordan
The actor was honored ahead of the release of his directorial debut “Creed III.”
Octavia Spencer
The Oscar-winner received her star before the holiday musical “Spirited” was released.
Holly Robinson-Peete
The actress/producer was celebrated by her husband Rodney Peete, Magic Johnson and LeVar Burton.
Ice-T
While being honored in the recording category, Ice-T was surrounded by family, friends and his “Law & Order: SVU” co-stars.
Kenan Thompson
Considering how long he’s been entertaining us, it’s kind of crazy that Kenan just got a star in 2022.
Ashanti
You might say the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce was “Foolish” to wait so long to recognize Ashanti.
DJ Khaled
*In your best DJ Khaled voice* “We got another one! That’s right! We made it all the way to the Walk of Fame, son!”
Nipsey Hussle
It’s really nice that the late Los Angeles native is honored at one of the city’s most famous landmarks.
Salt-N-Pepa
Hip-hop pioneers Salt-N-Pepa were celebrated by fellow groundbreakers Roxanne Shanté and MC Lyte.
Tyler Perry
I wonder if they’re renaming that block of the street “Tyler Perry’s Hollywood Boulevard”?
Cedric The Entertainer
If the word “Entertainer” is in your name, you definitely belong on the Walk of Fame.
Morris Chestnut
Since Morris Chestnut doesn’t age, I assume his star will always look fresh and new.
Tracy Morgan
The SNL vet was honored by Martin Lawrence and Jordan Peele.
Jenifer Lewis
It took way too long for Black Hollywood’s mother to receive her flowers.
Missy Elliott
Missy Elliott is a true game-changer and groundbreaker who deserves all the awards and honors.
