Neil Patrick Harris gets a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

Is this an American only Walk of Fame?

What the fuck? There are other real stars with over 30 year careers and they still don't have a star.

He's one of the good ones. Well deserved imho.

Good for him.

It's paid for, that's why.

Holy crap, R2. Are you really that naive?

He deserves it. He's a national treasure.

Of what? Yeah I know its all PR and that the star pays for them but that still surprises me that someone like NPH can get one while other older stars don't. Paid by them or not, it's still wrong.

Other stars such as...?

Clint Eastwood, Jane Fonda, Jodie Foster, Robert Redford, and I believe Robert De Niro doesn't have one either. That's just wrong!

IN the database, not ON the database.

Neil does deserve it, having said that, any celebrity who has the cash, can get a star. Ryan Seacrest is proof of that.

what r12 said. All you have to do is pay.

Oh boy, I'm gettin fucked tonight.

[quote]Neil does deserve it, having said that, any celebrity who has the cash, can get a star. Ryan Seacrest is proof of that.

Seacrest has a Star for radio, and he IS huge radio star. If you look at the list of people with Stars for radio, most of them are unknown.

Although I also think Seacrest didn't deserve Star at the time he actually received it.

Each year, an average of 200 nominations are submitted to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Walk of Fame Selection Committee. Anyone, including fans, can nominate anyone active in the field of entertainment, as long as the nominee or his or her management is in agreement with the nomination. (A letter of agreement from the nominated celebrity or representative must accompany the application.) Nominees must have a minimum of 5 years' experience in the category for which they are nominated. Posthumous nominees must be deceased at least 5 years. At a meeting each June, the Committee selects approximately 20 celebrities to receive stars on the Walk of Fame during the following year. One posthumous award is given each year as well. The nominations of those not selected are "rolled over" to the following year for reconsideration; those not selected two years in a row are dropped, and must be renominated to receive further consideration. Living recipients must agree to personally attend a presentation ceremony within five years of selection. A relative of deceased recipients must attend posthumous presentations. Presentation ceremonies are open to the public.

A fee (currently USD $25,000), payable at time of selection, is collected to pay for the creation and installation of the star, as well as general maintenance of the Walk of Fame. The fee is usually paid by the nominating organization, which may be a fan club, or a film studio, record company, broadcaster, or other sponsor involved with the honoree's current or ongoing project. The Starz cable network, for example, paid for Dennis Hopper's star as part of the promotion for its series Crash. It was unveiled in March 2010, shortly before his death.

Sweet.

I was just shocked to hear Oprah's just now getting one. I would've thought she got one YEARS ago.

Hilarious that Penny Cruz is getting one too.

You have to be a famous and important celebrity to get a star.

I have one.

Yeah, I'm surprised Oprah doesn't have one yet.

Neil definitely deserved it for TV work though.

bump

NPH

What about putting his feet in cement?

If "I Love Lucy" was still on the air, Neil would definitely get a two part, dare I even say, three part episode about him.

What about filling your male vagina with cement, R24. And then dropping you somewhere they usually only drop Ts.

r26

Putting your feet in the cement at the "Chinese Theatre" is a much greater honor than a star in Hollywood.

You mean "WELL DESERVED" star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He should have THREE on for each hit show and one for singlehandedly legitimizing homosexuality.

So thread bumping troll, this morning you searched for NPH and flooded DL with a shitload of them. You must be very proud.

Don't they pay for these? It's hardly an honour.

I hope the homeless piss and shit on it.

Only one? He needs one for movies, one for singing, one for TV, one for hosting and one for being awesome.

I remember when having a star meant something

More attention for me!!! My dream come true!!!

I have one in Alburqueque

I'm going to sit my bare ass on it next time I'm in LA.

LOL so am I
