number 10
Disneyland Hollywood stars are typically
reserved for actual people or even
famous movie characters but this
family-friendly venue was honored for
its legacy and for a special occasion in
1955 the doors opened at Disneyland
located 32 miles south of Hollywood and
Walt Disney’s Empire immediately became
an iconic destination so for the venue’s
50th anniversary in 2005 the Hollywood
Chamber of Commerce paid due respect by
awarding Disneyland a special star
outside the El Capitan Theatre on
Hollywood Boulevard if there’s one
specific location in Southern California
that deserves a star Disneyland is it
number 9 Donald J Trump almost a full
decade before his biggest life
achievement the United States presidency
this business mogul was honored with his
own star on Hollywood Boulevard
regardless of one’s feelings about his
politics
Donald Trump has long been connected to
American entertainment whether it’s his
resorts or his work as a television
producer furthermore he’s an important
on-screen figure of the reality TV genre
located near the corner of Hollywood
Boulevard and Highland Avenue Trump star
is on a prime piece of land and it’s a
reminder of his influence within the
industry before he expanded his brand
even further
number 8 Vince McMahon just as some
people go to the movies to escape many
people choose to lose themselves in
professional wrestling and there’s no
bigger icon in that industry than
billionaire Vince McMahon the CEO
chairman and majority owner of the
massive entertainment Empire WWE given
his willingness to become part of his
own stories people may not always
realize his influence behind the scene
so it was a big moment in 2008 when
McMahon received a Hollywood star as it
paid homage to his influential career
even if his style of storytelling
differs slightly from traditional
Hollywood filmmakers number seven Big
Bird created by the late Jim Henson this
jolly character is best known for
appearing on Sesame Street portrayed by
Caroll Spinney know Big Bird isn’t your
typical Hollywood actor or even someone
that could pay for a star with his own
money
but he is responsible for making the
world a happier place so in 1994 Big
Bird received Hollywood recognition as
he was cemented in the Hollywood Walk of
Fame at first glance the star may not
make sense among so many Hollywood icons
but really the character is timeless in
a way that many real-life celebrities
are not number 6 Hugh Hefner as the
founder of Playboy magazine this man has
long been connected to the Hollywood
scene in fact Hugh Hefner’s Playboy
Mansion is one of the most beloved party
spots in Los Angeles but it can be easy
to forget about Hefner’s full scope of
work beyond print as his brand extends
to both television and cinema
so when Hefner received a star back in
1980 his legacy was already firmly in
place both in Hollywood and the
publishing world even so due to the
nature of the work he did his star might
surprise some tourists visiting Los
Angeles number 5 Lassie many people
stroll with their dogs along the
Hollywood Walk of Fame
but they probably don’t realize that a
pooch has its own star of course lassie
wasn’t just a singular real-life canine
that had a lasting career in the
industry but rather a group of dogs that
became stars of the silver screen and
television – lassie is one of the most
iconic sidekicks in Hollywood history
and she was rewarded back in 1960 with a
special treat given the legacy of Eric
Knight’s creation it’s a well-deserved
acknowledgement for the collie character
number 4 Shrek this character debuted
back in 1990 in his eponymous picture
book but only really became a worldwide
sensation upon the release of DreamWorks
2001 film and so a movie franchise was
born and with it a big-screen icon given
the film’s box office success shrek
ultimately earned a star in 2010
with actor Mike Myers representing his
fictional character Shrek has become one
of the most recognizable movie stars of
his time and certainly one of the most
popular figures amongst younger
demographics of course shrek is a
character that grown-ups can identify
with too but who really expects to see
an ogre on the Walk of Fame number three
the munchkins when the Wizard of Oz hit
theaters in 1939 a group of smaller
characters made a big impression with
their iconic song and role within the
narrative the munchkins established a
legacy within the Golden Age of
Hollywood one that would sadly go
unrecognized by the Walk of Fame for
decades finally in 2007 after a campaign
and petition the munchkins were honored
with their own star unfortunately only
seven of the original 124 munchkins
attended the ceremony and only nine
total survived to see it happen though
long overdue
the munchkins place in the Walk of Fame
now serves as an acknowledgment of their
importance to Hollywood’s early years
number two Godzilla since 1954 this
fictional monster has been a mainstay
within pop culture given the evolution
of technology Godzilla has transformed
over the years often acting as a
protector rather than the central
antagonist so to celebrate a 50th
anniversary film in 2004 Godzilla
received its own Hollywood star as the
creature has undoubtedly left a mark
within the entertainment industry and
certainly within Japanese pop culture as
well the star not only represents
Godzilla’s lasting relevance but also
the character’s influence across various
media platforms number one Rugrats
over the course of a decade this group
of mischievous babies went from a
creative concept to being a permanent
fixture on the hollywood boulevard
during the Rugrats initial run on
Nickelodeon the characters established
themselves as an integral part of 90s
pop culture with the clever premise and
adult subtext attracting various
demographics given the brand’s crossover
into various forms of modern media and
their enduring popularity the Rugrats
are more than cartoons their iconic
characters just as many Hollywood
celebrities have timeless appeal these
fictional characters were constructed to
last far into the future do you agree
