Great news for Shakira fans. The singer has become the first Colombian to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And she looked quite comfortable with her spot, lounging beside it for photographs. She thanked the crowd for their support saying, “This is incredible. I would like to thank all of you.” She also added that her mother once said, “Shaki, one day you’ll have your own star here,” while visiting Hollywood Boulevard when Shakira was just 7. Mama’s always right. Here’s an interesting factoid — Shakira’s is the 2,454th star on the Walk of Fame. But that doesn’t make it any less cool. Felicidades!
The Goop is on! Gwyneth Paltrow has finally received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at the ripe age of 38. GP, as usual, looked tall and enviably skinny in a knee skimming white, fitted dress yesterday and commented that she was chuffed that her, “grandchildren can one day come and see my name on the sidewalk”. Gwyn, we know you were actually thinking, “It was about f-ing time.” Consider this—she got her Oscar for Shakespeare in Love 11 years ago. 11 long years.
Paltrow’s come a long way from Elizabethan England. Gywenth put on 20lbs (*snort*) to play a washed-up singer in Country Strong and even did a sassy version of Cee-lo‘s “Forget You” on Glee. Because she’s an actress, okay? Now she’s got an Oscar AND a star to prove it. Congrats, Gwynnie.
Danger, Danger : insufferable levels going through the roof.
