HOW DO WE GET PRINCE HIS STAR ON HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME?

I'm disgusted to read in this WEEKS ENQUIRER that IKE TURNER received his....So is THAT PERSON UP to HOLLYWOOD'S STANDARDS but NOT PRINCE? I THINK PRINCE DESERVES his STAR and FOOTPRINTS RIGHT IN FRONT OF MANNS with a BIG PARTY COMMEMERATING PURPLE RAIN ,the TOUR, his JEHOVAH WHITNESS CONNECTION.....I PRAY THIS to COME TRUE!!!! biggrin

I think the stars are paid for directly by the record label or film stuido.

Hasn't this subject come up about one zillion times? biggrin

Who cares about those worthless sidewalk stars anyhow. They mean nothing nowadays, the celebrities pay for them themselves. David Spade has a star.

when ryan seacrest got a star on the walk recently, it was finally made clear to me that prince is far better off NOT having a star on the walk of fame.

Prince receives many, more legitimate and meaningful, accolades than some lame engraving in cement that gets handed out to anybody nowadays.

this was actually brought up on NPGMC a couple of years ago. the vibe i got was that prince doesn't wanna be on the walk. after the whole seacrest thing, i think prince is right.

we should find out first how important it is to the little man himself, he probably doesnt care about it, but if he would want one, we could find a way to make it happen

Well, he MAY NOT CARE ENTIRELY..HOWEVER,he SHOULD HAVE THAT CEMENT as a THANKFUL APPRECIATION FOR GREAT WORK ALL THESE YEARS...He IS LEGENDARY and SHOULD HAVE ONE! It WOULD BE COOL...He's the BEST! AND YES,I DO Think He is RIGHT ABOUT ALOT OF THINGS ALTHOUGH I DID THINK HE was being JUDGMENTAL FOr EVEN A GEMINI... I SUPPOSE it's HIs RIGHT and he DOESN"t EVER HAVE To BE WHAT I ZEL WANT Him to BE. It's NOT EVEN THAT.. I JUST DO NOT WANT HIm TO EVER GROW OLD.... I JUST CAN't FATHOM ALL THAT EVER.... I KNOW HE ISN'T and I"m HAPPY BOUT THAT. I wish more TEENAGERS would RESPECT HIM....

One of the fascinating issues of NPG Magazine encouraged fans to push for a star on the walk for Prince. Nowadays it doesn't seem like he's that interested. Without Prince's approval they won't give him a star anyway. Mostly depends on what he wants....

Zelaira, go to LA and purchase some black clothes and a sharp chisel.

In the dead of night, sneak down to the Walk of Fame and carve Prince's name and a star into the appropriate area of cement.

VOILA! Problem solved!

(if you want the foot and hand imprints alongside as well, take a 6 year old child with you to use as the stencils for the imprints. no one will know.)

I was in Hollywood recently and a tourist was filming the Walk of Fame. I looked at who he was filming, thinking Marilyn Monroe, Humphry Bogart, or some other legend.

Who was it? Tom Selleck.

Apropos of nothing, I submit this for you to mull over.

Anyone see the episode of "I Love Lucy" where Lucy steals John Wayne's footprints from the sidewalk in front of Graumann's Theater, so she has to keep devising ways to get John Wayne to step in wet cement (and then she keeps breaking the new cement imprints, too..) so she can replace the slab?

Maybe someone can conveniently place some wet cement somewhere where Prince has to walk? Don't know how to get his handprints, though... hmmm

Speaking of John Wayne, isn't his real name LaVerne or Cindy or something?

I wonder what they will do in 20 years or so when they run out of space to add stars. If Spade and Seacrest have a star, dear god, they might as well give the That's So Raven girl one too! They must be running out of space if theyre giving damn near everybody one.. It wont even be an attraction anymore.
