Pickler did have some musical success. And the Levine fellow, if it's the same one, wrote for a few of the 20 top TV shows according to a recent PARADE article. Or is it the game developer guy?
Nice piece of spoofery. You even managed to include the Walk O' Fame's "tradition" of misspelling honoree's names (it's Boris Badenov).
Just curious, though: Were Jay Ward or Paul Frees ever awarded stars of their own on the WOF? (I've heard there's an "entry fee" to get in, and neither of these gentlemen were known for tossing money around.)
Ken probably used this to get his star: http://www.redkid.net/generator/star/
And not that it's the official list, but this page at Wikipedia has "a" list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_stars_on_the_Hollywood_Walk_of_Fame
I get that these are jokes, but local LA DJ's have stars and yet my friend John Candy does not. Possibly because he's passed away and doesn't have any new movies coming out, studios aren't interested in ponying up the $30,000. or whatever the fee is these days.
Where's Johnny Grant when you really need him? Oh that's right, he's gone too. But at least he has a star. Actually, he has TWO.
Is this the only Hall of Fame that an inductee (or some organization, fan club, studio, etc.) has to pay for to get in? It costs $40,000 now to have a star.

Natasha Fatale was robbed!
ReplyDeleteThe movie symbol for you. -
ReplyDeleteSo you were nominated because of your work on movie scripts.
Was that for "The Mighty Ducks or "Summer Lovers"?
And nothing for the LeafGuard guy? What an outrage.

ReplyDeleteThese all seem legit to me other that that one on the extreme bottom right. Never heard of that guy.
ReplyDeleteBoris’ name is misspelled. Cartoon character names, and yours, are too important to misspell.
ReplyDeleteNice piece of spoofery.

Where's the MY PILLOW guy?
ReplyDeleteNo Joe Isuzu? What the hell!
ReplyDeleteIf you're going to take a pickaxe to anyone's star it should be that last one.
ReplyDeleteAnd where's Flipper's star?!
M.B.
Once The Donald got a star it was over for me, pick axe or no pick axe...
ReplyDeleteSlow-on-the-uptake guy here, gradually waking up Saturday morning. Hi!
ReplyDeleteYes, it fooled me for a minute too.
But in seriousness, is your star a real one? If so, congratulations.
Joey Butafuoco is still waiting.
ReplyDeleteLarry "Bud" Melman is long overdue for one. Loved by millions!
ReplyDeleteRelated... maybe it's time there be a separate star for David Letterman's beard. It's certainly big enough... in the business.
Swear to god: "Bristol Stomp" was playing on Total Hits when I noticed the Bristol Palin star. As if anyone needed any encouragement...

The closest Levine I see is Adam Levine
Sorry.
You mean Sarah hasn't bought a star for Bristol, or even herself yet? Trump bought his own star for himself!
ReplyDeleteAt least none of them killed anyone, unlike Walk of Fame honoree Spade Cooley.
ReplyDeleteQuery:
ReplyDeleteIf Bristol Palin married Mike Myers -
- would they have to go back to the pharm?

ReplyDeleteHey, don't group Boris Badanov in with those other losers.
