Hollywood has always excelled at self-adoration, perhaps best demonstrated by the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It started in 1958 and now has over 2,500, five-pointed stars. Nearly half of the honorees are from motion pictures and only Gene Autry is in all five categories. Approximately ten million people a year walk along Hollywood Boulevard with their heads bowed, looking for their favorite stars. Bruce Willis, the movie action hero, had his pink terrazzo star added in 2006 at 6915 Hollywood Boulevard in front of the Grauman’s Chinese Theater.
