good evening everybody! normally i get to catch most of the ceremonies along hollywood blvd when a new celebrity star is revealed but unfortunately this morning i missed one of my favorite actresses - ms. holly hunter being bestowed with the 2,363rd star along 'the walk of fame' - i was completely shocked to find out she didn't already have one - let's not forget ms. hunter is an academy award winner (for her amazing work in 1993's the piano) plus she's a two-time emmy winner! steven spielberg, kate capshaw, ed harris, and billie jean king were on hand today to help holly celebrate the honor! at age 50 she still looks way fabulous - ms. hunter has always been a little offbeat and kooky but that's what i love about her! i hope y'all are enjoying your friday night - right now i'm just chilling out which is exactly what i needed to do! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo

hey hey! here are a few pictures i just snapped of sean 'diddy' combs getting the 2,362nd star along hollywood blvd's infamous walk of fame (it was massively crowded down there and people were waving balloons and signs like crazy people - plus it's pretty hot outside so i didn't stay for long) he's actually the first male rap artist to be honored with a star - i'm not overly crazy about mr. combs but he doesn't really bother me either - gosh remember when he was with jennifer lopez (who could forget that sexy green versace dress she wore to the grammys back in 2000 while on his arm) it seems like ages ago - oh my word time totally flies - in fact it's already time for me to eat some lunch! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo






hey hey! check out a few pictures i just snapped moments ago of actress angela bassett getting the 2,358th star along hollywood blvd's walk of fame! i love ms. bassett - especially in her golden globe winning and oscar nominated performance as legendary tina turner in what's love got to do with it? on hand to help ms. bassett celebrate today were laurence fishburne, forest whitaker and rick fox (who stars in the new movie meet the browns along w/ ms. bassett) she was glowing - and so beautiful in person - forest's speech was so touching it had angela in tears - he's an excellent speaker (then mr. fox had to speak and it paled in comparison...) enjoy the pics below! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!









hey hey! oh my gosh - this is the sweetest thing i have seen all day - seven of the remaining munchkins from the 1939 classic & much beloved film the wizard of oz were honored with a star along hollywood blvd's 'walk of fame' - they were escorted in on a carriage being drawn by 'a horse of a different color'! (only 9 out of 124 are still alive today) of course they are all quite old as you can tell by the pics i snapped posted below - yet it's so great they were able to get out and be honored by hollywood today - they must have felt special and deservedly so! (plus they got the star in front of grauman's chinese theatre where the movie originally premiered 68 years ago!) of course 'the wizard of oz' is one of my favorite movies of all-time - they certainly don't make movies like that anymore! (i'm sure the munchkins know that too!) popbytes over & out for now...xxoo! PS i just got back home for lunch and as i was waiting on the corner of hollywood & highland to cross the street - i looked over and there was debra messing and her hubby daniel zelman - she looked great - it just caught me off guard since out of a fairly big crowd of people waiting - i seemed to be the only one to notice her - i guess she was there for the festivities! (actually it turns out she was there for a huge writers' strike march - which i'll be posting pictures of later - there's a lot of people down there right now!)










hey hey! i just snapped a few pictures of legendary 'bond' man sir roger moore getting the 2,350th star along hollywood blvd's walk of fame - just three days before his 80th birthday! yes he's looking old but not bad for being eighty! he starred in seven james bond flicks between 1973 & 1985 - and although some won't agree with me - he is actually my favorite out of all the other 'bond' men - i love his campy turns as agent 007 in films such as a view to a kill, octupussy and moonraker! at today's ceremony he was joined by his wife kiki tholstrup - and famous friends ruta lee & stefanie powers - he's another example of someone who should have had their star on the blvd long before the olsen twins, britney spears, or ryan seacrest! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!








hey kids! i just snapped the pictures below of television icon & legend barbara walters (and one of popbytes' favorite ladies) getting the 2,340th star on hollywood's walk of fame! (let me tell you it was hot as hell down there) i saw two of her 'view' ladies - joy behar & elisabeth 'annoying' hasselbeck ( rosie o'donnell was nowhere to be found...) but the big sighting was paris hilton's mom kathy hilton & her sister nicky hilton (pictured at the bottom - are they all best of friends now since ms. walters spoke to paris in jail via a collect phone call?!? will we see paris on 'the view'? will she give an exclusive interview to barbara? so many questions!) i guess today there are no visiting hours at the jail! (photographers were swarming all over those two) popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!










hey y'all - i just snapped a few pictures of academy award winning actor forest whitaker getting his star (#2,335) today on the hollywood blvd walk of fame! it was a gorgeous & sunny day for the ceremony and his pals kiefer sutherland & angela bassett also stopped by to say a few words about mr. whitaker - this latest star unveiling event coincides with tomorrow's release of the last king of scotland on DVD - the film where his performance as ugandan dictator idi amin garnered him the best actor honor at this year's oscars) (i must see the film - i've heard only great things about it!) popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
