With over 2500 stars lining Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street, The Walk of Fame is one of the most popular attractions in Los Angeles. Approximately 30 additional stars are added to the walk each year. If you happen to be in Hollywood during one of these ceremonies, it’s a guaranteed celebrity spotting.
