1 Views

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has unveiled the Class of 2026 for the Hollywood Walk of Fame.The list is made up of icons who have carved their names into the annals of immortality.

An assortment of 35 talents have been drafted to the class of 2026.

WHO MADE THE CUT FOR THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME?

Among these 35 is veteran actor Keith David, who is a well-known face on screen. Perhaps his supporting roles are his most defining, but his efforts in productions like The Thing and Gargoyles are his most noteworthy. The Emmy Award-winning actor will be joined by another iconic act in the form of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, who captivated the world with their melodic rap flows and gritty lyricism.

OTHER SIGNIFICANT NOMINEES FOR THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME

In the recording category, pop sensation and child star Miley Cyrus will receive her honours alongside crooner Josh Groban, Angélique Kidjo, and The Clark Sisters.

A few newer Hollywood talents have also made the grade. Timothée Chalamet made the grade under the motion picture category. Demi Moore, Rami Malek, Rachel McAdams, and Emily Blunt have also been included, while Deepika Padukone will make history as the first Indian actress to receive a star on the Walk of Fame.

The Television category features Chef Gordon Ramsay, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Robin Roberts, and George Stephanopoulos, who will share a double ceremony. Comedy and live performance are also represented, with Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias and Lea Salonga receiving stars in the live theatre/performance category.

Arguably the most dominant centre in the history of the National Basketball Association, Big Diesel, better known as Shaquille O’Neal, is to be the only honouree in the sports entertainment category.

THE FULL LIST OF NOMINEES FOR THE WALK OF FAME CLASS OF 2026

The list boasts an array of talents that are more than deserving. Keith David for instance was visibly moved when he received the news on his 70th birthday. That’s quite a while to wait for a star. On the other end of the spectrum, a relatively new talent to Hollywood, the 29-year-old Timothée Chalamet will also be getting his flowers. Some might view that as puzzling.
