Went to Hollywood today and walked across this star near the entrance to Bed, Bath & Beyond. Tourists kept stopping and taking photos but since it's a 'radio' symbol, I think it might not be the Michael Jackson they were thinking it was. The Hollywood Walk of Fame consists of more than 2,400 five-pointed terrazzo and brass stars embedded in the sidewalks along fifteen blocks of Hollywood Boulevard and three blocks of Vine. The stars are permanent public monuments to achievement in the entertainment industry, bearing the names of a mix of actors, musicians, directors, producers, musical and theatrical groups, fictional characters, and others. The Walk of Fame is maintained by the self-financing Hollywood Historic Trust with a reported 10 million visitors in 2003.
