2013 Walk of Fame Honorees

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce announced the 24 honorees who will be given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a list light on motion picture names but inclusive of radio and live performance figures.

Marg Helgenberger, who was honored with a star last year, announced the names at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel on Friday. No dates were given for when the stars would be placed.





The list of motion picture honorees is particularly thin on actors and actresses, of which there are just four.

Also among the selections is a make-up artist, a rare choice for the Walk: Rick Baker, whose make-up credits include Star Wars, the Men In Black series and Tropic Thunder.



Rick Baker
Javier Bardem
Viola Davis
James Franco
Ron Howard
Helen Mirren



Honorees in live performance/theater was also well-represented: Olympia Dukakis and Penn & Teller.

it seems ridiculous that Ron Howard, Helen Mirren and Buddy Holly just received stars when some of these other honorees have only been in the business a couple of years and are just popular now
