Star-Studded 2026 Walk of Fame Class Revealed!

Hollywood, CA
: The glitz and glamour of Hollywood are set to shine even brighter with the announcement of the Hollywood Walk of Fame Class of 2026. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has unveiled a star-studded list of 35 new honorees from the realms of Motion Pictures, Television, Recordings, Live Theater/Live Performance, and Sports Entertainment. Among the highly anticipated names are acclaimed actor Timothée Chalamet, iconic actress Demi Moore, and global music sensation Miley Cyrus, who shared her emotional reaction, stating the honor "feels like a dream."

The selection process, overseen by a committee of former Walk of Fame recipients, rigorously evaluates hundreds of nominations to choose individuals who have made significant and lasting contributions to the entertainment industry. Each star serves as a permanent tribute to their legacy on the famed Hollywood Boulevard.

A Dream Realized for Miley Cyrus

Pop superstar Miley Cyrus, a force in both music and television, conveyed her profound gratitude upon receiving the news. "Honored to be receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame," she wrote, reflecting on her childhood memories. "When I first came to LA from Nashville as a little girl, my family would stay at a hotel on Hollywood Blvd, and I would go on late-night walks with my dad when no one would recognize him. We'd have the gift shops to ourselves & buy knock-off Oscars and Marilyn Monroe merchandise. To now be cemented on this legendary boulevard, surrounded by the icons who inspired me, feels like a dream. This moment will live forever, thank you to everyone in my life who made it possible. I am grateful to share this star with you."

Timothée Chalamet: A Young Star's Ascendant Journey

At just 29 years old (he turned 29 in December), Timothée Chalamet is notably one of the youngest individuals to be inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This recognition underscores his meteoric rise and immense impact on contemporary cinema. Chalamet has captivated audiences and critics alike with his compelling performances in a diverse range of films, from his breakout role in Call Me by Your Name to blockbusters like Dune and Wonka, and his recent critically acclaimed portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. His early induction signifies a powerful and rapidly growing legacy in Hollywood.

Demi Moore: Celebrating a Resilient Career

Veteran actress Demi Moore will also receive a coveted star, acknowledging her distinguished and enduring career. Known for her memorable roles in classics such as Ghost, A Few Good Men, and Indecent Proposal, Moore has demonstrated remarkable versatility and resilience throughout her decades-long presence in Hollywood. Her star is a testament to her significant contributions and lasting influence on the film industry.

Deepika Padukone Makes History

Making a significant mark, Deepika Padukone is set to become the first Indian actress to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. While the first Indian person to receive the honor was Sabu Dastagir in 1960, Padukone's inclusion in the Motion Pictures category is a groundbreaking moment for Indian female talent on the global stage, further cementing her status as an international icon.
