The Walk of Fame is pretty much a self-serving thing, Borderstone. You have to contribute something (tangible) to the Hollywood community AND be famous in some field (radio, TV, movies, etc.). Then you have to have someone nominate you (your P.R. agent, your mother, your best friend, anyone can do it), then go through the steps as Paty quoted above. Plenty of stars have been nominated, but, have refused to show up for one reason or another, so their stars have been shelved and are awaiting to go through the re-nomination process before they can be placed.
