Members jcar03 Posted June 24, 2012 Members Share Posted June 24, 2012 Someone has to shell out around $20,000 that is really all it takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 Jane Lynch? Are they serious? One role for less than 100 episodes qualifies someone for a star on the walk of fame these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 I'd give one to her over James Franco, but for her work in the Christopher Guest movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 I can see James Franco over Ellen Degeneres. At least he is an actor and not just some chat host. Why not Morton Downey Jr and Richard Bey, or maybe they can give one to Rachel Ray for her semiinal work making pasta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 Ellen's had a successful career for 25-30 years, in standup, TV sitcoms, and talk show. I don't see the comparison to Richard Bey. Franco had one hit movie, which he had a supporting role in, and spends the rest of his time jerking off to his own ego.

Members JackPeyton Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 This is actually a very good list. Helen Mirren, Backstreet Boys, Rick Baker, Ron Howard, Olympia Dukakis, Steve Harvey, Jane's Addiction, New Kids on the Block, Janis Joplin, Usher and Luther Vandross definantly deserve one. Jennifer Hudson, James Franco, Bryan Cranston, Katey Segal, Matthew Perry, Ellen DeGeneres, Penn & Teller are worthy of one, for some maybe a little early into their careers but they defiantly are worthy.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 I'm most excited for Olympia Dukakis and Jennifer Hudson. When are they going to give Raven Symone one? Say what you want about her, but she's had a successful career for over 20 years and has always kept it classy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 Not much reason then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted June 25, 2012 Members Share Posted June 25, 2012 I think he also got a Golden Globe nom for that movie Milk. I love James, but his star seems a little premature. He's just now becoming a big star, in terms of appeal, media, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
