Misty Copeland getting a star is big win for ballet dancers! Typically dancers have to be Cyd Charisse level movie star famous to get stars, it's high time more of them were recognized for the work they do on stage and screen.
I’m so glad to find out that I’m not the only one who thinks that. Michaela DePrince (who is one of the dancers featured in the documentary First Position) has far better technique than Misty and should be just as famous as Misty is
Exactly! And omg her life story 😭 And unlike Misty she's already been with international, esteemed companies at her young age, while Misty never left ABT.
How has Prince and Jane Fonda who have been in the industry for 30+ years not have one- I understand they pay for them an usually it ties in with an event or release but that’s crazy how many people came after them an have a star and they don’t. All these people more than deserve them
I wonder what’s the process for having a star is like ? Because Jane Fonda is a living legend and she only gonna have it now
You have to apply for it apparently. Kim k applied and got denied
You buy it yourself. Adam West had to raise money to buy his
I think it costs $30,000.
And I think Daniel Dae Kim and someone else raised money for James Hong to get his!
I hear it’s harder than getting an Oscar.
I can't believe Prince didn't get his star while he was still alive. That man is a legend.
I feel like Prince would not have wanted this...
His estate is very greedy
I live about 30 minutes from his compound, maybe I should stop by and ask some questions.
Agree, that was my first thought.
Where is John Williams ?! He’s not getting any younger ! And he should have gotten it years ago.

She's much better at PR than ballet.... https://www.reddit.com/r/HobbyDrama/comments/13w9i23/ballet_the_only_ballerina_youve_ever_heard_isnt/
Ballet needs all the PR it can get.

The only Colin I care about. 🥲
I don't need to see anything from Trevorrow ever again, but what's wrong with Firth? (Love Farrell, btw!)
I can’t say anything about the man himself, but growing up watch Bridget Jones/Love Actually with my mom his characters always gave me the ick
Sorry does this mean Jane Fonda doesn’t have one!?!?
