Has someone ever seen the star for Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel on the Hollywood walk of fame? Is there maybe a picture somewhere... when did they receive this star?

Don´t you think it would be time for a solo star for Paul also...?

I never knew that they have a Walk Of Fame star.

ok, the official site doesn´t list simon or garfunkel...

that´s a pity - but I think they don´t want to have a star.

A nomination cost´s 15.000 US$

Well, he deserves it too. But not as much as Paul ;)

And then I´ve read in several newsgroups that nowadays these stars are only a publicity thing anymore - everyone who has to announce a new big project ´buys´ his star to be in the media for some days.

-examples:

these 2 twin-sisters got also a star now, and they have a new movie to promote

Billy Joel got his star - and he has to promote his own musical

Queen got a star last year - because they have to promote their musical in Vegas


The really bad thing about these stars is that you can buy them... for 15.000 $ (yes you have to be famous too...), so as long as Paul will not buy one for himself, he will not get this thing ;-) And I guess he isn´t very interested in spending this amount for a star ;-)...hey, this guy has 4 children (and maybe has to buy a lot of marijuana in the future for then ;-) )

LOL ! Maybe we should collect some money here and buy it for him (the Star, not the dop of course ! ;-)) !

I live in Southern California and have been to the Hollywood walk of fame many (TOO MANY) times. I have never seen their star there.

As much as I hate going to Hollywood I think I´d have to make just one more trip there if they did, indeed, have a star.
