Kim Kardashian, Hollywood Walk of Fame: North West Mom Deserves Star, Kanye West Says [VIDEO]
Kim Kardashian deserves a star on the "Hollywood Walk of Fame," well at least her boyfriend Kanye West thinks so.
The 36-year-old Yeezus rapper and new dad to baby North West, who often compares himself to Steve Jobs and Jesus made a bold statement when he appeared as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Oct. 9.
Kanye, known to speak his mind told Kimmel that he believes that his Keeping Up With The Kardashians reality star girlfriend deserves to be memorialized on the Hollywood landmark, home to legendary and known actresses such as Katharine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn and Meryl Streep.
"By the way, I want to shout-out the Walk of Fame, they said something like they're not gonna put my girl on the Walk of Fame because she's a reality star," Kanye told Kimmel. "People are so so dated and not modern. There's no way Kim Kardashian shouldn't have a star on the Walk of Fame. It's ridiculous old concepts. I'm just gonna give y'all the truth."
He then gave a list of cartoon characters that currently have a "Hollywood Walk of Fame" star.
"Are you kidding me?," then you need to hold on minute. Because guess what, if Big Bird, Donald Duck, Lassie, Woody the Woodpecker and Homer Simpson can all get stars.., why can't Kim?"
Walk of Fame recipients are selected in five entertainment categories each year, including television. According to Ana Martinez, the Walk of Fame's Vice President of Public Relations, there are about 300 applicants every year to receive stars and an average of 24 are chosen.
