Muppets receive Hollywood "Walk of Fame" Star

[Teheheman]

I was there and lucky enough to talk with some of the performers afterwards, including Peter Linz and Muppet legend Dave Goelz. They were really great with the fans...even the furry ones. Dave and Peter both took pictures with me and my dog, haha. Probably one of the stranger photo ops they've been a part of. And my shirt's fuzzy because scrappy was shedding from all the excitement, I'm not part muppet or anything.

Good thing you said something cause the question would've been asked if you were a MAN or if you were a MUPPET lol

Wow Steve isn't gonna be there?!! That's surprising! Unless he's gonna be doing Kermit perhaps?

Just a quick note to acknowledge this at last (three weeks late, I know)...

What a marvelous Walk of Fame ceremony for The Muppets. So happy to see the Hensons brought into it, and to witness all the fun little touches in this ceremony (including Sweetums unveiling the actual star! HAIL SWEETUMS!!!).

Thanks to all who have shared video and photos of this event - special shout-out to Zootsuit for his cool pics of Peter Linz and Dave Goelz - they look so happy to be there (and seem like nice guys too!).

That Carnegie Hall event sounds like a blast...Looking forward to reading the reviews once it's in the books!

Couldn't have said it better myself!

i am very happy the muppets have got a walk of fame star but i dont want Walter to steal all of the lime-light

 

[Pinkflower7783]

I don't think he is...I think he's just there because he is a muppet.

 

[lilmissmuppet]

Ye i know but I think he is taking over fozzie bears place

 

[Hayley B]

How wonderful! Where is the star located? I kept guessing around El Capitan. But I don't reconize that building they are around.

I tell you seems like either CA or NYC is the place to be right now if you wanna meet the muppets. :/
