Hollywood Walk of Fame

===Star locations===
Locations of individual stars are not necessarily arbitrary. Stars of many particularly well-known celebrities are found in front of the TCL (formerly Grauman's) Chinese Theatre. Oscar-winners' stars are usually placed near the [[Dolby Theatre]],{{citation needed|date=January 2024}} site of the annual [[Academy Awards]] presentations. Locations are occasionally chosen for ironic or humorous reasons: [[Mike Myers]]'s star lies in front of an adult store called the International Love Boutique,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/news/2002/07/27/mike-myers-gets-a-star-on-hollywood-walk-of-fame/28406493007/|title=Mike Myers gets a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame|date=2002-07-27|publisher=Herald-Tribune|accessdate=2024-01-10}}</ref> an association with his [[Austin Powers (film series)|Austin Powers]] roles; [[Roger Moore]]'s star and [[Daniel Craig]]'s star are located at 7007 Hollywood Boulevard in recognition of their titular role in the [[James Bond 007]] film series;<ref>{{cite web|url=https://ew.com/movies/watch-daniel-craig-get-hollywood-walk-of-fame-star/|title=Watch live as Daniel Craig gets Hollywood Walk of Fame star next to former James Bond Roger Moore|date=2021-10-06|publisher=Entertainment Weekly|accessdate=2024-01-10}}</ref> [[Ed O'Neill]]'s star is located outside a shoe store in reference to his character's occupation on the TV show ''[[Married ... with Children]]'';<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ed-oneills-walk-of-fame-star-in-front-of-shoe-store/ <!--was http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-31749_162-20099294-10391698.html-->|title=Ed O'Neill's Walk of Fame star in front of shoe store – Celebrity Circuit|work=CBS News|access-date=August 28, 2012}}</ref> and The [[Dead End Kids]]' star is located at the corner of LaBrea and Hollywood Boulevard.<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WScZCgAAQBAJ|title=Behind Sach - The Huntz Hall Story|chapter=Introduction|publisher=BearManor Media|author=Jim Manago}}</ref>

Honorees may request a specific location for their star, although final decisions remain with the Chamber.<ref name="Q&A"/> [[Jay Leno]], for example, requested a spot near the corner of Hollywood Blvd. and Highland Ave. because he was twice picked up at that location by police for [[Vagrancy (people)|vagrancy]] (though never actually charged) shortly after his arrival in Hollywood.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/leno-returns-to-scene-of-crime-for-hollywood-honor.aspx?pageID=438&n=leno-returns-to-scene-of-crime-for-hollywood-honor-2000-04-29 |title=Leno returns to scene of crime for Hollywood honor|date= April 29, 2000|publisher=Hurriyet Daily News|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170103170003/http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/leno-returns-to-scene-of-crime-for-hollywood-honor.aspx?pageID=438&n=leno-returns-to-scene-of-crime-for-hollywood-honor-2000-04-29|archivedate=2017-01-03}}</ref> [[George Carlin]] chose to have his star placed in front of the KDAY radio station near the corner of Sunset Blvd. and Vine St., where he first gained national recognition.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kennedy-center.org/calendar/index.cfm?fuseaction=showIndividual&entity_id=19830&source_type=A|title=Biographical information for George Carlin|publisher=Kennedy Center|access-date=July 30, 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090220184243/http://kennedy-center.org/calendar/index.cfm?fuseaction=showIndividual&entity_id=19830&source_type=A|archive-date=February 20, 2009}}</ref> [[Lin-Manuel Miranda]] chose a site in front of the [[Pantages Theatre (Hollywood)|Pantages Theatre]] where his musicals, ''[[In The Heights]]'' and ''[[Hamilton (musical)|Hamilton]]'', played.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Hollywood-Walk-of-Fame-to-Honor-Lin-Manuel-Miranda-with-Star-501597091.html|title=Lin-Manuel Miranda Receives Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame|first=City News|last=Service|website=NBC Southern California|date=November 30, 2018}}</ref> [[Carol Burnett]] explained her choice in her 1986 memoir: While working as an usherette at the historic Warner Brothers Theatre (now the [[Hollywood Pacific Theatre]]) during the 1951 run of [[Alfred Hitchcock]]'s film ''[[Strangers on a Train (film)|Strangers on a Train]]'', she took it upon herself to advise a couple arriving during the final few minutes of a showing to wait for the next showing, to avoid seeing (and spoiling) the ending. The theater manager fired her on the spot for "insubordination" and humiliated her by stripping the epaulets from her uniform in the theater lobby. Twenty-six years later, at her request, Burnett's star was placed at the corner of Hollywood and Wilcox—in front of the theater.<ref name="Burnett">{{cite book|title=One More Time|url=https://archive.org/details/onemoretimememoiburn00burn|url-access=registration|last=Burnett|first=Carol|author-link=Carol Burnett|year=1986|publisher=Random House|location=New York|isbn=0-394-55254-7|edition=first|pages=[https://archive.org/details/onemoretimememoiburn00burn/page/194 194–95]}}</ref>
