Michelle Pfeiffer received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on August 6, 2007, with the usual fanfare and smiling pictures of the star kneeling by her star. It was star number 2,345! That?EUR??,,????'???s a lot of stars, so it is no wonder almost nobody noticed that 70 stars were missing for about three months?EUR??,,????'??+until the Los Angeles Times reported the fact. Frank Sinatra, Cary Grant, Clark Gable, Charlton Heston, Roy Rodgers, Jimmy Durante and Donna Reed were among the stars whisked away during the $500 million hotel-shopping-housing project under construction on Vine Street near Hollywood Boulevard. The famous terrazzo sidewalk squares with their brass stars are secure in a warehouse (sorry, eBay opportunists) and will remain there until the street project is completed sometime in 2009, when the missing stars will be showcased on a revamped walk. The Walk of Fame was installed in 1960. In 1962, the L.A. City Council appointed the Chamber as the institution to handle additions to the Walk of Fame. The Chamber accepts nominations and new recipients once a year. Johnny Grant, Hollywood?EUR??,,????'???s ?EUR??,,????'??honorary mayor, presides over the ceremonies. To get a star on the Walk of Fame costs $25,000, which includes the ceremony and maintenance of the square.
