Here is a little more info on "who" and "why" stars get stars! It was very interesting to learn how it happens. Although a "star" can get nominated by whomever (label, fan club, another person) pays the money, it may take several years to be approved by the Hollywood committee, whomever that might be. I was wondering how that worked. Pretty interesting.....
