Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli has been honoured with a star on the famous Walk of Fame in Hollywood.
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce which every years choice the names of those who deserve to be elevated into legend has picked Mr Bocelli over other famous artists; Mr Bocelli whose career has been on the rise since his international debut in the 1990s (he has over the years sold more than 40 million records and got several Oscar and Grammy Awards nominations) is not the first Italian to be honoured with such a star, before him other big names such as Sophia Loren, Rodolfo Valentino, Enrico Caruso, Arturo Toscanini, Anna Magnani and movie director Bernardo Bertolucci got a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.
By the way this year’s list includes Ringo Starr, Bryan Adams, Van Morrison, Russel Crowe, Emma Thompson, Colin Firth and James Cameron.
