Shirley Caesar Receives Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame (Watch Full Ceremony)
Eleven-time Grammy-winning gospel singer Shirley Caesar on Tuesday became the 2,583rd recipient of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The honor comes as the 77-year-old legend celebrates her 50th anniversary year as a solo artist. Her most recent album, “Fill This House,” was released on June 3.
Caesar “is known as a musical trailblazer who has influenced a wide range of artists across genres,” said Leron Gubler, president and CEO of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce which oversees the Walk of Fame. “Her career has made an indelible mark on American music and the sounds of gospel.”
Caesar’s star is located in front of The Fonda Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard, near fellow gospel singers BeBe and CeCe Winans.
