HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME LINKS TO CURTIS, BARRYMORE, HARGITAY ADDED TO MAGYAR AMERICAN SIDE-BAR

The Hollywood Walk of Fame is, if you haven't heard of it, a way of honoring famous actors and others in the city of Hollywood, with stars that are embedded in the side walk.  It is a tourist attraction but please understand that it is fan clubs that raise the money for the actual star in honor of their favorites.  I've been there and you can walk the streets for miles looking for stars.  When someone dies, if their fan club is still around, then there is usually a floral tribute placed upon it.  Some of the sidewalk and actual stars are in need of maintenance, others are bright and shiny.

Looking through MAGYAR- AMERICAN blog, I noticed a couple posts that needed to be taken down due to expired videos.  I decided to add the HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME links for

Tony and Jamie Lee Curtis, Drew Barrymore, and Mariska Hargitay to my side bar.  These links have very informative bios on them.

There are and were more Hungarian-American actors and very many Hungarian immigrants who were involved in the making of films from their early years in Hollywood, behind the camera as well as in front of it, and in all aspects of production.  In case you are wondering, many of these people were Hungarian Jews.

Besides the Gabor Sisters, there is Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson, her daughter, Jessica Szhor, Adrien Brody, and Tara Reid who have some Hungarian ancestry.  There are also many Hungarian-American stage actors.
