Minnie gets star at the Hollywood walk of fame

They saw dots — lots of them — today in Southern California. Minnie Mouse finally got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The character, which was created by Walt Disney and first appeared in the film “Steamboat Willie” in 1928, follows in the footsteps of Mickey Mouse, which was given the honor in 1978, his 50th birthday.
Mickey was the first fictional character to be added to the Walk of Fame. Since then, 15 others have been enshrined, including Disney cohorts Donald Duck, Kermit the Frog, Snow White, Tinker Bell, Winnie the Pooh and, as a group, the Muppets.
Minnie’s is the 2,627th star built into the sidewalks along the Walk of Fame, which is administered by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and maintained by Hollywood Historic Trust.
