This year, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez and Kate Winslet received their star on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame for their undeniable contribution to the entertainment industry. With the overwhelming popularity of reality shows, many have been asking whether reality stars are eligible for this prestigious honour. In a recent post on The Hollywood Walk of Fame’s Facebook page, the Vice President for Media Relations and Producer, Ana Martinez, wrote, “Someone asked if we give reality show characters stars? Hell to the No!” That means, sorry to the Kardashian  clan and others like Playmate Kendra, since the Walk of Fame’s criteria includes: “longevity in their field of entertainment, awards and other honors, and philanthropic work.” Entertaining? Yes. Longevity? Maybe not so much.
