CSI’s William Petersen celebrated his departure from the show by getting his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. After nine years, Petersen walked away from the CBS hit series and an estimated salary of $600,000 an episode. Best of all, he got rid of that facial hair! He wants to try something new. Petersen’s star is located right in front of the oldest restaurant in Hollywood, Musso and Frank.

EX LEAD SINGER VICTOR WILLIS WATCHED FROM CROWD AS THE VILLAGE PEOPLE GOT THEIR STAR ON HOLLYWOOD BLVD
Filed Under: Drugs > Hollywood > Phylicia Rashad > The Village People > Victor Willis > Walk of Fame
The Hollywood Walk of Fame attracted a boisterous and eclectic crowd Friday – with many in costume like their favorite characters from The Village People who received a star. The 70’s disco stars still tour- in fact they opened for Cher last time she was in LA. The Indian Felipe Rose (above) was an original group member – “cowboy” Randy Jones and “cop” Victor Willis left the group years ago. The event had a fascinating twist because former lead singer Victor Willis showed up in a fake cop uniform and watched the ceremony from the sidewalk. Later he signed autographs at a Hollywood Blvd store. Victor made more money than anyone in the group because he gets royalties for writing the lyrics to their biggest hits YMCA, Macho Man, and In The Navy. For years he’s battled a raging drug problem (it destroyed his marriage to Phylicia Rashad of The Cosby Show.) Years ago at a low point he was seen selling Phylicia’s castoff clothes on the street in San Francisco. He says he’s clean now. You can see The Village People perform at the LA County Fair.

HOLLY HUNTER: ANOTHER "SEX AND THE CITY" CASUALTY
Filed Under: Holly Hunter > Sarah Jessica Parker > Walk of Fame
World of Wonder offices are right on Hollywood Boulevard so they’re first to check out the action there. Today Holly Hunter got her star on the Walk of Fame and a crowd was assembled watching her give a sincere thank-you speech. Halfway through it, there was a big disturbance as a group of women in high heels came running out of the lobby of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. They were flailing their handbags and screaming “It’s Sarah Jessica Parker! Carrie! Carrie! Carrie!” Obviously they were infected with “Sex and the City” mania because they mistook startled Holly for Sarah. (There IS a resemblance, isn’t there?) When informed of their mistake, they backed off and continued down the street. The crowd laughed and Holly resumed her speech.
