Willis gets star treatment on Walk of Fame

SURROUNDED by family, friends and fellow A-listers, Bruce Willis received a star on the Walk of Fame in Los Angeles as scores of US fans looked on.

Ex-wife Demi Moore and her new husband Ashton Kutcher were on hand, as were Ben Affleck, Kevin Costner, Sylvester Stallone, Don Johnson and Billy Bob Thornton. The Emmy-winning actor’s children also attended the dedication ceremony.

“I used to come down here and look at these stars and I could never quite figure out what you were supposed to do to get one,” Willis said. “Time has passed and now here I am doing this, and I’m still excited. I’m still excited to be an actor.”

Willis’s star, the 2,321st implanted on the Walk of Fame, was unveiled on Hollywood Boulevard in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre.

Willis, who won an Emmy for his role in the ’80s TV series Moonlighting, may be best known for his portrayal of Detective John McClane in the Die Hard movies.

Another sequel, Live Free or Die Hard, will be released on June 29.

His other film credits include The Sixth Sense, Pulp Fiction, Twelve Monkeys and The Jackal.

Willis’s latest film, Fast Food Nation, in which he plays an unscrupulous farmer, is scheduled for release on November 17.
