      Walk of fame stars are paid for by the celebrity themselves. It's litterly giving yourself a star/award. That's just how it works, fortunately or unfortunately. That said, it's still deserved. She definitely played a major role in shaping the early 2000's and made it awesome.

      Fun fact! By the grace of God, I got an opportunity to meet both her and her Mom back in the early 2000's! At the time my boyfriend (now my ex) didn't believe that I would get to meet her, so as proof, I called him and she actually got on the phone and said hi! LOL! He was happily shocked and surprised! LOL! She invited me to hangout later than night, but I didn't. I ended up going home. I was never one to do hotel parties, etc. She was really cool tho. Very down to earth and so was her Mom. She was just as sweet then as she is now!

Such a beautiful voice coming from a beautiful lady is amazing within itself! Most of the women in this music industry have gone under the knife way too many times.
