Bradley Cooper, Kevin Hart Honored With Stars on Hollywood Walk of Fame


It’s pretty neat to see Bradley Cooper and Kevin Hart, two Philly boys, having their Hollywood heyday at the same time. Over the past few years, their names have been linked to phrases like “top box-office draw,” “No. 1 movie,” and “mega millions.” So it’s no wonder Tinseltown has chosen to immortalize them in concrete and star-shaped plaque form on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 

Their names were announced along with other inductees at a press conference on Monday. Cooper is honored in the motion pictures category along with Quentin Tarantino, Michael Keaton and Steve Carell. Hart is joined by Angélica María and Harvey Fierstein in the “live theater/live performance” category, presumably more for his standup than his films. Tracy Morgan, who is still recovering from a crash last year on the New Jersey Turnpike, is being honored for his work on television.
