Rod Stewart inducted into Walk Of Fame

Rod Stewart is the latest addition to the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

The singer, who has enjoyed a 40-year career, was inducted into the avenue of stars at a ceremony yesterday (October 11).

“It’s wonderful to be on this same sidewalk as Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald,” the star told BBC News.

He continued: “It has been a great year for me, my first Grammy, now this and I’m going to be a dad again. I don’t know how I did that but I did.”

Stewart is expecting his seventh child in December. He won the Grammy in February for ‘Stardust’, the third instalment in his ‘Great American Songbook’ series.
