Dennis Hopper honored with star on Hollywood Walk of Fame
Los Angeles, March 27 (DPA) - Cancer-stricken actor Dennis Hopper was honored Friday with a star on Hollywood's walk of fame.

But he received permission from his doctor to attend the short ceremony recognizing his contribution to more than 150 movies. http://i.usatoday.net/communitymanag...-community.jpg Hopper began his career in the 1955 classic Rebel Without a Cause and is most famous for his role in the 1969 counter-culture movie, Easy Rider. 'Everything I learned in life I learned from you,' a frail-looking Hopper told the crowd. 'This means so much to me. Thank you very much everyone, and Hollywood.' |
Excellent, and also pretty sad.
|
Well Deserved.
|
Bloody Ribcut, I must say that your avatar is wonderful. Brigitte Helm as the Robot Maria in Metropolis is one of my all-time favorite performances.
|
Bravo, Dennis. It's great to see you get this recognition.
|
Good for him, the dude definitely deserves the recognition, although a star on the Walk of Fame has to be the most meaningless honor ever. Judge Judy has a star for fuck's sake.
|
Fuckin' hell he looks pretty bad...guys, get your ass checks...
Seems like we'll be losing another great this year. |
Long overdue. Christ he looks in a bad way :(
|
cool, he so deserves it :)
|
Good for him. the cancer thing really sucks though, looks like he's fading real fast.
|
He more than deserves it.
Wasn't he on a car commercial or something not too long ago? I don't remember him looking in that bad of shape. Edit ********* Wasn't a car commercial. Ameriprise maybe? He was in the salt flats. I can't seem to find the video. |

Dennis Hopper, who is fighting prostate cancer and dealing with a divorce, is now saddled with another burden: a $12,000-a-month payment to his estranged wife.
A judge ruled Monday that Hopper, 73, must pay Victoria Hopper $8,000 a month in spousal support and $4,000 in child support. Against the actor's wishes, the judge also ruled that Victoria can live on the Hopper compound in Venice, Calif., for the time being. All three grown Hopper children – Marin, Ruthanna and Henry Lee – showed up in court to support their father, though they didn't speak. Hopper has been married to Victoria, his fifth wife, since 1996. They have a daughter, Galen, who is 7. The actor, who appeared in such Hollywood landmarks as Rebel Without a Cause, Easy Rider and Apocalypse Now, has appeared frail in his few public appearances of late. On March 26, he received a star on Hollywood Boulevard. |
Child support fair enough...but "spousal support"? fuck that.
She must be pretty low hitting him for extra cash now... |
Long overdue for this legend,Dennis Hopper should have got this 10-15 years ago....dumbass fuckers...oh well finally congrats Mr.Hopper:):cool:

His wife is a stupid twat. How selfish could you be? That there is a well deserved star. It's been a long time coming. He is one of my all time favorites. Man, you guys are right...he looks bad. :(
