A star for former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr has been added to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
At a whimsical ceremony outside the Capitol Records building, Starr's name was unveiled as the 2401st star on the sidewalk attraction.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame also marked its 50th anniversary of groundbreaking on the same day.
Those by Starr's side for the unveiling included actress-wife Barbara Bach, musicians Jay Walsh and Ben Harper, producer Don Was, director David Lynch and actor Noah Wyle.
The Walk of Fame also includes individual stars for the drummer's former Beatles bandmates John Lennon and George Harrison.
The Beatles as a group received a star in 1998.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame attracts an estimated 10 million visitors annually to the 18-block stretch lining Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street.
