DJ Khaled gets Hollywood star
DJ Khaled says he wants his Hollywood Walk of Fame star to "represent the light, the love that shines on everybody".
The 46-year-old producer - who was supported by Jay-Z, Puff Daddy and Fat Joe at the induction - received his star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame on Monday.
The All I Wanna Do is Win hitmaker - who has sons Aalam, two, and Asahd, five, with his wife Nicole Tuck - promised that it was "just the beginning" for his career and has no desire to slow down.
He said: "God put me on this earth to be a light. The room could be pitch dark, and when I walk in, it's bright. When it's dark, I'm the light. And when it is lit, I am a brighter light. I want everybody to take this starlight and know that it's forever, it's for all of us. It's for hip-hop. But I want to make it clear, we are just getting started, this is just the beginning."
Fat Joe - who has worked with Khaled on songs such as Holla At Me, Pride N Joy, I'm So Hood and All I Do Is Win - introduced him to the stage and shared how he associates "love" with Khaled.
The 51-year-old hip-hop star said: "When I met him, he made me move out of New York to Miami. When I think of Khaled, I think of love. That's the only reason why you see the heavyweights here like you see them."
Puff Daddy hailed the I'm the One hitmaker for working his way from the bottom to the top.
The 52-year-old mogul told the crowd: "I remember that day when you told me, 'They don't believe me, Puff.' I was like 'Khaled, what are you talking about? You're doing great ... 'But they don't believe me.' I remember from that day, you worked all the way up.
"You're a pioneer; you're an icon and a brilliant businessman. But most importantly, you're a great friend to all of us here ... Your energy and your work ethic is unmatched, we celebrate you for everything."
