(12 Mar 2015) JIM PARSONS JOINS THE WALK OF FAME
The cast of the "Big Bang Theory" took part in a big celebration for co-star Jim Parsons Wednesday (11 MARCH 2015.)
Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco, Simon Helberg, Kunal Nayyar, Melissa Rauch and Mayim Bialik sat front and center while Parsons received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
"It's very special to me that both my family-family and my 'Big Bang' family are with me today," said Parsons. "Because while I still feel taken by surprise and caught off guard and unprepared for anything that we are doing today, including the bread by the nuns, I do know a little bit more than I did before. And one of the things I know is that the main reason I'm in this career at all and here today specifically, in general I guess, is because my family and the support that they gave me and the way that I was encouraged as I pursued this insane dream of acting from Texas to here. Yeah right. Y'all."
Parsons has four Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe and a Critics' Choice Television Award for playing Sheldon Cooper on the hit CBS comedy.
Dreamworks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg and producer Chuck Lorre sang the praises of the 41-year-old actor as he was honored with the 2,545th star on Hollywood Boulevard.
Parsons signed autographs and told the crowd he was trying his best to savor the moment:
"Finally, the thing I want to say is when Kaley (Cuoco) got her star, again congratulations to you, I said to her that day and I'm trying to take that advice myself 'please enjoy this because honestly the next time this many people get together to discuss you in a good way you're probably not going to be there, if you catch my drift.' And so I will try to take my own advice and enjoy this today. Thank you all very, very much. Thank you," he said.
Up next Parsons will return to Broadway in the comedy "An Act of God."
