Kathie Lee Gifford obtained a long-overdue star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Wednesday.
The 67-year-old former co-host of Today Show with Kathie Lee & Hoda, who held the gig for 11 years before stepping away in April 2019, was originally slated to receive her star on the famed Hollywood Boulevard in 2020 but the event was pushed into 2021.
Dolly Parton, 75, Hoda Kotb, 56, and Craig Ferguson, 58, each recorded congratulatory messages for Gifford, which were played during the virtual ceremony, and Gifford’s life and career highlights were also showcased during the live stream.
Parton wrote the forward for Gifford’s book, It’s Never Too Late, and of course the actress and Broadway performer’s longtime sisterhood with Kotb is well-documented.
