To be honest, L.A. is not my favorite city. I didn't see much of it but spend a lot of time on the busy highways, stuck in traffic, and I hated it!

That's why I only really spend a night here before I could pick up the rental car and then leave as fast as possible - and I don't regret it.

It was great to walk along Holywood Boulevard, the Walk of Fame, to see the stars in the sidewalk, see the hand and foot prints, see Kodak Theatre - but it was kind of unreal because you've seen it on TV a million times, so I felt like walking around in a movie set.

When looking at VT pages of L.A. I find it really interesting to see which pictures of a star's star people put on their page - it's a hard decision. While writing this intro I haven't decided on mine. Michael Jackson's star had the most fans and photographers. Some people have more than one star - does anybody know why?

I love movies so I thought I would love L.A. But I think I have realised I love movies because they are fiction and not the real life. L.A. was the real life all of a sudden and I think I want to keep the dream world of the movies...

The stars on Hollywood Blvd are specific to a particular entertainment medium. So you can get a star for being in radio, movies, TV, and music. I think those are the only ones. Hope that answers your question! Andy

Stimme mehr oder weniger mit Deiner Einschätzung zu LA überein -- frage mich, wie ich es geschafft habe, da ein ganzes Jahr auszuhalten!
