Well deserved Forest Whitaker received a star with his name cemented on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame yesterday. This honor comes after a prosperous year for Whitaker, in which he snagged both an Oscar and Golden Globe for his role as Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in ”The Last King of Scotland”.
Stars such as Angela Bassett, Kerry Washington, and Victoria Rowell came out to the ceremony to help celebrate with Forest, his wife Keisha Whitaker and their children…
beautiful family
am first i happy for him though he deserved it
Congrats! he deserves it.
Congrats on a well deserved honor
Oh yea why the 3 girls in pic #2 look lost (and those fuzzy braids are not working for me). Other than that everyone looks nice. Victoria has always been a woman of style. KUDOS forest!

Congrats to Forest!!
Congratulations to him. It’s about time he got his shine on.
Yeah FW!!!
But damn, are they givin’ out stars now, cause it seems like everybody’s gettin’ one. Oh, yeah, they have to be sponsored and the high up keep cost.
Congratulations to the man. I’m yet to watch The Last King Of Scotland.
Kerry lways looks sexy.
Is that lady with a yellow top the lady who was in Girls Behaving Badly?
Glad to see he is finally getting the respect he deserves
Damn, Angela’s feel look like she came up on the rough side of the mountain!
About time! Congrats!
Congrats to Forrest! He is such an exquisite actor. Well deserved.
Lots of Black Star Power, everyone looks beautiful.
I hate the fact that Victoria Rowell is leaving Y&R! Drew is my favorite character and she played it so very well. Big Loss.
I am so happy for him, he is a wonderful actor, definently long overdue, and deserved.
I know@15..I am gonna miss my Dru.
Go head Mad Dog! (Jason’s Lyric) Wonder how quick he would have received one without an Oscar….
WHO IS THE HAPPY LADY IN YELLOW? BAD CHOICE OF ATTIRE……SHE LOOK LIKE SHE JUST GOT DONE SERVING ON A BAHEMIAN AIRLINE……………
Congrats to Forest! Well deserved, my brother! And what a nice looking family he has…
That Yellow Blazer is HOTTT!
Bout time!
FOREST looks like Fire Marshall Bill in the top photo!
Forrest for president!
Whittaker is a legend in the game! A well-deserved star for a great star indeed.
go head forest i still remember when he played mad dog in jasons lyric i love that movie
Big up to Forest! Mucho congrats
GO FOREST!!
Congrats Forest! You sooooo deserve this.
We are some beautiful people. That is why all the pasty skin ones try to hate then try around and imitate our looks.
The lady in yellow is Shondrella Avery from One on One and Cuts.
Congrats! But again I must ask, how the hell did Queen Latifa get a star before Forest and Halle? WTF has she done besides a few lame ass movies to deserve one?
wtf! ryan seacrest got a star before forest whitaker? hollywood is so f–king racist!!!!!
#18 roflmao!
Wow.. it looks so warm there in California, still fuckin freezing here in the North East.
Congrats to him.I liked him in Jason’s Lyric.
Keisha and Kerry look divine!
Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!11 Proud.
congrats!
He deserves it. The Last King of Scotland blew my mind. and it’s a true story.
I would say congrats. but how is it an honor when u pay for the damn star yourself?!!?! Either way I’m happy for him
Yes I’m glad to see the people finally get what they should of got a long time ago. Vanessa, Halle, now Forest. Next Angela Basset should be getting hers soon because she damn we’ll deserve her star too.
Young abd Restless will never be the same without Victoria Rowell. She is irreplaceable and I know she’ll continue to do good in what she’s doing. I wonder if they give a star to soap stars too? Besides “Susan Lucci”
@28 Candace you are so right, thank you. It happens alot.
His wife Is nothing but clothing, she is skin and bones!!
you know he does deserve, he has gone unrecognized in countless great film roles, i am so excited for Forest this is a great year for him
Congrats to Forrest…..he has totally revived his career after that horrible a$$ film Ghost Dog…..ugh!
’The Last King of Scotland’ was a phenominal movie!
Anywho….his wife Keisha has gotten so skinny….she has always been thin but she looks fraile now. Whats that about?
Angela looks lovely, but her legs do appear to be a bit “battered” But I still love her, hope she gets her star soon!
Who is that woman w/the bee-hive and bumble bee yellow jacket.
Um…is it me or has Victoria been dressing in lesbo suits ever since she guest starred on Noah’s Arc as “June”? She still looks great though, but I’m just saying….. “how you doin’?”
finally! he should’ve had one b4 halle. he’s an amazing actor. angela should’ve already gotten one as well (btw she looks gorgeous as usual). i like his wife’s dress
CONGRATS FOREST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well good for him. He has had a great year , and hes a great actor anyway! Go Forest!
One daughter looks like Keisha ,while th eother resembles Forest! They do make a lovely family!~
Well, now we wait for Oprah to get hers. (That’s right! Oprah ain’t got one!)
Congrats to Mr. Whitaker. This honor is long overdue. The man is incredibly talented and his family is beautiful!

CONGRATS MR. WHITAKER
All I can say is About fucking time…LOL!! I took that damn long for Whitaker to get a star…How rude!! He should of been got a star just like Halle Berry just recently received her…Thats crazy!! I’m sorry I don’t mean to bring up race in this post, but I don’t like how they treat African Americans in Hollywood…I mean Blacks did come a long way when it comes to Hollywood, but we still have a long way to go when it comes to racism in Hollywood!!
This is long overdue!!! Congradulations Forest!!!
congrats! i love to see my blk people get recognition…! i love kerry and the fact that she’s a classy woman, but i must say, her clothing is dreadfully ugly…i’ve only liked a few peices from her collection…there’s a way to be sexy and classy, but she has that mary poppins appeal….LOL…
that’s awesome!
Many Congratulations to Mr. Whitaker!! His performance as Idi Amin in The Last King Of Scotland had me on the EDGE OF MY SEAT!!! His family is beautiful!! So nice to finally see Forest get the recognition he TRULY deserves!!!
Wow, First Halle now Forest ! hmmmmmmmm
GOOD JOB! BLACK STAR POWER!
I always thought Forest Whitaker was a wonderful actor way back before the Oscar. I am talkin Jason’s Lyric Days.. He was great in that movie! I use to wonder why he never got much recognition? any Whooo homeboy is getting plenty of recognition now… He seems like a sweet man as if he would run your bath water, cook your dinner, watch the kids while you go out, and also pay the rent!! His wife is lucky to have someone like Forest.. Just because a brother look good don’t mean he is going to treat you good.. Hello church can I get a witness…
His wife looks so young to have big half grown daughters like that, and I am sure daddy makes enough money to have those girls fresh to def like their momma.. Why did’nt momma take the girls with her to the hairdresser’s? that’s a damn shame you got little girls in the projects fresher than them. I guess when your a broke little girl you have to look like you have some damn money, and when you are a rich little girl (Forest’s daughters) who gives a hot damn!
everyone needs to read victoria rowell’s book: “the woman who raised me” … it’s amazing. she writes as well as she acts.
Well it’s about damn time!!
CONGRATS to FOREST!
(this was loooooong overdue).
