LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - Cate Blanchett receives a star on the Hollywood's famed Walk of Fame. The ceremony attended by two directors from her stellar career, Steven Spielberg and David Fincher. 39-year-old Blanchett became the 2,376th star to be honoured along Hollywood Boulevard and was quite impressed by the location of her star outside one of the boulevard's iconic structures, The Egyptian Theatre. "Location, location, location!" Blanchett joked. There were a few funny moments including Spielberg breaking the microphone immediately after announcing he was NOT going to embarass Cate followed by the MC of the event asking Cate, "...are you ready to go down...?" to which she replied "well that sounds provocative, but yes!"
