After releasing her highly anticipated album Something Beautiful (2025), Miley Cyrus is set to join the ranks of entertainment legends with her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, expected to be unveiled between 2026 and 2027. While the honor itself is a significant milestone recognizing her impact on music and popular culture, few realize that placing a star on Hollywood Boulevard comes with a hefty price tag.
According to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which oversees the Walk of Fame, the fee to sponsor a star ceremony currently stands at $85,000. This sum covers the creation, installation, and ongoing maintenance of the terrazzo and brass star embedded in the sidewalks along Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street. It also funds the public unveiling ceremony, an event where celebrities like Miley Cyrus pose alongside their star before fans and media.
Miley herself celebrated the announcement by sharing a sneak peek of the music video for her song ‘Walk of Fame’ on social media, marking the moment as a dream come true. Reflecting on her childhood visits to Hollywood Boulevard with her father Billy Ray Cyrus, she recalled the early days when she’d roam the boulevard virtually unnoticed.
«Honored to be receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. When I first came to LA from Nashville as a little girl, my family would stay at a hotel on Hollywood Blvd, and I would go on late night walks with my dad when no one would recognize him. We’d have the gift shops to ourselves & buy knock off Oscars and Marilyn Monroe merchandise. To now be cemented on this legendary boulevard, surrounded by the icons who inspired me, feels like a dream. This moment will live forever, thank you to everyone in my life who made it possible. I am grateful to share this star with you,» Cyrus wrote on her Instagram profile.
Though the star ceremony is a prestigious honor awarded by a committee once a year, it requires the nominee’s consent and financial commitment from the artist or their representatives. The Walk of Fame Committee receives hundreds of nominations annually but selects about 30 honorees each year, ensuring that recipients have had a significant impact in entertainment.
Interestingly, Miley’s star arrives long after her iconic role asHannah Montanaon Disney Channel, a character that shaped a generation yet did not immediately earn a Walk of Fame tribute. Now, with a flourishing music career and cultural influence, her star reflects her evolution and lasting legacy.

For fans, the star ceremony is more than just a plaque in the sidewalk — it’s a celebration of an artist’s journey and connection to Hollywood’s historic entertainment landscape. As Miley prepares for a busy schedule of events through late 2025 and 2026, including new music projects, her Walk of Fame star will undoubtedly shine as a symbol of the achievement and recognition she always deserved.
