Shes a cartoon you dope!

There is an uproar on the Hollywood walk of fame! Cue the mysterious strings. For years a group of supporters of Cheetah the chimpanze (im not lying), who has been a star of many films and commercials for over 40 years, have been trying to get Cheetah a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This year marked their 7th year in a row trying their hardest to get Cheetah his own star alongside the ranks of Marilyn Monroe and Walt Disney. However today it was released who would recieve a star .. and Cheetah was not on the list. Guess who was? Tinkerbell. Yes, a cartoon fairy....has...a star....on....the hollywood walk of fame.
First of all - I find it strange that people have submitted 7 years in a row for a chimp to get a star - but I guess it makes since, the chimp is 76 years old - thats old - hes probably worked hard his entire laugh. And I could see why it would be a smack in the chimp's face for a cartoon Disney fairy to get one first. What merits a drawing a star on the walk? And secondly -- does anyone care?
