Fox News
Late rapper Tupac Shakur's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was revealed on June 7. His younger sister, Sekyima, accepted the star on behalf of the family and his estate.
"From the first time he stepped foot on this stage of the Apollo Theater at 13 years old, before anyone recognized his name, he knew he had the dream to have a star here on the Walk of Fame," she said before the reveal.
The Walk of Fame said it was decided in 2013 that Shakur would receive a star, but the organization allowed his family and estate to select the date. They chose June 7 – nine days before his birthday on June 16.
