Ex-Beatle George Harrison to get Hollywood star

Apr 3, 2009, 22:08 GMT

Los Angeles - George Harrison, the former Beatle who died of cancer in 2001, is to get a star on Hollywood's walk of fame later this month, it was announced Friday. The former lead guitarist for the legendary band will get his posthumous star on April 14, with wife Olivia and son Dhani accepting the honour in his name. The event is timed to coincide with the launch by Capitol Records of a previously unreleased Harrison music project and a forthcoming documentary on the guitarist by Martin Scorsese. Harrison already shares a star with the other Beatles, but only John Lennon, who was assassinated in 1980, currently has his own marker on the world-famous Hollywood landmark.
