This was actually planned long ago, before her death from respiratory failure over the weekend.

Pleshette was set to get her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on January 31, which is also her birthday. No word yet on whether or not the ceremony will still go ahead on that day, but I'm sure that Pleshette will get her star on the sidewalk at some point.

The honorary mayor of Hollywood has died.

Johnny Grant was the unofficial mayor of Hollywood, CA. Unofficial because the city doesn't really have a mayor, but Grant was sort of an ambassador for the city since 1980, hosting red carpet ceremonies, Oscar ceremonies, and inducting over 500 celebrities into the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He also helped entertain troops overseas during the Korean War, Vietnam War, and in the Middle East. Early in his career he did various radio shows and was also an actor, with small roles in such movies as White Christmas, The Babe Ruth Story, and The Oscar.

Grant died of natural causes in his apartment at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. He was 84.
