The beloved actor Macaulay Culkin, best known for his iconic role in “Home Alone,” was honored on Friday with a star on Hollywood Boulevard’s Walk of Fame. The event was attended by his family, colleagues, and friends, making it a heartwarming celebration of his illustrious career.
Now 43 years old, Culkin stole the hearts of audiences worldwide as young Kevin McCallister in the 1990s hit “Home Alone” and its sequel. He also left a lasting impression with roles in “Uncle Buck,” “Richie Rich,” and “My Girl.” Despite his early rise to fame, Culkin continued to pursue his passion for acting, taking on lower-profile roles and even venturing into other artistic endeavors such as stage acting and music.
In a touching display of love and support, Culkin’s fiancée, Brenda Song, and their two sons, including an infant born earlier this year and their two-year-old, joined him at the ceremony. His gratitude and affection for his family were evident as he publicly acknowledged their importance in his life during his acceptance speech.
The star-studded event featured appearances by Catherine O’Hara, who played his on-screen mother in “Home Alone,” and Natasha Lyonne, his co-star in the 2003 biographical crime drama, “Party Monster.” Other notable figures in attendance included Brenda Song, Culkin’s partner and accomplished actress, Seth Green, who directed Culkin in the 2019 comedy-drama film “Changeland,” and Kat Dennings, who co-starred in the CBS comedy “2 Broke Girls.”
Culkin’s versatility as an actor was further showcased in his recent role in the 10th season of “American Horror Story,” demonstrating his enduring talent and adaptability within the entertainment industry.
This momentous occasion not only celebrated Culkin’s remarkable career but also spotlighted the enduring impact he has had on the entertainment world. His star on the Walk of Fame is a testament to his decades of contributions to film and television, and his endearing portrayal of beloved characters. As his star shines brightly on Hollywood Boulevard, it serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of a beloved actor who has left an indelible mark on the hearts of audiences worldwide.
