She told EBONY, “I am so humbled and honored to receive a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I still cannot believe there is a star right now on Hollywood Boulevard that has my name on it forever and ever. God has divine and perfect timing because I received the Star the same week my multiplatinum debut album was released 20 years ago. Thanks to my family, friends, team, and of course, the fans for supporting me all these years.”

Ashanti’s Star is the 2,718th since the Walk of Fame was completed in 1961.

The “Foolish” singer shared a photo on Instagram to celebrate her Star with fans.

The caption read, “Wow… I’m just so grateful for this incredibly honorable and historic moment. Humbled. Thank you so very much. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

A few memorable moments from the event were captured and shared on social media.
