LOS ANGELES:

She may be playing a villain in two summer mo-vies, but Michelle Pfeiffer was all smiles and grace when she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on August 6.

The Academy Award nominated star of The Fabulous Baker Boys and Dangerous Liaisons thanked her mother and father for supporting her decision to become an actress.

“She taught me that I could do anything and that I should have a career before I get married,” she said. “My father taught me that you can make something of yourself if you work hard.”
