  • Pharrell Recieves His Own Hollywood Walk Of Fame Star

    Just when you thought Pharrell couldn't win any more accolades, the former N.E.R.D. frontman has managed to add another to his exhaustive list of prizes, awards and trophies in his possession. Pharrell will leave a long and treasured legacy in the world of music long after he is gone, but up until now there had been no physical monuments to his name. With 7 Grammys already stashed in his trophy case, it seems unlikely he has an award that could come close to that, but he achieved that yesterday.

    It's hard to believe, but season seven of The Voice is starting to wind down. Last week, the top 10 gave some of the worst performances of the season. So, if these kids want to seem worthy of the top five or, god forbid, even winning this show, they needed to show up. Luckily for them, they did.
