On Friday, the 33-year-old singer unveiled the 2,845th plaque on the famous sidewalk.

The organizers said Cyrus has had a lasting impact on the entertainment industry and has inspired generations of young girls with "her journey and fearless creativity."

Actor Anya Taylor-Joy and fashion designer Donatella Versace were among the guest speakers at the ceremony.

Last July, the award organizers announced the names of 35 star recipients for 2026 – without revealing the dates for the awards.

Cyrus expressed her gratitude at the time, writing on Instagram, "When I first came to LA from Nashville as a little girl, my family would stay at a hotel on Hollywood Blvd, and I would go on late night walks with my dad when no one would recognize him.

"To now be cemented on this legendary boulevard, surrounded by the icons who inspired me, feels like a dream," she added.
