Why is Hollywood ignoring Cheetah? NEWS FLASH!!!!!!
It doesn’t deserve one!
I mean come on people! Think through your heads!!!!!
You have to look at how many iconic animal stars that never got the Star on the Walk of Fame.
Lets see here… how come Keiko the whale who played Willy in the “Free Willy” movies never got a star, eh? Keiko was a pretty well known whale for many years! What about friggin’ Beethoven the dog who is also an iconic animal from movies? How come Virgil the chimp from Matthew Broderick’s film “Project X” never got a star when Virgil was pretty popular too?
Oh yeah, and what about that horse who played Black in the “Black Stallion” sequels, how come that horse never got a star? How come Bart the Bear from the movie “The Bear” never got one? What about Milo and Otis? What about Babe the pig? What about Benji? What about Toto the dog in “Wizard of Oz”?
There are only two animals that do have a Walk of Fame…they are Lassie and Rin Tin Tin. They got one because they’ve been well known for years.
Cheetah the Chimp however is not that well known and not that much of a star. Cheetah is not in Lassie’s league, that’s why the monkey doesn’t deserve one. Sorry but that’s the truth you will have to accept and this is why Hollywood continues to blast down Cheetah everytime the chimp is requested for a star. Cheetah is not star power quality.
