nurktwin 2,143 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) LAS VEGAS – Sin City is paying homage to iconic singers Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin by giving them each a place on the Las Vegas Walk of Stars. Las Vegas Walk of Stars spokesman Pablo Castro Zavala said stars for the crooners would be unveiled Feb. 22 in a ceremony at the Flamingo Las Vegas casino-resort. The stars will then be placed in the sidewalk outside the Flamingo on the Las Vegas Strip. Sinatra and Martin are icons of Sin City entertainment because of their appearances on stage, in film and on television. The Rat Pack performers appeared in the 1960 movie "Ocean's Eleven," about a plan to rob five Las Vegas casinos in one night. Officials say Dean Martin's daughter Deana Martin will accept his star on behalf of her father. Edited February 9, 2010 by Refugee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Refugee 7 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 My mom's "rock stars", I love it! I love Dean Martin, so any honor to him makes me happy. If they are saying icons of Las Vegas, then they really should include Sammy Davis, Jr. and Joey Bishop. They were big there also in their heyday.
