DJ Khaled Gets Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame With Jay-Z & Diddy Looking On

DJ Khaled received a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame on Monday.

The ceremony, which was held on the 6200 block of Hollywood Boulevard, saw several of Khaled’s friends, collaborators, supporters and family in attendance. The record producer was also accompanied by hip-hop stars Jay-Z, Sean “Diddy” Combs and Fat Joe. Artists Teyana Taylor, Jeezy and N.O.R.E. were also present.

Fat Joe introduced Khaled at the beginning of the ceremony.

“When I met him, he made me move out of New York to Miami,” the rapper said. “When I think of Khaled, I think of love. That’s the only reason why you see the heavyweights here like you see them.”

“You’re a pioneer. You’re an icon and a brilliant businessman. But most importantly, you’re a great friend to all of us here – a great father, a great husband and one of the greatest people I’ve ever met. Your energy and your work ethic is unmatched, we celebrate you for everything,” Diddy also spoke about his relationship with the D.J.

Khaled also came to the podium to speak, giving an emotional acceptance speech.

“I’m not a regular type of person, I’m a different type. There’s only one Khaled… I want my star to represent the light, the love that shines on everyone. God put me on earth to be a light,” said the “All I Do Is Win” producer.
