There was no prizes for guessing whose star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is being peed and pooped on.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles is a popular destination for those who wish to pay tribute to their favorite celebrities, both past and present.
Around 2,500 star-shaped tiles line the famous walk and most celebrities really feel they have really made it, once their star is in place. Whether it’s Hollywood actors and actresses, film directors, famous musicians and sports stars – or even the popular Muppets as can be seen pictured above – everyone feels pretty darn good when their star is officially in place for everyone to see.
Of interest to note, when Muhammad Ali – the great heavyweight boxer who tragically left this world last week – was given the privilege of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, he famously asked for his star to be mounted on the wall, rather than the pavement, so it wouldn’t be walked over by people who did not “respect him.” It turns out someone else should have thought ahead.
Donald Trump and the “Walk of Defacement”
It turns out there is yet another “celebrity” is probably now wishing he had done the same with his star, either very high up on the wall or on a high ceiling nearby, as people regularly deface this person’s star, publicly urinate on it or even get their dogs to have a well-timed poop on it.

You probably had the answer already, but that particular star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame belongs to none other than the Republican presidential hopeful himself, Donald Trump.
It seems resident and visitors to the famous spot have been making their own mark, so to speak, and posting images of The Donald’s infamous star on social media, either showing the defacement, or out and out urinating on the spot live on camera, as per this tweet:

The defacement continues unchecked
It is unknown whether Donald Trump is aware of the attention his star of fame is drawing, but reportedly so far it has had a swastika painted on it, various curse words which are not suitable for publication, a “mute” symbol, and plenty of good old spit, urine and dog feces.Donald Trump’s Hollywood Walk of #Fame star was just enhanced with a muted #sign painted by Norwegian #artist Pøbel. pic.twitter.com/kBqQeJic5l— AllPublicArt (@allpublicart) May 9, 2016
According to the Mirror Online this kind of thing is happening quite often, so it seems The Donald’s popularity is a tad lacking in West Hollywood, at least.

At least the whole thing is keeping the cleaners busy, trying to cope with the onslaught. There is reportedly a possibility that the star will be removed.
