The singer has been awarded this mythical tribute

Last Friday, October 1, Alejandro Sanz became the ninth Spaniard with a star on the prestigious Hollywood Walk of Fame, an achievement he had never imagined.

I dreamed of music, of getting on stage, but I never dreamed of having a star of fame in Hollywood. That is why this moment is so beautiful and unforgettable”, celebrated the singer on his official Instagram account.

Now, his name is engraved for posterity along with other greats such as John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Roy Orbison, but how much has this much-deserved tribute to his years of successful career?

The Hollywood Historic Trust is the organization that is in charge of granting and maintaining the stars in the mythical boulevard of the most famous neighborhood in Los Angeles and the figures he works with have been made public on more than one occasion.

The cost of engraving the name on the promenade has been rising in recent years, until reaching $ 40,000 in 2017, but the truth is that it is not always the award-winning artist who assumes this amount. Sometimes, it is the record companies or the production companies that pay the money to promote its most respected artists.

Many fan organizations have also borne the cost of placing their idol’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In the case of Alejandro Sanz, it is still unknown if he, his record company or an association has paid the $ 40,000 so that his name ends with that of other 2,702 artists, celebrities and celebrities of all kinds.

“Receiving a star is the result of all the love accumulated by all of you throughout my career and my life. Thank you for always being there, for not failing. And thanks to life, which never ceases to amaze me. See you on stage. I love you,” concluded the singer on his Instagram account.
