The Hollywood Walk of Fame is about to get a bit bigger as a whole host of famous folk are getting their names engraved on the world's most famous sidewalk.

The class of 2018 include music mogul and our favourite talent show judge Simon Cowell, Guardians of the Galaxy star Zoe Saldana and Katniss Everdeen herself, Jennifer Lawrence.

Broadway veteran and Mary Poppins Returns star Lin-Manuel Miranda and 'Weird Al' Yankovic will also be honoured, and were both hanging out together when they got the news – so naturally celebrated with a selfie.
