"When it comes time to speak about my Father, to see you guys come out and show him love, and the respect that I have felt from so many people all over the country but especially here in my home in Los Angeles, and in New York City where my Father was from, it's hard to explain but it brings tears to my eyes every single time. And to see this and to see him be accepted and honoured in this way in front of his peers and to have some of the people he shared his life with here, to thank you for helping this to become possible and to help walk by and see his name and hopefully brings a smile to your face."

FREDDIE PRINZE HONOURED
Nearly 28 years after his death, comic-actor Freddie Prinze has been awarded a star on the legendary Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Prinze was one of Hollywood's fastest-rising stars in the mid-'70s, thanks to success on the stand-up comedy stage and a hit TV series, 'Chico and the Man.'
Prinze died in January 1977 from complications of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was just 22.
In attendance were Prinze's son, the actor Freddie Prinze Jr.,('Scooby Doo,' 'I Know What You Did last Summer') as well as Prinze's Sr.'s 'Chico' co-star Della Reese.
Also there was comic-actor George Lopez, who served as one of the star's sponsors. Lopez, star of 'The George Lopez Show,' said his own hit series wouldn't be on the air today if not for Hispanic sitcom pioneers Prinze and Desi Arnaz.

So great to see Freddie Prinze get his Star on Hollywood. It was long overdue.
So glad to see a clip of this on CZcams. Freddie's fans will never forget him...
Even after all these years, it’s still too bad that Freddie Sr. never got to see his only child grow up, be an actor in his own right, or even meet his own grandchildren. I’m sure that he would’ve always been by his sons side had he lived
OMG, I was 9yrs old when the world lost the legendary Freddie Prinze. I was devastated😢!. He definitely was a star and deserved this honor!❤
1:42 so emotional 😭 this reminds me of a funeral eulogy
One love to Freddie Prince & Family
I was 11 when I heard he died and i cried ❤
I was ten. I remember so vividly.
Great role model for our people
Freddie Prinze must be proud of the Hollywood star to honour him. He is looking down from heaven and smiling also saying LOOKING GOOOOD!!! to the star with his name on it. lts wonderful to remember him.🌟
Beautiful.
Why did it take this long for Prinze to get a star?
Sad end to a true comedic legend
Way to go Jr. you're a fine man.
💔😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
😢
🥺
Is Kathy (Junior’s mom) one of the ladies we see?
That's her kneeling left of Freddie Jr. when the star is unveiled and being hugged by George Lopez in the final shot.
I wish Jack Albertson could have been around to see this.
Who is speaking at 1:24??? Her voice sounds so familiar
Della Reese
@@criminalmindsgirl2936thank you!!
No problem
Freddie your a handsome dude and so was Freddie Sr and all but you dont even look the same race. I dont think he can be your bio dad anymore than Prince and Paris are Micheals or Ronan is Woody Allans. You better find a way to get a DNA cuz that man must have been a step. Also according to the movie he married her hours after he met her and you were born 5 months later if I am not mistaken. Is that correct? Come on Fred. Tell us what’s up?
Valerie Barr what the hell is wrong with you? That is his biological father. Genetics are a crazy thing. Not everyone comes out looking like the splitting image of their parents.
And if he wasn't his father, its does not matter. He loved his son anyway
This is one of the most ignorant bigoted things i have ever read
And it was 6th months later
Um, maybe he took his looks from his mother's side you idiot! Freddie Jr IS his biological son. The fact that he doesnt have his father's accent or upbringing probably also contributes to your illusion. This comment SUCKS!
Not a word about mental health…typical
I mean... This is highlighting the best of his career,, so no...
Of course not
The kid cannot be his biological son. Freddie was talented and so good looking. His 'son' is not.
Stfu
Worst. Eulogy. Ever.
@Christine Mills where?
Bunni Armani . .As a good looking man myself. I would say Freddie Prinze Jr. is a very handsome and talented man. Only an Idiot, who is blind to good looks would espouse such a stupid remark. You have got to stop hanging around with just cats, and get out more often.
What kind of thing is that to say that uncalled and not true his son is very handsome and very talented and has a beautiful family
