Mike Myers Gets Star in Hollywood
Comedian Mike Myers of the “Austin Powers” films now has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Wearing a black suit and shirt, the Canadian-born actor displayed his trademark self-deprecating humor Wednesday as he accepted the award in front of an adult gift shop.
“It’s a long way from playing street hockey in Toronto to having a star in front of the International Love Boutique,” he quipped.
Myers, 39, was accompanied by his wife, Robin Ruzan, his mother and two brothers. Celebrity guests included “Austin Powers” cast members Robert Wagner, Mindy Sterling and Seth Green.
The ceremony took place two days before the nationwide release of “Austin Powers in Goldmember,” the third installment of the spy spoof.
A crowd of 350 screaming fans interrupted Myers’ speech several times by yelling “Yeah, baby!” The line is often used by his Austin Powers character.
