Roberta Flack’s body of work was so legendary she was selected for a star on the Walk of Fame back in ’99 — but good luck finding it on the iconic street!
Ana Martinez from the Hollywood Walk of Fame tells us Roberta never locked in a date for the ceremony — but now, she’s hoping Roberta’s family will reach out to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to finally set up a posthumous honor.
Ana tells us the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce hopes Roberta’s family will reach out — but if they do, it’ll have to wait until after 2025 since all the dates for this year are fully booked.
We’re told the same thing happened with Whitney Houston — she got the green light for her star, but never locked in a date for the big unveiling.
Roberta was 88 at the time of her death … capping off an incredible career that took off in the ’70s with hits like “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” and “Killing Me Softly.”
