Julia Louis-Dreyfus Has Name MISSPELLED On Hollywood Walk Of Fame Star (PHOTOS)

Julia Louis-Dreyfus received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame Tuesday. She was the first 'Seinfeld' actor to receive the honor.

Unfortunately, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce misspelled her name on the star, leaving out the hyphen and the O in 'Louis.' CNN's David Daniel snapped this pic with his Blackberry Tuesday morning.

Daniel called the press rep for the Hollywood Walk of Fame, who flipped out then called him back a couple of hours later to say that Julia thought the mistake was hilarious and wanted them to leave it.

Instead they had already chiseled out 'Luis' (to be given to Julia as a souvenir) and replaced it with a temporary 'Louis-.' If you look closely you can see the section that was replaced is a little less shiny until they can make a permanent replacement, but Julia is all smiles nonetheless.

Misspelling has become a National practice even with dictionaries built into computers it's accepted, a teacher actually told me the ability to spell is genetic.

Is anyone aware that she comes from the Dreyfus Fund family. Lotsa moolah in that family.

And what has that factoid got to do with a misspelled Walk of Fame star?

Nothing. It was written to see if I could reel in any _morons. It took awhile, no one took the bait, but wouldn't you know, there's one in every crowd.

That's what happens when a HuffPost conservative gets put in charge of spelling.

I just read that the other day. So really it's not an honor at all but a publicity stunt.

At least she seem "down to earth" and is/was able to laugh about it. Imagine if something like that happened to an a-h*le like Russell Crowe!!!!!!!

It's not really an honor to have your name put on there you know. It is bought and paid for. And not anyone can get a star on there even if you do pony up the $25,000 it costs. You must have a professional achievement in the fields of movies, recording, radio, TV. or theatre, have worked in your field for 5 years, and made contributions to the community. (i.e. cash). Then you must agree to attend, unless the award is posthumous. So, just because you have your name on there doesn't mean it's deserved.

And writers are denied a chance at 'em, too.
