Angela Bassett was awarded the 2,358th Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today. Angela, who received a bachelor's and master's degree from Yale, was joined by her husband Courtney B. Vance, her cute twins, Forest Whitaker, Rick Fox, and Lawrence Fishburne.

At the ceremony, she recalled moving to Los Angeles from New York in 1988.

"I meant to stay six months but I stayed. Today my cup runneth over!" Bassett said. "I am crying now, I cried yesterday and the day before. ... This day is so, so special to me."

Friends and family gathered at Crustaceans in L.A. to celebrate!
