Gal Gadot receives star on Hollywood Walk of Fame; ceremony disrupted by demonstrators [View all]

HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES -- Actress Gal Gadot is celebrating the release of her latest film by seeing her star unveiled on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The ceremony in Hollywood Tuesday was disrupted by chants from outside the covered area in front of the El Capitan Theater from both pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel protesters.

Gadot is the first Israeli actress to be granted the Walk of Fame honor. In her speech at the event, Gadot referred several times to her Israeli roots.

"I'm just a girl from a town in Israel," Gadot said to cheers from the crowd. "I could never imagine such a moment. I never dreamt of becoming an actress, and I never knew that these things are possible."
