Usher dedicates Walk of Fame star to fans: "It's because of you"

Earlier this week, R&B sensation Usher was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and during his speech, he thanked his loved ones and his fans for helping him to achieve such great things. 

Usher said: “I don’t just celebrate this moment by myself. I celebrate it with those people who invested in me, those people who loved me through my hard times. Mom, thank you for everything and all the people that you’ve actually helped to bring here. They wouldn’t be here if you didn’t recognise and make sure you selected the right people to be around and to help me be the man I am today and in this position.”

Addressing his fans later in the speech, he added: "It’s because of you that this shining star is here. Now it’s your responsibility to come down here every chance you get to shine my star. That’s the smallest thing that I could ask of you right now especially given the fact that I’m going to be walked on.”
