VIDEO : Illusionist Criss Angel Gets Hollywood Star

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Illusionist Criss Angel received a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame on Thursday, saying he drew inspiration from another famous magician, Harry Houdini. Houdini died in 1926 and this star will remain here for as long as this planet is here," Angel said during a ceremony in Los Angeles. In one memorable performance, Angel floated more than 150 meters (500 ft) above the Luxury casino's pyramid in Las Vegas.
