Amy Grant Receives Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

|PIC1|American Christian music pioneer Amy Grant has left yet another mark in her celebrated career, this time on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Grant was joined by friends and fans and her husband Vince Gill last week as she was honoured with her spot on the famed boulevard.

"I see all my family, co-workers and friends and I have to say nothing happens alone," Grant, 45, told the crowd. "Life is like a massive vessel. You don't sail alone, and sometimes I feel like the naked lady on the front of the ship. ... It's been an exciting ride."

Grant, who recorded her first album in 1977, has been a mainstay on the contemporary Christian music scene, having released nearly 20 albums in her career span. Her latest CD is "Time Again ... Amy Grant Live."
