"Kim Kardashian may be a Hollywood star in Kanye West&amp;apos;s mind, but the Hollywood Walk of Fame disagrees. During his now infamous Oct. 9 interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the rapper argued that his reality star girlfriend and baby mama should receive a star on the legendary sidewalk. Ana Martinez, a spokeswoman for the Walk and the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, however, has now issued a response to explain why that won&amp;apos;t be happening.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;We don&amp;apos;t have reality stars on the Walk of Fame,&amp;quot; she tells Yahoo&amp;apos;s omg!. &amp;quot;We don&amp;apos;t have a category for it. We&amp;apos;re happy to consider reality stars once they get nominated for, or win, an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar.&amp;quot; Martinez added, &amp;quot;We&amp;apos;ll consider them when they&amp;apos;re legitimate actors or singers.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nDuring his interview with Jimmy Kimmel earlier this month, West, 36, called the Hollywood Walk of Fame &amp;quot;dated&amp;quot; for not allowing Kardashian, the 32-year-old mother of his 4-month-old daughter North, to be honored. &amp;quot;I want to shout out to the stars on the Walk of Fame because they said something about they&amp;apos;re not going to put my girl on the Walk of Fame because she&amp;apos;s a reality star,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;People are so so dated and not modern. There&amp;apos;s no way&amp;#xA0;Kim Kardashian shouldn&amp;apos;t have a star on the Walk of Fame.&amp;quot;&amp;#xA0;\r\n&amp;quot;I know he loves her, and it&amp;apos;s all very sweet,&amp;quot; Martinez told omg! of the remarks. &amp;quot;But she doesn&amp;apos;t qualify.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nIn order to receive a star on the Walk of Fame, celebrities have to be nominated first before they can be considered. &amp;quot;I hate to say it, but a lot of people just don&amp;apos;t like her,&amp;quot; Martinez said of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star. &amp;quot;No one has ever nominated her.&amp;quot;\r\nTell Us: Do you think Kardashian should qualify to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
