Slash will receive the 2473rd star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on July 10th. It should be one of the more interesting inductions, since the guest speakers will be controversial Hollywood figures Robert Evans and Charlie Sheen. In another departure from typical Walk of Fame protocol, Slash and singer Myles Kennedy will perform a private acoustic set and do a Q&A session at the Hollywood Hard Rock Cafe following the ceremony.

Dave Grohl joined a panel of the producers and creative team behind this February's 54th annual Grammy Awards telecast in a discussion following a screening of A Death in the Family: The Show Must Go On last night at the Television Academy's North Hollywood headquarters. The 26-minute documentary -- created as part of a campaign to get the show considered for an Emmy Award -- takes us behind the scenes as producers made last minute changes to the show following the news of Whitney Houston's death the day before the show and a late decision by Paul McCartney to change the song he was playing and to bring in Grohl, Joe Walsh and Bruce Springsteen to perform with him.

Starting today, A Death in the Family: The Show Must Go On can be viewed at www.grammy.com/grammysbehindthescenes. It's also expected to become a fixture at L.A.'s Grammy Museum.
