Guillermo Del Toro made his personal moment at the Hollywood Walk of Fame political as the Oscar winning-director accepted his star on the iconic sidewalk honouring his Mexican roots as an immigrant in the USA under Trump administration.

Posing with his native Mexican flag and the 2,669th star at the Hollywood Boulevard on Tuesday, Del Toro told the crowd "I'm a Mexican and I am an immigrant."
"There were people as weird as me and they were here. So that gave me hope. And I think this star is for you.. all of you that feel weird to come over and sit for a moment. I don't believe in magic, but if I can will a little bit of myself here in this ground, I will be spiritually here for you anytime you want to come."
