Pharrell now has a star that commemorates his achievements on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

Producer, singer, rapper, songwriter, film-scorer -- these are just some of the many hats that Pharrell Williams wears (along with the atrocious actual hat he's been favoring lately). Today, the music star quite literally cemented his place in pop culture by being awarded one of the coveted stars on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

With Ellen Degeneres presenting the award, Skateboard P became the man with the 2,537th star on the famed avenue. In his speech, he thanked teachers that helped foster his creativity, as well as Ellen herself, who Pharrell said played "Happy" before any of the radio stations picked it up. Watch the ceremony below.
