Paragraphs
LOS ANGELES - British billionaire Richard Branson has been honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Branson founded Virgin Records in 1972, choosing the name because he lacked business experience.
The label went on to sign some of the biggest names in music, including the Spice Girls, the Sex Pistols and Roy Orbison, before being sold to fund his Virgin Atlantic Airways venture.
He also opened Virgin Megastores, selling music, games and DVDs, before most were closed due to the rise of digital music.
He was also knighted in 2000.
Branson, who wants to take tourists up to the stars as part of his group's space ventures, will have to settle for a star in Hollywood for now.
