In an emotional ceremony that nearly brought Sunset Boulevard to a standstill, Sir Tom Jones created a new historic milestone: he became the first artist ever to be honored with a full-body bronze statue on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, far surpassing the traditional star plaque that has existed for decades….The statue depicts Sir Tom in his legendary 1970s prime, complete with his signature unbuttoned shirt, tight trousers, and the powerful, wide-legged stance that defined a generation. It was unveiled right in front of the TCL Chinese Theatre. Standing over 9 feet tall including its pedestal, the statue commands attention, cast in solid bronze and resting on a base of Welsh slate imported directly from his hometown of Pontypridd.
