I wonder why it's taken so long for her to get a star. :? But, yeah, congratulations. :) She's not one of my favorite characters, but she's certainly iconic.

Oh, and I'm glad Donald has a star, too.

I thought this was interesting enough to share here. :)
Wikipedia wrote:Fictional characters (and those who create them)

In 1978, in honor of his 50th anniversary, Mickey Mouse became the first animated character to receive a star. Other animated recipients are Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, Woody Woodpecker, Snow White, Tinker Bell, Winnie-the-Pooh, Shrek, Rugrats and The Simpsons. The star inscribed Charlie Tuna honors not the animated advertising mascot, but the long-time radio personality (real name: Art Ferguson).

Other fictional characters on the Walk include the Munchkins (as mentioned), two puppets (Kermit the Frog and Big Bird), one monster (Godzilla), and three non-animated canine characters (Strongheart, Lassie, and Rin Tin Tin). The Muppets will receive a collective star in 2011, making Kermit and Big Bird the first fictional characters to receive two stars.

Six stars recognize cartoonists and animators: Walt Disney, Friz Freleng, Chuck Jones, Walter Lantz, Charles Schulz, and Jay Ward.
Three puppeteers have stars: Fran Allison, Jim Henson, and Shari Lewis.
