“I’m just a girl from a town in Israel,” the 39-year-old said during the ceremony. She added, “This star will remind me that with hard work and passion and some faith, anything is possible.”
She later returned to the idea to cheers, saying, “To all the young women out there, the young people, especially young girls watching, if a girl from Rosh Ha’ayin can get a star at the Hollywood Boulevard, anything is possible.”
The ceremony to inaugurate the star was shielded from public view and briefly disrupted by a confrontation between pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrators, according to Variety.
After her ceremony, she posed on the star with her husband and their four daughters, who range in age from 13 to 1. Gadot survived a life-threatening complication during her most recent pregnancy last year.
