Green Day got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on May 1, 2025. The event happened at 6212 Hollywood Boulevard. Many fans came, and famous people like Serena Williams and Ryan Reynolds joined.

The band thanked their fans and shared happy memories. They worked with 7-Eleven and made a Slurpee drink to celebrate their old album Kerplunk. They talked about new songs and more concerts. The band said they love their fans and are excited for the future.

Green Day started in 1986 and became very popular. In 1994, their album Dookie made them famous around the world. They also made the album American Idiot in 2004, which later became a show on Broadway. In 2024, their album Saviors was a big success, and they had a big world tour.

Difficult words: excited (feeling very happy, especially about something good that is going to happen), success (a good result or achievement).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
