Remove sentence regarding Hollywood Walk of Fame?

On the 3rd paragraph of Joanne Woodward's page it states, "In 1960, she became the first person to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame."

However in the 'Awards' section it states, "A popular (but untrue) bit of Hollywood lore is that Woodward was the first celebrity to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In fact, the original 1,550 stars were created and installed as a unit in 1960; no one star was officially "first"."

This information is listed as well in the Hollywood Walk of Fame Wikipedia page in the 3rd paragraph underneath the "Selection and construction" subheading. PastelJellybeans (talk) 05:48, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
