Lin-Manuel Miranda and "Weird Al" Yankovic's careers will be cemented into Hollywood history.
The Hamilton creator and the singer-songwriter found out on Thursday that they would each be receiving a star on the coveted Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Coincidentally, the two were hanging out when the announcement was made and took to social media to celebrate the honor with a silly selfie.
"I was hanging out with THIS guy when we both found out. Coincidentally, he's getting one this year too!! @Lin_Manuel," the "White & Nerdy" singer tweeted.
