George Strait: King of Country Crowned with Hollywood Star and Kennedy Center Honor at 72

George Strait BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Country legend George Strait, the King of Country at 72, just notched two massive honors cementing his icon status. The Texas Insider reports hes set for a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the class of 2025 alongside Keith Urban and Busta Rhymes, a glittering nod to his record-breaking career with over 120 million records sold and more number-one hits than anyone in any genre. Even bigger, Texas Realty Engineers confirms Strait joined the elite 2025 Kennedy Center Honors roster, where President Donald Trump personally pinned his gold medal in the White House Oval Office on December 6. The next night in DC, his family including wife Norma of 54 years, son Bubba, and grandkids Harvey and Jilliann dressed to dazzle as Vince Gill belted Troubadour, Miranda Lambert crooned Run, and Brooks and Dunn revived Amarillo by Morning per Country Living. The CBS special airs December 23, with fans buzzing if the kids snag camera time after their CMA spotlight last year.

On tour, AOL via Parade spilled tea from a recent 2025 stadium gig with Chris Stapleton, where Strait sat for All My Exes Live in Texas, sparking worry until he quipped to the crowd his back gave out, no dancing tonight, but his voice still slays. No health scares, just pacing the GOAT. Express News lumped him in top headlines with Brianna Aguilera and USAA tea, while hes got Salt Lake City looming per his site. Tributes like King George in Dallas December 28 sell out fast, but thats fan love, not Strait himself. No fresh business whispers on Codigo Tequila or his jet firm, and that heart attack rumor from shadier spots like Omnix Hub stays unverified bunk. Straits quiet empire rolls on, back twinge and all, proving the Kings unbreakable. Word count: 378.
