Award-winning make-up artist Rick Baker is to be honoured with the 2,485th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at the end of the month (Nov12).

It'll be a double ceremony for the man behind hits like An American Werewolf in London, Ed Wood, The Nutty Professor, Men in Black and How the Grinch Stole Christmas - Baker will also be entered into The Guinness World Records Book twice - for the most Oscar wins and for the most Oscar nominations for Best Achievement in Makeup.

Baker has been nominated 12 times with seven wins.
