The honorees for the 2014 Hollywood Walk of Fame have been set -- and two will be receiving their stars posthumously.

Rapper Tupac Shakur and comedian Phil Hartman will be honored on the Walk of Fame, which recognizes professionals in film, television, radio and recording industries, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce announced. (Shakur died in 1996 at 25; Hartman died in 1998 at 49.)
For motion pictures, Orlando Bloom, Ray Dolby, Sally Field, Jack H. Harris, Jessica Lange, Matthew McConaughey, Liam Neeson, Paul Mazursky and Tom Sherak will be recognized.

In television, Dabney Coleman, Kaley Cuoco, Claire Danes, Giancarlo Esposito, Deidre Hall, Cheryl Hines, Don Mischer, Tavis Smiley and Hartman will be the recipients.
Motown songwriters and producers Holland-Dozier-Holland, Jeff Lynne, Mexican band Mana, Ray Parker Jr., Katy Perry, Rick Springfield and Shakur will be awarded stars for recording.
In radio, Renan Almendarez Coello will be the lone honoree.
"We have a great mix of celebrities and industry executives who have made Hollywood what it is today -- one of the greatest entertainment destinations in the world," said David Green, chairman of the Walk of Fame selection committee. "The new selections will bring great joy and fond memories for those millions who visit Hollywood each year!"
Dates for the Walk of Fame ceremonies have not been scheduled. Honorees have up to five years to schedule their ceremonies from date of selection, otherwise they will expire.
