This honor adds to Moore’s impressive list of accolades, which includes a Tony Award for her role in the Broadway musical “Purlie” and a Grammy Award for her gospel recording. Her inclusion on the Hollywood Walk of Fame cements her legacy as one of America’s most versatile and enduring performers.

Moore has been actively celebrating other artists on her social media as well. In a recent post, she congratulated Katt Williams with the message: “Congratulations Katt 👑.”

The Broadway legend has also been sharing throwback content, including a post featuring herself alongside Susan Lucci from the soap opera “All My Children,” showcasing her television work beyond her musical career.

Born Beatrice Melba Hill on October 29, 1945, in New York City, Moore was raised in Newark, New Jersey. Her career breakthrough came when she replaced Diane Keaton in the original Broadway production of “Hair.”

Moore’s impressive musical journey includes hit songs like “This Is It,” “Read My Lips,” and her cover of “Lean on Me,” which reached the top of the R&B charts. Her remarkable vocal range and versatility allowed her to cross between R&B, pop, jazz, and gospel genres throughout her career.

Beyond music, Moore established herself as an accomplished actress with roles on Broadway, in film, and on television. Her portrayal of Lutiebelle  in “Purlie” earned her a Tony Award for Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical in 1970.
