Clad in a black ensemble, the beaming songstress who is affectionately known as the vocal bible amongst her industry peers was accompanied by her parents to the ceremony, together with fellow actress Issa Rae and music producer Babyface.
She took to Instagram to pen a lengthy letter to show gratitude and appreciation to those who lit up her spark very early on in her musical journey and made her the global star that she has become.
"I am beyond grateful," she said.
"A star on the Walk of Fame is a definition of legacy.
"I didn’t get here by myself.
"To every person who saw something in me before the world did. To every hand that reached for me when I was still reaching for myself. To every room that made space for me — and even the ones that didn’t. Thank you," said the Boy Is Mine hitmaker.

The I Know What You Did Last Summer actress went on to thank her family for instilling a firm foundation in her life and "to every mentor, collaborator, creative, and believer who poured into me along the way".
"To my family for the foundation. For the prayers, covering, and for loving me before this journey even existed," she said.
She has recently penned a debut memoir, Phases, which hits the shelves on the 31st of March 2026.
"We all grow through seasons of becoming. In PHASES, I open my heart and share what each one taught me. I hope it meets you right where you are," said the one-time Grammy winner.
