Chris Pratt is officially a member of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and he had no shortage of people to thank for helping him get there during his acceptance ceremony on Friday.

Faris also thanked Pratt for his sense of humor, saying, “At the premiere of Guardians 2, on the red carpet he whispered something unbelievably inappropriate into my ear and it was awesome. Honey, I want to thank you for being the most incredible person. I love you so much.”
