Film star Sandra Bullock has been honoured with a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

The actress, currently starring in the sequel to Miss Congeniality, said she would "turn legit" after being given the award.

"I no longer feel compelled, because of this honour, to carve my name into every wet cement board on a sidewalk," the 40-year-old star said.

Her accolade was placed beside Keanu Reeves', Bullock's co-star in Speed.

The 1994 high-octane thriller thrust the actress into the spotlight.

Her other film credits include While You Were Sleeping, The Net and Miss Congeniality.

The follow-up to the film, subtitled Armed and Fabulous, continues the story of FBI agent Gracie Hart, who was originally sent on a mission to foil a bomb plot at a beauty pageant.

Bullock's Hollywood ceremony coincided with the US nationwide release of her new film.

Among the guests at the dedication was actor William Shatner, famed for his role as Captain Kirk in the Star Trek series.
