He's arguably the sexiest man in British film - winning hearts since the moment he emerged from a lake, dripping wet in Pride and Prejudice.
And now Colin Firth has been recognised in the United States.
The Hampshire-born star was moved to tears as he was presented with a star on the Hollywood star of fame.
Colin's award is the 2,429th star, which is located in front of the Pig 'N Whistle pub, next to his friend Emma Thompson's.
Attending the ceremony was his The King's Speech co-star Guy Pearce and Colin's wife, Italian producer Livia Giuggioli (pictured).
