The Chamber of Commerce said the incident happened between midnight and 11:30 a.m. Monday at the star's location in the 1700 block of N Vine Street. Information on a suspect or suspects was not released.

Officials also confirmed the star of fellow Mexican-American singer Selena Quintanilla Perez, known as the "Queen of Tejano Music," was also vandalized.

A photo shared by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce shows Rivera's vandalized star, along with a video of fans stepping up and trying to clean it before professional crews arrived.

"This is unacceptable! Thanks to the fans who tried to clean the star up and reported. Note, there are cameras everywhere and a police report has been filed!" the Chamber of Commerce wrote on Instagram.

Officials thanked fans for trying to help, but advised people not to do this in the future due to the "harsh chemicals" that could potentially do more damage.

"I cannot with this. Smh. Thank you for my momma’s fans that took the time to help clean it up. Shame on the person/people who did this," Chiquis Rivera wrote.
