Canopy of an imposing degree, gatecrashed the hall of fame

Finally. After some nervous moments of indecision, spent beneath the canopy of an imposing pedigree, the starlet has finally gatecrashed the hall of fame. Both as an actor and as a singer.

As to dictionary, gatecrashed means "to enter into a place where you were not invited" but I can't understand what it means here.

Similarly, I cannot find a suitable meaning for canopy and pedigree in this occation.

It means that the writer doesn't think she deserves to be in the hall of fame. A canopy is a flexible "roof" made of flowing material, often used outdoors to protect participants from the sun or the rain. A pedigree is a good family lineage.
