The Star Awards (Chinese: 红星大奖) is an annual ceremony where the media organisation, MediaCorp, recognises entertainers in their employ for their outstanding performances. Unlike similar entertainment ceremonies, the ceremony also celebrates how popular individual entertainers are based on how much fans were collectively willingly to spend through a voting system that elevate the popularity status of individual entertainers.

Famous quotes containing the word star:
“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
