The Star Awards for Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes is an award presented annually at the Star Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1994.

Contents

In 2023, the Most Popular Rising Stars award was introduced for artistes who have been in the entertainment industry for five years or less, regardless of gender.

History

The category was introduced in 1994, at the first Star Awards ceremony ; Chen Liping, Chen Xiuhuan, Pan Lingling, Aileen Tan, and Zoe Tay received the award as five of the female artistes of the 10 Most Popular Artistes award. [1]

During 1994 and 1995, the Most Popular Actress award and Most Popular Actress were also awarded. It was a separate award from the 10 Most Popular Artistes award and was given out to the female artiste who topped the votes of the latter award. Tay won the award in both 1994 and 1995. [1] In 1996, the Most Popular Actress award was retired, making Tay the only recipient of this award. [2]

Since 1997, the number of recipients for each category were expanded to ten and the award was renamed as Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes. [2]

In 2004, the Star Awards for All-Time Favourite Artiste was introduced during the 11th ceremony where artistes who had received the Star Awards for Top 10 Most Popular Male / Female Artistes for 10 times will be automatically be awarded and will also not be nominated in this category anymore. [3]

In 2023, the Most Popular Rising Stars award was introduced for artistes who have been in the entertainment industry for five years or less, regardless of gender. Awarded artistes will be deemed as awarded Star Awards for Top 10 Most Popular Male / Female Artistes for the purpose of counting towards Star Awards for All-Time Favourite Artiste.

Eligibility

In 2018, the rules were changed to allow contracted and project-based artistes to be nominated and/or receive the award. [4]

Recipients

Since its inception, the award has been given to 55 female artistes. Chen Biyu, Chen Ning, Paige Chua, Gao Mei Gui, Hong Ling, Tasha Low, Chantalle Ng, Denise Camillia Tan, Carrie Wong and Ya Hui are the most recent winners in the Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes category. [5]
