Trivia
Awards categories
This year introduced four award categories: Social Media Award, Most Popular Regional Artiste Award, Asian Skin Solutions Most Radiant Skin Award and London Choco Roll Happiness Award.
The Favourite Host award was retired as it was purely based on the popularity of the host, which would already have been taken into account in the Top 10 awards.
This is the first Star Awards ceremony with several changes:
The show sponsors were credited on narration during the credits, as it was previously done on other award ceremonies such as the Academy Awards.
The Best Theme Song award now include online voting, making it the first time a professional-judged award category incorporate public votes as the determinant of the award. Both components carries a 50% weightage.
Award categories can only be presented if the quota of a minimal 10 candidates, is fulfilled. Best News Presenter, Best Current Affairs Presenter and Best Newcomer awards were suspended due to lack of eligible nominees as a result of the change.[2] However, despite Channel 8 News & Current Affairs already had ten news presenters by the end of 2014, only the Best Newcomer returned in the following year (except 2016 and 2017), while the Best News Presenter and Best Current Affairs Presenter had not presented since 2013. The Best News Story and Best Current Affairs Story awards took their place, being given out on Show 2 instead of Show 1.
Ceremony information
Justin Ang is the first Mediacorp artiste to be nominated for the Top 10 Most Popular Male Artistes Award without appearing in a Mandarin production.[19]
For the first time, there are three recipients each for the Best Variety Producer and Best Director awards. Gan Bee Khim, Mandy Tan and Lim Shiong Chiang won the Best Variety Producer award, while Wong Foong Hwee, Leong Lye Lin and Chong Liung Man won the Best Director award.
Priscelia Chan is the first female winner for the Rocket Award. The past winners for the award were all males.
The 2014 ceremony was nominated for four awards, and only won one, which was the "Best Variety Special" awarded to the second show; it was Star Awards' sixth win for this category, and the fifth consecutive time on doing so.
‡Dates and years listed for each ceremony were the eligibility period of television in Singapore. For the first 14 ceremonies, the ceremony was held at the end of the year (usually December). Since the 15th ceremony held in 2009, the ceremony was held on April and the period of eligibility became the full previous calendar year, hence no ceremony was held in 2008 due to a format change. No ceremony was held on 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic while nominations for the 2019 calendar year were rolled over to the next ceremony.
