Star Awards 2000 is the seventh installment of the annual Star Awards presented by the Television Corporation of Singapore to honour its artistes who work on Channel 8. The ceremony were hosted by Timothy Chao and Yvette Tsui.
The award ceremony saw numerous changes in the award ceremony, with the Taiwan popularity votes being discontinued and were solely decided by the Malaysia viewers alone, new categories were introduced (such as the Best News/Current Affairs Presenter, now as two separate categories), and nominations for both Primetime and Daytime programs were merged. The ceremony also introduced a new crystal trophy made in Shanghai, designed with a shape of S and A on the angle of view (which represents the initials of Star Awards), and the trophy has been used ever since the ceremony. This was also the last ceremony to be presented under Television Corporation of Singapore before its rebranding to Mediacorp, which would be first used in the next ceremony in 2001.
