Star Tanjō! (スター誕生！, Sutā Tanjō!, lit. A Star Is Born!) is a Japanese talent show from Nippon Television that ran from 1971 to 1983. On October 24, 1982, the series was retitled Shin Star Tanjō! (新・スター誕生!, Shin Sutā Tanjō!) lit. A New Star Is Born! to reflect its switch from monaural to stereo broadcasting. On April 3, 1983, it was again retitled to Star Tanjō! ~ Zenkoku senbatsu uta no senshuken ~ (スター誕生!～全国選抜歌の選手権～, Sutā Tanjō! ~ Zenkoku senbatsu uta no senshuken ~, lit. A Star Is Born! Nationally Selected Song Championship).

The show was created by songwriter Yū Aku, who also served as one of the judges.
