2007 was the first ceremony to have a double ceremony, one that paid tribute to the 25th Anniversary of television, and a second ceremony being the normal ceremony. Between 2010 and 2015, the Professional and Technical awards (given out to backstage crew and scriptwriters) were telecast and presented in the first show, and the main awards on the second, airing the following week. While the first show was still held at Mediacorp TV Theatre, the second show was, for the third time in Star Awards history, being held on the new location of Resorts World Sentosa, after 1996 and 2006. Both of the ceremonies were broadcast live on 18 and 25 April 2010. The post-show was held after the second ceremony at 10pm on Channel U.
 
===Nominated hosts===
In 2016, although the show was a two-part program, the technical awards was, for the first time since [[Star Awards 2009|2009]], presented in an off-site non-televised presentation instead of being presented live in show 1. In their place, the main ceremony (which was presented in show 2) was also split into two shows, allowing to put more emphasis on mostly variety/info-ed award categories and drama award categories, for shows 1 and 2, respectively. The Post-show Party, airing after show 2, focuses on online voting award categories. For the first time in ''Star Awards'' history, the awards for the Top 10 Artistes were presented in separate shows instead of single show, with the female artistes awarded in show 1, and the male artistes on show 2.<ref>{{cite news|author=Joanna Goh|title=Star Awards 2016: The Dream Makers 2 leads with 25 nominations|url=http://tv.toggle.sg/en/channel8/shows/star-awards-2016/features/star-awards-2016-nominations-6162340|publisher=Toggle|date=1 February 2016|access-date=14 April 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160318194856/http://tv.toggle.sg/en/channel8/shows/star-awards-2016/features/star-awards-2016-nominations-6162340|archive-date=18 March 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=新生代抢《红星大奖》 陈罗密欧雅慧首争"帝后" |url=http://tv.toggle.sg/en/channel8/shows/star-awards-2016/features/default-6162336|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160430102341/http://tv.toggle.sg/en/channel8/shows/star-awards-2016/features/default-6162336|url-status=dead|archive-date=30 April 2016|publisher=Toggle|date=1 February 2016|access-date=14 April 2016|language=zh}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|author=May Seah|title=Dream Makers 2 leads Star Awards 2016 nominations list|url=http://www.todayonline.com/entertainment/television/dream-makers-2-leads-star-awards-2016-nominations-list|publisher=Today Online|date=1 February 2016|access-date=15 April 2016}}</ref>

With the merger of Mediacorp with SPH MediaWorks on 1 January 2005, nominees now include artistes and shows from Mediacorp Channel U, formerly MediaWork's Chinese language channel, and were broadcast for said channel since. Between 2010 and 2014, [[xinmsn]] provided its first online [[Live streaming]] for both the ceremony as well as backstage, and since 2013, Toggle (both the website and the smartphone/smart TV application). However, these streams were only viewable exclusive to Singapore. Starting from the 2019 ceremony, the awards are also livestreamed on YouTube, and is viewable to the world.
The [[Star Awards |Mediacorp Star Awards]], established in [[Star Awards|1994]], is one of Singapore’s most prestigious television awards, celebrating excellence in the local entertainment industry. Initially held in December, the ceremony was rescheduled to April in [[Star Awards 2009|2009]] to align with the full calendar-year eligibility period and to accommodate the overwhelming success of "The Little Nyonya" (2008).
 
The [[Star Awards 2007|2007 ceremony]] introduced the first-ever double ceremony, with one segment paying tribute to the 25th Anniversary of Singapore television, followed by the regular awards presentation. In [[Star Awards 2010|2010]], the awards format changed significantly, splitting the event into two separate televised ceremonies, with "Show 1" recognizing technical and production achievements, and "Show 2" featuring major performance categories and live entertainment. This format continued until 2015, with both events airing a week apart.
