The Star Awards for Young Talent is an award presented annually at the Star Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1994.
The category was introduced in 2002, at the 9th Star Awards ceremony; Shawn Lee received the award for his role in I Not Stupid and it is given in honour of a child actor or actress who has delivered an outstanding performance in a drama series. The nominees are determined by a team of judges employed by MediaCorp; winners are selected by a majority vote from the entire judging panel.
Since its inception, the award has been given to ten child actors or actresses. Damien Teo was the most recent winner in this category for his role in The Journey: Tumultuous Times. Since the ceremony held in 2011, Regene Lim remains as the only child actress to win in this category three times, surpassing Lyn Oh who has two wins.
