Xīngguāng dàdào (星光大道 "Star Boulevard", "Avenue of Stars") is a Chinese state broadcaster China Central Television (CCTV) talent show from 2004 onwards. Named after the Chinese name for the Hollywood Walk of Fame, it was CCTV's more “healthy” rival to Hunan Satellite Television's blockbuster Super Girl (contest) (超级女声) talent show.[1] The host is Bi Fujian. Contestants included singers with more social values, such as blind singer Yang Guang in 2007.
