Star Awards 2000 is the eighth 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
