MetroStar Award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Award (based on popular vote) presented for achievements in French-Canadian (Québécois) television; called in French the Prix MetroStar. Many notable Québécois performing artists have been honored with this award; e.g., Céline Dion (1988), Roy Dupuis (1991, 1992, 2003).
The sponsorship of this award and its name were changed in 2006, when Prix MetroStar (MetroStar Award) became Prix Artis (Artis Award).
From the current Artis Gala website: ". . . This gala enables the public to honor its favorite artists from Québécois television."
(". . . ce gala permet au public de rendre hommage à ses artistes favoris de la télévision québécoise.")
