In the 1970s and early 1980s the pageant was aired every year from the
Ellinikí Radiofonía Tileórasi. From 1990 to 2010, it was funded and aired on Greece's private network
ANT1. Because of the
Greek financial crisis, ΑΝΤ1 did not fund the 2011 pageant which had the form of a low-key private casting and was not aired. In 2012 the Star Hellas organizers staged a comeback by teaming with Internet site TLife which became responsible for the publicity of the event and for airing live over the Internet. ==International winners==
