Stars Forever (Le Grand Magistery 61665-60010-2) (1999) is an album for which the artist Momus wrote thirty songs, one about every person or group who commissioned a song at the price of $1,000. The funds raised went towards the costs incurred from a lawsuit against Momus by Wendy Carlos.[3] "Patrons" include artist Jeff Koons. Stars Forever also features the winners of a karaoke contest started on the album The Little Red Songbook (1998). It has been described as part of Momus's "analog-baroque" phase.[1]
