Studio El Fan (Template:Lang-ar, "The Art Studio") was one of the Arab world's first star-maker talent shows in Lebanon, created by the famous television director and producer Simon Asmar, and Alfred Barakat.[1] The program is behind most famous Lebanese stars[2][3] like Majida El Roumi, Ragheb Alama, Walid Toufic, Wael Kfoury and Assi El Hellani.[4] The program started in 1972[5] on Télé Liban where it boradcasted during the 1970s and early 1980s, the LBC television proposed to welcome him during the early 1980s[6] where it aired during the late 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s, and finally bought by the MTV in 2009. The show ran every four years for an entire year, and contestants from all over Lebanon competed in different singing categories for the gold, silver or bronze medals awards.

Artists were not allowed to perform elsewhere than on LBCI, so they were called upon to perform in Nahr el-Founoun, an artistic complex in Nahr el-Kalb that was owned by Simon Asmar.[1]
