The idea was conceived by TV5 Entertainment Chief Strategist Vic del Rosario. In 2010, del Rosario planned to launch BTBAS with Sarah Geronimo and Willie Revillame as hosts.

Ogie Alcasid, Sarah Geronimo and Yassi Pressman served as the show's main hosts, while OPM hitmakers Aiza Seguerra, Andrew E., Pops Fernandez and Rico Blanco served as the judges of the singing competition open for aspiring 13- to 18-year-old singers.[3]

The grand winner of the competition would take home a total of 3 million pesos of prizes including a 1 million-peso cash prize, a management contract from TV5 and Viva Artists Agency and a house and lot.

According to Monti Parungao, the show's director, the contestants would have to pass the two pre-audition processes before they would make it in the competition.[4] In the weekly rounds, four contestants will be introduced per week and in the beginning of the performance, the program tackled the stories (or makings of a star) of the contestants before joining the competition. The winner of the weekly round will undergo make-over sessions and vocal lessons.[1] All winners of the weekly rounds will be qualified for the monthly round, of which one contestant will then move on to the grand finals.[5][6]

The grand finals of Born to Be a Star held on May 29, 2016, with Shanne Dandan as its grand winner.[7]
