The Fort Bend Star is a weekly newspaper headquartered in Stafford, Texas in Greater Houston.

It was founded in 1978 by Beverly "Bev" Carter (1941 in Ballinger, Texas - July 6, 2013). Her newspaper included a column written by her, "Bev's Burner." Mike Glenn of the Houston Chronicle wrote that it "mixed homey personal anecdotes with sometimes biting political observations." She often criticized politicians including Governor of Texas Rick Perry and Congressman Tom Delay.

Carter died of cancer on Saturday July 6, 2013. As of that year, her son, Michael Fredrickson, publishes the newspaper.

The current editor of The Star is Michael Sudhalter. Contributing writers include Subhrata Barot (News/Features) and Adrian Martin (Sports)
