Tell It to a Star is a 1945 American musical film directed by Frank McDonald, written by John K. Butler, and starring Ruth Terry, Robert Livingston, Alan Mowbray, Franklin Pangborn, Isabel Randolph and Eddie Marr.

A note is delivered to the resort's bandleader, Gene Ritchie, requesting that Carol get a chance to sing.

Gene already has a singer, Mona St. Clair, so the note causes resentment and Carol is fired.

Meantime, a con artist who calls himself "Colonel" Morgan turns up and, with partner Billy, begins scamming the hotel's guests.

She's a great success, but when an irate Mona reveals that Morgan's a con man who has even promised to deliver a new benefactor for the band, the musicians walk out.
