In 2021, Nippon TV reused the title for the music show Nogizaka Star Tanjō!, hosted by comedy duo Pekopa and starring members of girl group Nogizaka46, which ran for two seasons. Unlike the original, the show was not a competition and only open to Nogizaka46 members, especially those of the fourth generation. It was followed by Shin Nogizaka Star Tanjō! in 2022, hosted by comedy duo Ozwald and featuring the Nogizaka46 fifth generation members.[1]
