Jan Torsten Svensson, known professionally as Harpo (born 5 April 1950), is a Swedish pop singer. He was popular in Sweden and around Europe in the 1970s and is best known for his worldwide hits "Moviestar" (1975) and "Horoscope" (1976). Harpo continued to work in the music business into the 2000s, releasing an album of new material in 2005 and continued to tour. He remains popular in Germany and has toured there since 2007.

"Moviestar" (also released as "Movie Star") is a song written and recorded by Swedish singer-songwriter Harpo. Following two hit singles on Tio i Topp, Harpo wrote the song while sitting in his window, dedicating it to a friend of his that had aspirations of becoming an actor. "Moviestar" tells the story of an individual who believes they are an A-list actor in the league of Steve McQueen and James Dean, when instead it is revealed that they have only acted in a television advertisement. It makes multiple references to popular culture, including movie producer Ingmar Bergman.

Moviestar är den svenske popartisten Harpos tredje studioalbum, utgivet 1975 på skivbolaget EMI (skivnummer 1C 062-35 268). Det utgavs på CD 1992.

Albumet innehåller succélåten "Moviestar", vilken toppade listorna i flera länder. Även "Motorcycle Mama" tog sig in på den svenska singellistan. Bengt Palmers producerade albumet samt arrangerade låtarna.

Där inte annat anges är låtarna skrivna av Harpo. I Belgien gavs skivan ut under namnet I Wrote a Love Song.
