Martie Duncan is an American chef, blogger and party planner. She was a finalist on the eighth season of the Food Network series Food Network Star.

Duncan has made several appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show. She has had no formal culinary training, nor has she ever worked in a restaurant. Duncan is the president of her own party-planning company, M Content Media LLC.

Martie writes about food, cocktails, and party ideas for MyRecipes.com as Martie Knows Parties. Her video series features tips on unwanted party guests, food planning tips, and unique theme ideas, such as Backyard Campouts and Lunch Hour Baby Showers.

In 2012, Duncan became a contestant on the eighth season of the Food Network series Food Network Star, being mentored by Alton Brown. She eventually became one of the final four contestants, and she filmed a pilot for a potential series called Martie with the Party. She eventually lost the competition to Justin Warner; however, on May 31, 2014 (2014-05-31), it was announced that she (as well as Chad Rosenthal from season nine) would be a contestant on the Food Network Star spin-off webseries Star Salvation, which gives eliminated contestants a chance to re-enter the Food Network Star competition. Duncan was eliminated from Star Salvation in the second episode of the season.
