Queen High is the title of an early musical-comedy produced by Paramount Pictures on 1930.

Based upon a stage musical by Buddy DeSylva, Lewis Gensler, and Laurence Schwab, the storyline loosely concerns a rivalry between two businessmen that results in a game of poker. Whoever loses the game becomes the winner's servant for a year.

The film stars Charlie Ruggles and Frank Morgan, with Ginger Rogers (several years before partnering with Fred Astaire) making an early film appearance.

Making her very first film appearance in an uncredited bit part is dancer Eleanor Powell, whose career in musicals wouldn't take off for another five years. Powell was appearing on Broadway in a show entitled Follow Thru at the time, and a segment of the show was filmed for the movie.
