The authors investigate the interactions of superheavy monopoles with stars of mass 0.6 - 25 M_sun;. Over the main-sequence lifetime, stars accumulate significant numbers of monopoles less massive than ≅5×1017GeV. Captured monopoles cluster near the stellar center; there they generate heat by annihilating and, possibly, by catalyzing the decay of baryons. Their contribution to the total stellar luminosity, and their effects on the structure of stars, are calculated. It is also argued that all but the strongly magnetic stars will retain a substantial fraction of the monopoles they capture.
