The properties of forbidden zone stars in the populous intermediate-age star clusters, or blue globulars, of the Magellanic Clouds are considered in light of their anomalous color-magnitude diagram positions. Study of a table of the properties of these stars in thirteen clusters shows that their absolute magnitudes correlate with cluster age, lying at a mean value of 2.7 magnitudes above the tip of the main sequence. It is tentatively concluded that the stars considered represent an unpredicted, advanced stage of evolution from the giant branch.
