Assuming that you mean, the stars that look brightest to us: Those are:* The Sun (which changes constellations about once every month).

* Sirius, constellation Canis Maioris.

* Canopus, constellation Carina.

So, if you exclude the Sun, the answer would be Canis Maioris, and Carina.

Please note that some planets are brighter than Sirius - and those planets look like stars. They are NOT stars, according to the modern definition; and they, too, change from one constellation to another several times a year.
