Using the Gross-Pitaevskii equation and the Thomas-Fermi approximation, we study a cold star composed of a dilute Bose-Einstein condensate. The exact solution of the mass distribution of a nonrotating star is obtained. For a slowly rotating star, the second-order perturbative solutions are obtained. It is found that one solution is stable and the other is metastable.
