Laura Pausini — Où écouter à la radio

Laura Pausini (Italian pronunciation: [ˈlaura pauˈziːni]; born 16 May 1974) is an Italian pop singer. She rose to fame in 1993, winning the newcomer artists' section of the 43rd Sanremo Music Festival with the song "La solitudine", which became an Italian standard and an international hit. Her self-titled debut album was released in Italy on 23 April 1993 and later became an international success, selling two million copies worldwide. Its follow-up, Laura, was released in 1994 and confirmed her international success, selling three million copies worldwide.

Pausini has released fifteen studio albums, two international greatest hits albums and one compilation album for the Anglophone market only. She mostly performs in Italian and Spanish, but has also recorded and sung songs in Portuguese, English, French, German, Latin, Chinese, Catalan, Neapolitan, Romanian, Romagnol and Sicilian.

In 2004, AllMusic's Jason Birchmeier considered Pausini's sales "an impressive feat for someone who'd never really broken into the lucrative English-language market". In 2014, FIMI certified Pausini's sales of more than 70 million records with a FIMI Icon Award, making her the fourth best-selling female artist in Latin music, and the best-selling non-Spanish speaking female Latin music artist.

In 2025, she ranked 9th on Billboard's "Best 50 Female Latin Pop Artists of All Time" list.
