Natasha St-Pier (born 10 February 1981) is a Canadian singer and songwriter of Acadian origin. She has spent most of her career in France, and represented France in the 2001 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Je n'ai que mon âme" (English translation: "I have only my soul").

She began her professional career at a young age in Canada, bringing out her first single at the age of 12, followed by her first album (Émergence) in 1996, at the age of 15. Her international career was launched with the English version of the musical Notre-Dame de Paris, which played in Canada and the U.K. In the musical she sang the role of Fleur-de-Lys.

St-Pier has had considerable commercial success in francophone countries, including France, Canada, Belgium and Switzerland. She has also become popular in a number of other countries, including Spain, Poland, Russia, Turkey and Japan. Her Eurovision song ("Je n'ai que mon âme") reached second position on the charts in France and Belgium when released as a single in 2001. In the following year, her single "Tu trouveras" ('You will find') reached position no. 3 in France and Belgium, and position no. 1 in Quebec. In 2006, her single "Un ange frappe à ma porte" ('An angel is knocking at my door') reached no. 1 in Belgium and no. 2 in France. Her albums De l'amour le mieux (2002) and Longueur d'ondes (2006) also reached places 3 and 1 respectively in French album sales.

In interviews, Natasha St-Pier has spoken about the importance of her Catholic faith. She recorded most of the tracks of the concept album Thérèse – Vivre d'amour (2013), based on the poetry of St Thérèse of Lisieux. She herself released two further albums based on St Thérèse´s poetry: Thérèse de Lisieux – Aimer c'est tout donner (2018) and Croire (2020). St-Pier also released the album Jeanne (2022), focused on St Joan of Arc.

St-Pier has appeared as a guest in a number of TV series. She was coach in the second and third season of The Voice Belgique (The Voice of Belgium). In 2024, she and her dancing partner were winners in the French TV series Danse avec les stars season 13.
