Ms. Vocalist is the ninth studio album by American singer-songwriter Debbie Gibson. Released on November 3, 2010 exclusively in Japan by Sony Music Japan, the album features Gibson's English-language covers of popular male-oriented Japanese songs. In addition, the album includes a duet with Mr. Big vocalist Eric Martin and two re-recordings of her number one hit "Lost in Your Eyes", with one version sung in Japanese.[3][4][5] A deluxe edition release features four extra re-recordings of songs from her 1987 debut album Out of the Blue, plus a DVD featuring interviews and the music video for "I Love You".[6]

Ms. Vocalist is the female counterpart of Eric Martin's Mr. Vocalist album series.[7]

The album peaked at No. 71 on Oricon's Weekly Albums chart.[8]

Ms. Vocalist was included in the 2017 box set We Could Be Together, making it the first time it was released in western markets.[9]
