Gloria (English: Glory) is the eighth studio album by Mexican singer-songwriter Gloria Trevi. It was released on March 22, 2011 by Universal Music Latin, after a four-year gap since the release of her last studio album, Una Rosa Blu. Trevi worked as co-writer for the album tracks, while Armando Avila and Sebastián Jácome worked as the record producers. The themes of the songs are her personal feelings, female empowerment, survival and romantic love.

The album received mostly positive reviews and entered atop the charts in Mexico and the United States. The first single, "Me Río de Ti", also received praise and peaked at number-one in Mexico, while the song "No al Alguacil" features Mexican superstar Paulina Rubio. "Vestida de Azúcar" and "La Noche" were also released as singles. A deluxe edition was also released, including as a bonus track the song "Esa Hembra es Mala", the main theme for the Mexican telenovela Teresa.

In 2007, Trevi released her seventh studio album Una Rosa Blu, which became very successful, spending 121 weeks inside the Mexican Album Chart.Una Rosa Blu yielded five number-one singles in Mexico and earned recognition, such as a Lo Nuestro and Billboard awards. Since the album sold half a million units throughout Latin America, Trevi realized that her next release had to be better than the previous one, so she took the time to choose and write about many issues.Gloria was recorded in London, Los Angeles, New York City, Miami and Mexico under the guidance of Armando Avila and Sebastián Jácome. The singer declared that the album is dedicated to women, since "the girls are the ones who buy albums. If there comes a handsome guy and sings to us something that touches our heart is cool, but it is harder for a woman to understand another woman". The album title was chosen after Trevi's mother, who also is named Gloria: "It is a tribute to my mother and to my grandmother, my mother named me Gloria after them, but especially I did it for my mom, who was going through a very intense situation at the time I was working on the album."
