Anita O'Day, Anita Belle Colton O'Day, född 18 oktober 1919 i Chicago, Illinois, USA, död 23 november 2006 i West Hollywood, Los Angeles, Kalifornien, USA, var en amerikansk jazzsångerska som hade sin storhetstid på 1940- och 1950-talen.
O'Day slog igenom tillsammans med Gene Krupas Orkester med låten Let Me Off Uptown. Under 50-talet arbetade hon i större utsträckning som solist och hon medverkade bland annat i filmen Jazz on a Summer's Day som spelades in på Newportfestivalen 1958.
Hon kom att leda utvecklingen av den moderna jazzsången tillsammans med Ella Fitzgerald och Sarah Vaughan.
