Nasty Gal is the third studio album by American funk musician Betty Davis. It was released in 1975 on Island Records and was Davis' first album on a major label.

It failed commercially upon release, and after the failure of this album Island Records shelved her planned follow-up, Is It Love or Desire?, until 2009. Under pressure by the record company, Davis abandoned her music career altogether shortly after this album's release. It was reissued on Light in the Attic Records in 2009 on CD, and again in 2018 on colored vinyl in conjunction with record club Vinyl Me, Please, which has rekindled interest in the album by music critics and fans, generating favorable retrospective reviews.
