Gennifer Flowers (born January 24, 1950) is one of three women who have claimed to have had affairs with U.S. President Bill Clinton.

She came forward during Clinton's 1992 Presidential election campaign claiming that she had had a twelve-year affair with him, beginning in 1977. She also claimed that in 1977 he gave her $200 for an abortion. When Clinton denied having an affair with Flowers, she held a press conference in which she played tape recordings she claimed were of secretly recorded intimate phone calls with Clinton. In his autobiography My Life, Clinton acknowledged testifying under oath that he had an inappropriate sexual relationship with Flowers in the 1970s.

Flowers sued Hillary Rodham Clinton, George Stephanopoulos, James Carville, and others for defamation, claiming that they orchestrated a campaign to discredit her. A judge dismissed the case in favor of the defendants.

She currently runs a cabaret in a former bordello in New Orleans's French Quarter.
