Alison Jiear (born 5 May 1965) is a popular cabaret artist on the London cabaret circuit.

She has appeared in several West End Musicals including The Hot Mikado, Jerry Springer: The Opera and Grease (musical). She was featured in the motion picture Being Julia.

She was nominated for the 2004 Laurence Olivier Award for best actress in a musical for her role in Jerry Springer: The Opera, in which she played the character of Shawntel, an overweight, middle-aged woman who dreams of becoming a pole dancer. Though never paid for the project, a remixed version of her rendition of ”I Just Wanna Dance” from the musical became a popular dance track in nightclubs in the U.S., Europe and Australia.

In 2006, she also starred in a humorous Burger King commercial in the UK that pastiched Meat Loaf’s music videos.
