Robert Lapointe, der Boby Lapointe (* 16. April 1922 in Pézenas, Département Hérault, Frankreich; † 29. Juni 1972 ebenda) gerufen wurde, war ein französischer Sänger, der für seine an Kalauern und zotigen Schüttelreimen reichen Texte bekannt war. Für den Kabarettisten Thomas Pigor ist Boby Lapointe wegen seiner formalen Experimentierfreude, die im krassen Gegensatz zur heutigen Konformität stehe, ein klassisches Vorbild.
