Сти́вен Па́трик Мо́ррисси (англ. Steven Patrick Morrissey, в качестве сценического имени использует свою фамилию Мо́ррисси; род. 22 мая 1959, Дэвихалм, Ланкашир, Великобритания) — британский рок-музыкант и поэт, основатель (совместно с гитаристом Джонни Марром) и вокалист существовавшей с 1982 по 1987 годы британской инди-рок-группы The Smiths. После распада The Smiths Моррисси начал успешную сольную карьеру: десять его синглов попадали в первую десятку UK Singles Chart, а несколько альбомов занимали первую строчку в этом хит-параде. Журнал NME назвал Моррисси «одним из самых влиятельных артистов всех времён». Моррисси известен как ярый защитник прав животных: музыкант выразил своё отношение к употреблению мяса в заглавии альбома Meat Is Murder («Мясо — это убийство») и в одноимённой песне; на концертах он нередко обращает внимание зрителей на проблему идей гуманного обращения с животными; своими зачастую скандальными заявлениями о недопустимости употребления убойной пищи певец снискал славу непримиримого противника мясоедения; тем самым, согласно формулировке PETA, Моррисси «помог сделать мир более добрым к животным», за что в 2011 году был отмечен званием «человека года» по версии этой организации.
