Gloria Gaynor’s legendary career spans over 50 years, never losing momentum. The 2x GRAMMY winner has achieved global stardom with hit songs in the charts in all five decades. She has also shared her talent through roles in film, television, and the Broadway stage.

Gloria just released a brand new five song EP of inspirational pop-leaning songs entitled, “Happy Tears.” She co-wrote the songs with several hit songwriters who have penned hit songs for Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Meghan Trainor, John Legend, Avicii, Dolly Parton, Maroon 5, and more. The new EP is available worldwide on all digital platforms.

Earlier this year, it was announced that Gloria will be a 2025 Kennedy Center Honoree at the upcoming 48th Kennedy Center Honors in Washington, DC celebrating her inspirational career that has taken her to over 90 countries multiple times in order to uplift and encourage millions of people via her creative passion and drive to always help others to overcome life’s challenges and tragedies.

In addition to the two GRAMMY Awards that sit proudly on her fireplace mantle, Gloria has received several other honors. She was presented with the World Music Awards’ “Icon Award” and she has also been inducted into the United States Library of Congress for, “I Will Survive,” in recognition of its cultural significance. Gloria was also presented by Ido Aharoni (Consul General of Israel), with the “Martin Luther King Jr Award” acknowledging those who have gone above and beyond to inspire others.

The award winning full length feature documentary, “Gloria Gaynor: I Will Survive,” is now available on major streaming platforms. Filmmaker Betsy Schechter captured Gloria during her time in Nashville, Tennessee pursuing her dream of writing and recording a full length album of gospel songs entitled, “TESTIMONY.” The film highlights Gloria’s struggles alongside her team to get the self funded album signed to a record label so that she could share these new songs with the world. The documentary also shows Gloria realizing a dream as she wins the GRAMMY Award for Best Roots Gospel Album at the 2020 GRAMMY Awards in Los Angeles, California.

In September of 2024, Gloria performed a concert in front of her largest audience to date at Brazil’s world famous ROCK IN RIO Festival for over 150,000 people from around the world. This massive concert follows a 2024 that was packed with stellar performances for Princess Caroline of Monaco and famous designer Christian Louboutin, in Monte Carlo, Monaco as well as Riyadh, Saudi Arabia with legendary leading men, Kevin Costner and Anthony Hopkins and other global celebrities. Gloria was also part of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival Celebration in the South of France hosted by luxury jewelry company Chopard along with actress Demi Moore, model Bella Hadid, actress Diane Kruger, and filmmaker Greta Gerwig.

Deeply committed to helping others who are facing challenges, Gloria supports several charities such as the Breast Cancer Research Fund, Danny & Ron’s Animal Rescue, ChildFund International, the anti human trafficking charity Hope for Justice, A Father’s Place, the Miami Children’s Hospital and more. In order to be better equipped to work with organizations that support survivors of all kinds, Gloria went back to school and earned a Bachelor’s degree in psychology at the age of 71. She maintained her full touring schedule, performing concerts around the globe while taking courses remotely and working on assignments and term papers in more time zones than you can imagine.
