"Hot Stuff" is a song by Pete Bellotte, Harold Faltermeyer, and Keith Forsey released as the lead single by American singer Donna Summer on her seventh studio album Bad Girls, produced by English producer Pete Bellotte and Italian producer Giorgio Moroder in 1979 through Casablanca Records. Up to that point, Summer had mainly been associated with disco songs but this song also showed a significant rock direction, including a guitar solo by ex-Doobie Brother and Steely Dan guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter. It is the second of four songs by Summer to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100.{{cite magazine|first= Keith |last= Caulfield |title= Donna Summer's Top 20 Billboard Chart Hits |magazine= Billboard |date= May 17, 2012 |access-date= June 13, 2014 |url= http://www.billboard.com/articles/list/488345/donna-summers-top-20-billboard-chart-hits}}

When the song was heard by Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus it inspired them to write ABBA's 1979 hit Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) with similar riffs, melody and sentiment with the ABBA girls in need of 'a man after midnight and Donna looking for some 'hot stuff'.

In 2018, a remix by Ralphi Rosario and Erick Ibiza entitled "Hot Stuff 2018" went to number one on the US Dance Club Songs chart.{{cite magazine|title= Dance Club Songs |magazine= Billboard |date= June 30, 2018 |access-date= June 26, 2018 |url= https://www.billboard.com/charts/dance-club-play-songs/2018-06-30}}
