Kris Kristofferson (22 Junie 1936 - 28 September 2024) was 'n Amerikaanse countrysanger, liedjieskrywer en akteur. Onder sy liedjieskryfkrediete is "Me and Bobby McGee", "For the Good Times", "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down" en "Help Me Make It Through the Night", wat almal treffers vir ander kunstenaars was.
In 1985 het Kristofferson aangesluit by mede-country-kunstenaars Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson en Johnny Cash in die country-musiek-supergroep die Highwaymen, wat 'n sleutel-kreatiewe krag was in die outlaw country-musiekbeweging wat die tradisionele Nashville country-musiekmasjien vermy het ten gunste van onafhanklike liedjieskryf en produseer.
As akteur was Kristofferson bekend vir sy rolle in Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973), Blume in Love (1973), Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974), A Star Is Born (1976) (wat hom 'n Golden Globe-toekenning vir beste akteur besorg het), Convoy (1978), Heaven's Gate (1980), Stagecoach (1986), Lone Star (1996), en die Blade-filmtrilogie (1998–2004). Kristofferson is in 2004 in die Country Music Hall of Fame opgeneem en het die Grammy Lifetime Achievement-toekenning in 2014 ontvang.
