Ginia Bellafante (born March 31, 1965) is an American writer and critic for the New York Times. She has worked for The New York Times for over ten years, starting as a fashion critic then spending the next five years reviewing television. In 2011, she began writing for the Big City column. She has also written for Time magazine.

Some of Bellafante's writing has been criticized for its treatment of gender issues. Her 1998 Time cover story "Is Feminism Dead?" was critiqued by Erica Jong, who said, "Time's idiotic cover story on feminism is, in short, a symptom of what's wrong, not an analysis."Salon.com described it as "poorly thought-out." Her 2011 review in The New York Times of the television series Game of Thrones was criticized as sexist for suggesting that only sexual content might motivate women to watch a complex fantasy story.

Bellafante lives in New York City with her husband and their son.
