Mauvaises nouvelles des étoiles is the fourteenth studio album by French singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg. It was released on 17 November 1981 through Mercury/Universal Records. Produced by Philippe Lerichomme, the album musically follows the reggae style of its predecessor, Aux Armes et Caetera (1979).
John Bush of Allmusic gave the album a mixed review, stating: "The breezy melodies of his prime material from the '60s and '70s are unfortunately missing." He also further added: "Though the sound and production is up to Gainsbourg's usual high standards, the songs are much weaker than expected. With little to anchor it except the players and Gainsbourg's seedy vocal delivery, Mauvaises Nouvelles des Etoiles simply floats away."
All lyrics and music written by Serge Gainsbourg.
