Wanda Osiris (pronounced [ˈvanda oˈziːris]; 3 June 1905 – 11 November 1994) was an Italian revue soubrette, actress and singer.

Born Anna Menzio in Rome, the daughter of a groom, she studied violin at a young age. She debuted on stage in 1923, in the revue Osvaldo mio mi fai morire. She was the major diva of the Italian revue between 1930s and 1950s, until a new type of soubrette, more saucy and comical, surfaced. She retired in 1975 and died in 1994 of a heart attack at the age of 89.
