Terry Lynn Ellis (born September 5, 1966 in Houston, Texas, USA) is an African-American R&B singer. After receiving a degree in Marketing from Prairie View A & M University, she joined En Vogue. En Vogue was planned to be a trio (a 1990s version of the Supremes), but the producers were so impressed by her voice, they made the group a quartet. In 1995 Ellis took time during the group's hiatus to release the solo CD, Southern Gal. The CD included the moderate hits "Where Ever You Are" (r&b #10) and "What Did I Do To You?" (r&b top 40).

En Vogue lost original members Dawn Robinson in 1997, and Maxine Jones in 2001, the latter replaced by Rhona Bennett. Ellis is currently touring with En Vogue (with a returned Maxine Jones), and can be seen with the original members in the new Stevie Wonder music video.
