"Enamorada" is a song by the Mexican recording artist Paulina Rubio from her fourth studio album, Planeta Paulina (1996).

"Enamorada" received mostly positive reviews from music critics, some of whom highlighted the track as an album stand-out and commended the lyrical and vocal delivery. The song has ended up becoming an anthem for the LGBT community; Uruguayan writer Charli Farinha Toni alluded to "Enamorada" as a "gay anthem" in her novel Desafíos en los Caminos.

In January 2002 an English version was released for US rhythmic radio only, titled "I'm So In Love" to promote the compilation album I'm So in Love: Grandes Éxitos (2002). [4]
A music video for "Enamorada" was directed by Fernando de Garay, which showed a homosexual couple and the rainbow flag openly on television. A theme that was still considered a taboo at that time. [5] Over time, critics and journalists praised Rubio as one of the first Latin artists to open up to the LGBT community. The staff of the Spanish women's magazine MujerdeElite wrote "[Rubio] was one of the first singers in the 1990s to incorporate gay images in her music videos" referring to the music video for "Enamorada", where she shows a homosexual couple. The publication quoted, "Since then, she has been the diva of choice for her upbeat, infectious music, full of eroticism and sexuality." [6]
