Cristinelli "Cristy" Fermin (born 1958, Nueva Ecija) is a Filipino talk show host and showbiz reporter. She finished Criminology at the Lyceum University of the Philippines.

She started her career as a political journalist, but soon turned towards writing for tabloids, about movie stars and other celebrities.

In April 2008, The Supreme Court (of the Philippines) affirmed a libel conviction and ordered her to pay a fine and damages to couple Anabelle Rama and Eddie Gutierrez instead of serving a jail term previously issued by a lower court.

Fermin also appeared in the 2003 Showbiz Gossip Series Showbiz Sabado with Edu Manzano and talent manager/host Alfie Lorenzo.

Fermin was suspended by the ABS-CBN management effective October 15, 2008 until December 31, 2008, on both The Buzz and the radio program Showbiz Mismo of DZMM, due to controversial rift issues between her and former actress Nadia Montenegro.
