Heartbreak is the eighth album by American R&B group Shalamar, released in 1984 on the SOLAR label. It features a new line-up of Delisa Davis, Micki Free and Howard Hewett (Davis and Free having replaced Jeffrey Daniel and Jody Watley who had both left the group after the release of the previous album The Look). The album features "Dancing in the Sheets" from the Footloose soundtrack which was nominated for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 27th Grammy Awards and "Don't Get Stopped in Beverly Hills" from the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack which won Hewitt and Free a Grammy when the soundtrack won Best Album of Original Score Written for a Motion Picture or Television Special at the 28th Annual Grammy Awards. This would be Hewett's last album with the group before embarking on a solo career.
Heartbreak peaked at No. 32 on the R&B chart and No. 90 on the Billboard 200. The album was certified Gold in the United States by the RIAA for sales over 500,000.
