I'm with Stupid is the second studio album by the American singer-songwriter Aimee Mann, released in 1995. It was produced by Jon Brion, who also produced her debut, Whatever (1993). The song "You're with Stupid Now" was inspired by Mann's friend Tony Banks, a British politician.
After Mann finished I'm with Stupid, her record company, Imago, encountered financial problems and delayed its release. Imago eventually sold it to Geffen, which signed Mann in 1994 and released I'm with Stupid in 1995. Like Whatever, it received positive reviews but failed to meet sales expectations.
