'''Glamdozer''' is a boss who appears in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. She is fought in the first level of the [[Flipsville Galaxy]].
==Battle==
To defeat Glamdozer, the player must flip to the underside of the boss area and slam her while she is sleeping with a [[Ground Pound]] through the central [[grate]]. This will get her attention. Then, the player must return to the underside of the platform and try to hit her again. If Glamdozer isn't standing over a gate, the player must stand on the nearest gate and wait until she charges toward it. She can also fire large flaming orbs that can get caught in the gates, making it impossible for the player to flip it. Glamdozer can also chase the player to the other side of the arena as well. When hit two more times, Glamdozer will get angry and will have faster attacks and more awareness. After Glamdozer is defeated, a [[Power Star]] will appear.
