In 2000, Summer participated in VH1's third annual ''[[VH1 Divas|Divas]]'' special, dedicated to [[Diana Ross]]; she sang the Supremes hit "[[Reflections (The Supremes song)|Reflections]]", and her own material for the show. "[[The Power of One (song)|The Power of One]]" is a theme song for the movie ''[[Pokémon: The Movie 2000]]''. The dramatic ballad was produced by [[David Foster]] and dance remixes were also issued to DJs and became another dance floor success for Summer, peaking at No. 2 on the same chart in 2000. In 2003, Summer issued her autobiography, ''Ordinary Girl: The Journey,'' and released a best-of set titled ''[[The Journey: The Very Best of Donna Summer]]''. In 2004, Summer was inducted into the [[Dance Music Hall of Fame]] as an artist, alongside the [[Bee Gees]] and [[Barry Gibb]]. Her classic song, "[[I Feel Love]]", was inducted that night as well. In 2004 and 2005, Summer's success on the dance charts continued with the songs "[[You're So Beautiful]]" and "[[I Got Your Love]]". In 2004, Summer re-recorded 'No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)' with the Irish pop band [[Westlife]] (with a live performance) for the compilation album, ''DiscoMania''.

In 2008, Summer released her first studio album of fully original material in 17 years, entitled ''[[Crayons (album)|Crayons]]''. Released on the [[Sony BMG]] label [[Burgundy Records]], it peaked at No. 17 on the US Top 200 Album Chart, her highest placing on the chart since 1983. The songs "[[I'm a Fire]]", "[[Stamp Your Feet]]" and "[[Fame (The Game)]]" all reached No. 1 on the US ''Billboard'' Dance Chart. The ballad "[[Sand on My Feet]]" was released to adult contemporary stations and reached No. 30 on that chart. Summer said, "I wanted this album to have a lot of different directions on it. I did not want it to be any one baby. I just wanted it to be a sampler of flavors and influences from all over the world. There's a touch of this, a little smidgeon of that, a dash of something else, like when you're cooking."<ref name="crayon">{{cite web |url=http://www.hollywoodbowl.com/philpedia/donna-summer |title=About the Performer Donna Summer |work=[[Hollywood Bowl]] |publisher=[[Los Angeles Philharmonic Association]] |access-date=14 April 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160330004219/http://www.hollywoodbowl.com/philpedia/donna-summer |archive-date=March 30, 2016 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref> On December 11, 2009, Donna Summer appeared at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert for [[Barack Obama]].<ref>{{YouTube|id=DK4Q9J01FQs|title=Donna Summer Live at Nobel Peace Prize Concert – 11 December 2009}}</ref>
