Natasha Bedingfield
Natasha Bedingfield (born November 26, 1981 in London, UK) is a pop singer and is also the sister of fellow pop singer Daniel Bedingfield. Before going solo, she was a member of a Christian worship band named The DNA Algorithm with her sister Nikola and brother Daniel. She went onto co-write a number of Christian worship songs at the popular Hillsong London Church. Her debut album, Unwritten, landed at #1 on the UK Albums Chart in September 2004. By the second week it went platinum, and it is now triple platinum. She also had a #3 single in the UK Singles Chart titled "Single" in May 2004 as well as a #1 single titled "These Words" in August 2004. And along with every other single released came a Top 10 chart position for each.
Not only is Natasha the third solo singer in UK history to debut at #1, but she and her famous brother Daniel Bedingfield recently made it into the Guinness Book of World Records as the only brother and sister to have solo number ones in UK chart history.
Having already hit #1 in the UK, Ireland, Holland, Japan, Austria, Africa, France, and New Zealand, (just to name a few), "These Words" was released to U.S. radio in June 2005, and the music video (which is a new version different from the European video) began receiving play on MTV and VH1. So far, it has reached #17 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #9 on the Pop 100 singles charts. The album, Unwritten, was released on August 2, 2005 in the U.S.
"Unwritten" will be Natasha's next U.S. single. She appeared in From Russia with Love, a video game by Electronic Arts, as a Bond girl.
