| Natasha Bedingfield is the kind of woman who knows who she is and what she wants, and then goes out and gets it. We can't resist that self-confidence, especially since Natasha's prodigious talent, emotional empathy and good looks back it up. |

Natasha Bedingfield was born on November 26, 1981, in Lewisham, southeast London, England. The daughter of two New Zealand-born social workers, Natasha grew up alongside three siblings: Daniel, Nikola and Joshua. While she is close to all of them today, her and the eldest sibling, Daniel, were rivals growing up.
Natasha showed an interest in music from an early age. Daniel and younger sister Nikola shared Natasha's passion, and the three Bedingfields formed their own group, the DNA Algorithm, when they were teenagers. But for Natasha, music remained a hobby at first. Torn between pursuing art or psychology studies in college, Natasha settled on psychology.
After two years of balancing college work and music, Natasha withdrew from university in order to write songs full-time. Honing her skills on guitar and piano, Natasha wrote songs and recorded in friends' studios in the hopes of building up a body of work that she could take to a record company. In the meantime, her brother Daniel became a pop star, and Natasha, mindful of her own talents, was encouraged by his example and industry contacts.
Once she was ready, Natasha took her demos to Phonogenic, an imprint of BMG. The record company was impressed by both her music and her unique attitude, and signed Natasha up. She next went to Los Angeles for six months of writing and recording with some of pop music's top writing and producing talents. |
