Natalia - Perfect Day

http://www.nataliaofficial.com

If you are a fan of rising UK pop star Natalia, but haven't had the time to go around and read all the information about her, you've come to the right place. Here's a quick take on Britain's newest contribution to the roster of pop female artists. 

Natalia is actually Natalia Hajjara. Her father is Lebanese-Jordanian while her mother is Welsh-Greek. They separated when she was 3, and for a time she lived with her dad in Jordan.

Natalia took up classical ballet on a full scholarship from Elmhurst Ballet School, one of Britain's leading dance schools. It was only later during her studies that she also studied jazz as a musical form, which eventually led her on to her singing career. She cites R&B, soul, and jazz as other influences to her pop music.

Natalia's first musical stint was with girl band Pussy Katz. Short-lived, obviously as there's hardly anything on the internet that mentions them. Her first real break in the industry came when she was discovered by music producer K Warren.

Natalia's first hit single is actually "Thanx 4 Nothing." This song was among several Natalia penned and produced with Warren. It hit the top of the charts of MySpace unsigned artists during 2006. It was in December of that year that Mark Shimmel of Upper 11 Records discovered and her and signed her to their label.

Natalia's upcoming album is entitled "All of Me." There are already two singles out for this album, "Pretty Like Me" and "Perfect Day." In the meantime, you can also catch Natalia as she is currently on tour, supporting girl band Girls Aloud.

Here are a few fun facts about Natalia pulled from her blogs and journals that might interest her loyal fans.
Natalia has formed her own club called Unique and United. This is her own personal effort to encourage the youth to look use their talents and abilities to express themselves, and to appreciate their unique beauty and individuality. It's already spawned a spin-off magazine with the same name.

Natalia actively campaigns for youth charities, especially for the programs against bullying. She's currently an active supporter of UK Youth and Beat Bullying, charities that help support youth programs that seek to fight bullying of all forms in the schools and communities.

Natalia often gets into trouble with the law! But not in an Amy Winehouse or Britney Spears way. She admits that she's not a very good driver and has a tendency to inadvertently park in places where it's not allowed. Traffic tickets in her name are not an uncommon occurrence.

Natalia is afraid of peacocks! During one of her recent supporting gigs for Girls Aloud at Tottenham Castle, she had an encounter with the birds that wandered the grounds of the castle. She called them "big scary pheasants" and ended up hiding behind her manager and friend.
Finally, a "Perfect Day" blouse is already available in Topshop's flagship store in Oxford.
