Early Life and Musical Beginnings
Natasha Maria Hamilton was born on July 17, 1982, in Liverpool, Merseyside, England. Raised in Kensington, she began singing at an early age and performed with the Starlight Show Group at age twelve. Her musical idols included Barry White and Quincy Jones.
Rise of Atomic Kitten
In 1999, Natasha joined the girl group Atomic Kitten, which had set out to rival the popularity of the Spice Girls. The group's debut single, "Right Now," reached number ten on the UK Singles Chart. Their second single, "See Ya," achieved even greater success, reaching number six.
Instability within the Group
Despite their popularity, Atomic Kitten faced constant turmoil within its lineup. In 2001, one member left and was replaced. In 2002, Natasha announced her pregnancy, although she remained in the group.
New Beginnings

Personal Life
Natasha has had three sons: Josh Cosgrove in 2002, Harry Hatcher in 2004, and Alfie Erraji in 2014. Her relationship with the father of Josh, club owner Fran Cosgrove, did not last, and she has also had other unsuccessful romantic relationships.
Awards and Recognition
In 2003, Natasha won the "Rears of the Year" award in an annual poll conducted in Britain. She dedicated the award to her mother, from whom she inherited her "appetizing" physique.
