NATASHA HAMILTON, one third of Atomic Kitten, the UK's most internationally successful girl group of the last ten years is to make her West End stage debut in Willy Russell's legendary musical, BLOOD BROTHERS. Her opening performance will be Monday 24 January 2011 at London's Phoenix Theatre.

Liverpool born Natasha will star in one of the longest running shows in musical history. She will follow
in the footsteps of Barbara Dickson, Kiki Dee, Carole King, Helen Reddy and, most recently, critically
acclaimed Spice Girl Melanie C in taking on the iconic role of Mrs Johnstone.

Natasha Hamilton is a recognised singer, TV personality, and businesswoman, who is currently
celebrating the arrival of her third son Alfie, with husband Riad and sons Josh and Harry. She is due to
release her debut solo album, with the first single the suitably titled "Ms Emotional".

Natasha enjoyed unprecedented success with Atomic Kitten: the band's debut hit "Right Now" broke
in to the top ten in December before they released their anthem, the worldwide number 1 smash
hit "Whole Again" which topped the UK chart for 4 weeks and was a global smash spending 6 weeks at
number one in Germany and going to the top spot in 19 countries. They followed this huge success with
another number 1 "Eternal Flame" and the number 1 album "Right Now". The Kittens' 2nd album "Feels
So Good" continued where Right Now left off, delivering another worldwide number 1 with "The Tide
Is High". The band topped the singles, albums and dvd charts simultaneously, still the only girl group to
ever achieve this feat. To date Atomic Kitten have sold over 10 million records worldwide.

Natasha has also continually fronted campaigns for many high profile brands, as well as working
tirelessly for numerous charities including the New Children's hospital in Manchester, Alder Hey
Children's hospital, Cancer Research UK, Children in Need, Barnados and The Outward Bound Trust.
