Natasha's commercial Touch Of Pink by LacosteThe very first public performance by Natasha, who hails from Copenhagen, took place over six years ago: "I was twelve years old," she reminisces, "and I sang 'Killing Me Softly'. I was very nervous because in the audience were a few kids from my class who were always making it hard for me at school. And I thought to myself: 'I'm not going to let them get me down; I'm going to show them.

Six years later Natasha really did show: Her debut single "Why (Does Your Love Hurt So Much)" (originally performed by Carly Simon) was released to great reception in Europe. "Ever since I was a child I knew that I wanted to be a singer," She says. And she worked hard at realizing her dream. Her professional attitude, diligence and iron discipline meant that the young Dane did not always have an easy time of things: "I had to change schools once because a couple of kids had got it in for me. They wanted to make life hard for me because I was different." But Natasha wasn't to be discouraged: She looked for a new school and focused on her favourite subjects, music and theatre. Natasha took dancing and singing lessons, ans started writing her own lyrics and songs. "Writing is a form of therapy for me. It helps me to cope with my experiences in life." When she recorded her debut single "Why (Does Your Love Hurt So Much)" at the beginning of 2003 the then 16-year-old Natasha travelled to Germany for the first time ever.

Although Natasha is currently focused on her own music career, there are, of course, pop stars that she admires: "I love Christina Aguilera. She has a great voice and her album 'Stripped' is amazing. I also like Jennifer Lopez; she seems so confident and appears to have fun doing what she does. And I admire them both as performers."

Natasha's pop career has left her with very little time for other hobbies: "At school I liked theatre - this is something I would like to maybe do in a few years. Unfortually, I rarely get the chance to do some reading; but when I have time I like to read the works of Michael Strunge, a Danish poet. I also love to watch television; best of all "Friends", it puts me in a good mood. When it comes to the cinema I like Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock - and Sean Penn, he's incredibly talented and intense. My favourite films are "The Sixth Sense" with Bruce Willis, I like the twist at the end. And "What Women Want" with Mel Gibson, because guys finally get to find out just how insensitive they can be at times."

For the future Natasha wants to be successful with music that she feels passionate about - and have a happy life for herself and her family. "My mother brought me up on her own and she always believed in me - I admire her for this and I am extremely grateful.
