BACKGROUND: The U.K.'s biggest female star, Natasha Bedingfield, has carved her place among America's most loved pop stars and her latest album, Pocketful of Sunshine, debuted on the Top 200 chart at No. 3. Currently, the album's title track is soaring up the pop and digital sales charts and the album has already spawned the hit single "Love Like This" (featuring Sean Kingston). Bedingfield's ubiquitous hit "Unwritten" was the most heavily played song on U.S. radio last year and can still be heard as the theme song to MTV's celebrated show, The Hills. This is Natasha's first headlining tour, although she has toured with superstars such as Justin Timberlake.
The Veronicas and Kate Voegele join Natasha Bedingfield on tour and at the Verizon Wireless Communications Store autograph session. The Veronicas are 23-year-old Australian twin sisters Lisa and Jessica Origliasso, whose latest electro-rock album, Hook Me Up, is due for digital release in the U.S. this month. Kate Voegele was recently spotlighted by Entertainment Weekly as being among the best of "the new golden age of female singer-songwriters" while Billboard hailed her as "An Artist to Watch in '08."
