Biography
Natalie Jane Imbruglia was born on February 4, 1975 in New South Wales, Australia. She is the second of four daughters of an Italian father and an Australian mother. She studied ballet as a child, hoping to make a career out of it. Later, she started auditioning for Australian TV commercials and appeared in spots for Coke a' Cola and a popular Australian snack called Twisties. By sixteen she left high school to start a career in acting.
Eventually, she obtained the chance to play a regular role on the Australian soap opera, Neighbors. By the end of her second year, she departed the show to move to London, immersing herself in the city's club scene. Soon after her move she decided to try her hand at songwriting, something which she had never attempted. Her effort paid off and she was signed to BMG. She came up with a demo for the song Torn which greatly impressed RCA Records and got her signed for a contract with them. Her first internationally released single was a cover of the song Torn. It reached number two in the British charts upon its debut and broke the record for the most airplay in the UK at the time. It was also released in the United States on the radio. It impressed radio audiences and stayed at the top spot of the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay for eleven weeks. As the CD was not sold in physical form, it did not reach the Billboard Hot 100 Singles. Torn sold over a million copies in the United Kingdom.
Her debut album was a hit as well. Left of the Middle was released in 1998 and became a huge hit in Australia and the United Kingdom. It was also a hit in the US after its release in the States. In 2001, she released White Lilies Island in the U.K. to medium reviews and sales. It was almost four years later, in 2005, when she released Counting Down the Days her third CD. It was her first CD to make it to the top of the charts internationally.
In other venues, she has been a spokes model for L'Oreal cosmetics and has also appeared in cameo appearances in several films including Johnny English.
