Natalie Jane Imbruglia, a talented Australian singer-songwriter, model, and actress, was born on February 4, 1975. Prior to her music career, Imbruglia was a household name in Australia as Beth Brennan in the popular television soap opera Neighbours. After departing the show, she ventured into the music industry and released her debut single "Torn" in the early 1990s, which became an international hit. This success led to the release of her debut album Left of the Middle in 1997, which sold over 6 million copies worldwide, solidifying her status as a rising star.
Imbruglia's subsequent albums, White Lilies Island in 2001 and Counting Down the Days in 2005, failed to match the commercial success of her debut, although the latter did become her first UK number one album. Her fourth studio album, Come to Life, was released in 2009, but it received little attention. The physical UK release was delayed to accommodate Imbruglia's commitments as a mentor and judge on the Australian version of The X Factor.
In addition to her music career, Imbruglia has also made a name for herself in the film industry. She co-starred in the 2003 comedy film Johnny English and made her leading actress debut in the 2009 drama film Closed for Winter. Throughout her career, Imbruglia has demonstrated her versatility and talent as a singer-songwriter, model, and actress.
