7. Natasha Bedingfield

This next artist has star status already running through her family tree. Natasha Bedingfield, the younger sister of Daniel Bedingfield (known for his 2001 hit “Gotta Get Thru This“), made her debut in 2004 just like many of her blonde competitors. Her biggest single was “Unwritten,” released in 2005. It was the theme song for reality series The Hills, and was inescapable on the radio.

The singer continued to put out music up until 2012, with her collaboration with Lifehouse on their single “Between The Raindrops.” That same year, she announced that she was working on her fourth studio album The Next Chapter – but it never saw the light of day. Bedingfield can make up for lost time by dropping another single during Q4; we would definitely appreciate it!

8. Blu Cantrell

Blu Cantrell may have only released two albums, but boy were they gems! 2001 saw her debut with So Blue, featuring the ladies anthem “Hit ‘Em Up Style (Oops).” The single peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and spent two consecutive weeks at that spot. She followed up with her sophomore album Bittersweet, which included the Sean Paul-assisted “Breathe.” The record earned her a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album, proving that she could stand next to the other established singers in the field.

Blu then released a greatest hits compilation in 2005, with only two albums under her belt! Honestly, when will your fave? Her last known appearance was in 2008, on NBC’s Celebrity Circus. After that, she was nowhere to be found. Blu, if you’re reading this, please do us all a favor and make a musical resurrection.
