Natalia Jimenez, 29

The daughter of a Spanish father (who was also a singer) and a Portuguese mother, Natalia rose to fame as the effervescent lead singer of the Spanish pop band, La 5ª Estación. After completing four studio albums with the group (the last one, Sin Frenos, dropped in 2009 and received the Grammy award for Best Latin Pop Album in 2010), Natalia did what many superstars (Ricky Martin, Fergie) have done before her: she left the group to fly solo. Not only does Natalia have the backing of Sony behind her; she's also being mentored by Gloria and Emilio Estefan in the studio, as she readies her English debut album for the summer of 2011. And while you may love the sound of Natalia on the Spanish version of Ricky Martin's current hit, "The Best Thing About Me is You," we promise you that you're about to be blown away!
