Natalia Cappuccini (born Natalia Noemi Keery-Fisher; 15 August 1986),[5][6][7] better known by her stage name Natalia Kills, is an English recording artist, record producer, fashion designer, actress and director. She was born, and raised a part of her early life in Bradford. Kills studied at the Bradford Girls’ Grammar School before briefly attending the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. She withdrew from LAMDA to focus on her musical career. She soon began performing in the hip hop music scene and got signed by Adventures in Music in 2003. However, this agreement was stopped two years later, following disappointing sales of a debut single as well as financial difficulties encountered by the record label. By the end of 2008, record executive and producer will.i.am signed her to his label will.i.am Music Group, an imprint of Interscope Records. Initially working as a songwriter at Cherrytree Records, her vocal abilities captured the attention of recording artist Akon, who also signed her to Kon Live Distribution, his own label under Interscope. She released her debut album, Perfectionist, in 2011, and her second album, Trouble, in September 2013.[8]

Although only 5’6″,[9] Kills is also a model. She is frequently photographed for fashion magazines, and has received global media attention related to her clothing and style.[10][11][12][13][14]
