SHE was in one of the most famous girl groups of the 90s.
But many people have been left stunned after seeing just how “unrecognisable” the 42-year-old singer looks like now.

The comments ran rife after she shared a video of herself singing her new tune Burning Letters on her TikTok page.
The clip showed her wearing a black top, jeans, black beanie and jacket as she stood in the grounds of what appeared to be an old building and lip synced along to the tune.
“I ain’t angry, I’m just burning letters,” she captioned the video.
However, rather than commenting on the tune itself, there were countless people weighing in on her appearance – insisting ex Atomic Kitten star Natasha Hamilton looked vastly different than in her heyday.
“Thought it was Sophie from Geordie Shore,” one person wrote.
“Omg so did I!!!! Sophie Kasaei!” another agreed.
While a third argued she looked more like another Geordie Shore star – Chloe Ferry.
“Beautiful voice, but hardly recognised you,” someone else said.
“Didn’t recognise her,” another added.
As someone else agreed that she was “unrecognisable”.
Natasha joined the girl group in 1999, replacing Heidi Range, and they released their debut single Right Now later that year.
However, they didn’t enjoy success until they released their tune Whole Again, which topped the UK charts and remained in the number one position for four consecutive weeks.
They went on to have mixed success with their following singles and albums, before announcing in 2004 that they were planning to take a hiatus.
The group went through various formations and comebacks, including an appearance on The Big Reunion, before Natasha announced in October 2024 that she was officially leaving Atomic Kitten.
She said at the time that she had made that decision in order to concentrate on a solo career, and will be releasing her a solo EP “soon”, through the label she founded.
Despite many of the rude comments on the TikTok video, others defended Natasha.
All the naff 90s clothing Gen Z thinks is trendy
Millennials survived Robbie Williams leaving Take That, the Y2K bug . . . and low-slung waists.
Despite slating millennials every chance they get, Gen Z are now busy rifling through second-hand shops and pop culture archives trying to bring back the most disastrous trends.
Fabulous‘ Fashion Editor, Clemmie Fieldsend, shares the 90s fashion trends she thinks are “naff” but Gen Z think are “cool”.
“They told us skinny jeans were uncool and, while I agree with them, it’s hard to take fashion advice from someone wearing a skirt over jeans and a knit Andi Peters would have worn on kids’ TV.
Pedal Pushers
I was astonished when I saw Topshop pedal pushers stocked on Asos. They were the go-to trew of fashion’s most unstylish era – the late Nineties, early Noughties. And now they’re back on Emily Ratajkowski and Alexa Chung, and being sold on the high street.
Fuddy Fleeces
The naffest of all the Nineties fash deemed acceptable right now has to be the fleece – you probably had a knock-off Berghaus one back in the day.
In October, customers went wild for F&F at Tesco’s North Face dupe, which cost £37 (£283 less than the £320 original) and got seven million TikTok views.
Cropper Coat
The slightly padded waterproof coat is a hit with celebs at the moment.
As far as I can see, this coat is inspired by one of TV’s most unlikely fashion muses, Coronation Street character Roy Cropper, who has worn it for the past 30 years on the cobbles.
But brands such as Prada and Bottega have seemingly been inspired by Roy’s beige jacket.”
“Girl you’re like fine wine,” one wrote.
“You’re only getting better with age!”
“She looks beautiful – what’s up with people ?!?” another added.
“The comments are so mean,” a third raged.
“She’s lovely and she sounds great.”
