Natasha Bedingfield, EA Bond Girl
Report claims singer has role in 'From Russia with Love'

Bedingfield Confirmed for 'Russia' Cameo
Singer joins video game cast as an original character

This article on Billboard.com mentions that British singer Natasha Bedingfield will appear in a new Bond game this fall. I assume that it's FRWL.

Cool!

[bryonalston]

I have no idea who she is, but I hope she can pull off a convincing Russian accent in the game.

Seems odd they'd snag a singer to play a role in a video game. I bet this is similar to Mya from Everything or Nothing. Expect her to sing the theme and then later be a minor Bond girl in the game. My bet...

She apparently sang the credit theme to GoldenEye: Rogue Agent. I've never played the game so I can't confirm nor contest this.

Who said she's going to play Tatiana Romanova?

[zencat]

Maybe she's one of the fighting gypsy girls? Natash Bedingfield vs...Christina Aguilera. With Shakira providing the belly dance warm-up.

Hey, I can dream, can't I?

Nice find, IanFleming1953.

[Righty007]

With Shakira providing the belly dance warm-up.

That's a name I haven't heard in a long time. She is really hot!

[k13oharts]

In this corner...
Shakira, a contender standing 5'2"...
In the other corner from around the corner
Natasha Beddingfield... (anyone knows her height?)

I would love for both of them to do a song title in the future.
They have both quite a following.

I don't know about this...

I have a feeling someone's just gotten crossed wires regarding her involvement with GoldenEye: Rogue Agent.

Then again, perhaps she's being asked back? Although it wasn't like she wrote an original song for GoldenEye: Rogue Agent, or anything.

[k13oharts]

Apparently, we don't know so much about GoldenEye: Rogue Agent's music apart from knowing that Paul Oakenfold was the music supervisor.

Did she really perform for GE:RA?

The only search result I got was:

With a comment by a disgruntled game player...

For those who have the game, can you guys look at the credits?

[[dark]]

She performs "If You're Gonna Jump" over the game's closing titles, I believe. It's a remix of the song by Paul Oakenfold (the remix itself has appeared as a b-side on one of Bedingfield's singles).

[Gri007]

Perhaps she would sing the title song aswell. Mind you she did sing the end titles of Goldeneye: Rogue Agent.

[Moonraker]

Ah, casting news i'm not disapointed in. and i'm sure she won't play Tatiana because i heard they where gonna use the likeness of Daniela Bianchi, and since she is rising in popularity the will want to use her likeness for one of the other bond girls(the new ones they keep talking about). and i wouldn't mind one bit if she sang the theme.

[Righty007]

I bought her album, "Unwritten," today.

[trumanlodge89]

she is quite good looking.

[ComplimentsOfSharky]

I bought her album, "Unwritten," today.

And? I heard the single somewhere...catchy... but it didn't strike me as something worth buying.

[Bon-san]

Seems odd they'd snag a singer to play a role in a video game.

Unless it's because she's a HOTTIE with a cool voice.

I do believe that this "voice" has potential to do a Bond track.

By the way... what do some of you think about "I Bruise Easily".

I've only listened to it once so far and it's okay. I really like "These Words (I Love You, I Love You)."

[Qwerty]

Sounds good.

[k13oharts]

Did you know that there's a hidden track in her album "Unwritten"?
It's at 00:05:58 of "Wild Horses" and the title is called "A Perfect Day".

I like this track
It's a feel good song.

[Tanger]

It's just called "If You're Gonna" and yes, it is the Oakenfold remix and does play over the end credits.

Isn't it nice how when something leaks EA comes out and confirms. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we lived in a universe where Eon did this?

Good work as always [dark].

[hcmv007]

Good choice, caught her video this morning, she's beautiful! What amazed me more was that a music video channel was actually playing a music video! But I am looking forward to the game.

That'd be too easy and wreck all the fun they're having though. Seriously, sometimes I picture Barbara and Michael sitting in a room reading CBn or some other news site and just having a good laugh. "Oh...hey.. check this out, some idiot actually believes Ewan Stewart is in the running for Bond.. HAHAHA"

By the way, the word is that there are 3 new Bond girls, two have been confirmed: Bedingfield and Menounos, a third announcement is supposedly imminent from what I've heard and I'm sure soon after that we'll know for sure who is doing the title song, if it isn't Bedingfield already.
