Laura Imbruglia Kicks Justin Bieber’s Ass!

I’m always quietly thrilled to hear that anyone’s kicked Justin Bieber’s ass, even if it’s only in a metaphorical sense. When an Aussie does it, so much the better. So Laura Imbruglia, we salute you!

In its first week on MySpace, Laura’s new film clip for “I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend” attracted more than 14, 000 views, which saw it hold the number one spot for the entire week. Take that Bieber!

If you still haven’t seen the clip, here it is for your viewing pleasure. And remember, if you like what you hear check out Laura playing at Surry Hills’ Excelsior Hotel every Wednesday in August!

Laura Imbruglia Shows Her Lighter Side

Natalie might grab all the headlines, but her sister Laura Imbruglia has been quietly plugging away at her musical career for years. Something tells me that’s exactly how she likes it.

She’ll release her new single “I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend” on July 5, the first cut from her second album Lighter Side Of … The single’s playful video sees the Catholic-raised Laura break every commandment in the book, and a few besides including Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbour’s boyfriend and Thou Shalt Not Play Handball with Poor Co-Ordination! We’ll get a sneak peek of the clip when it makes its debut on Laura’s MySpace page on July 2.

If you want to see more rule breaking from Laura Imbruglia check her out each Wednesday in August at the Excelsior Hotel, Surry Hills. She’ll be donning a different hat each night; see Country Laura, Karaoke Laura, and other alter egos at the following shows!
