At age 17, Kat was selected by the Coca-Cola Company as part of an international campaign to market their soft drink Fanta.

She recently finished a world tour with The Black-Eyed Peas, and her voice is featured on Will.I.Am's solo release "Songs About Girls" ("I Got It From My Mama") and "The Donque Song," featuring Snoop Dogg. Additionally, she's working on her first album, which features collaborations with top producers like Dr. Hollywood and JR Rotem.
