No British woman had done it in almost twenty years, but that didn’t stop Natasha Bedingfield from snatching the first U.S. number one pop single slot in a generation.

“Unwritten”—off her debut album of the same name – was the most played pop song on the radio in the U.S. in 2006.

And when it became the theme song for hit reality TV series "The Hills," Bedingfield became a household name all over America.

Back across the Atlantic, she was already making waves with the chart-topping single “These Words.”

Bedingfield was lucky enough to learn from the best. Her brother Daniel had already cracked the UK music market with “Gotta Get Thru This.”

Bedingfield well and truly stole his thunder when "Pocketful of Sunshine" - off her second album - sold nearly three million copies.

Her massive success led to collaboration with some of the biggest names in showbiz, including Justin Timberlake, Eve, Sean Kingston and Lady Gaga. She’s even rubbed shoulders with the biggest name in politics, performing for US President Barack Obama at his Nobel Peace Prize Concert.

And as an ambassador for children’s charity "The Global Angels," her off-stage work is just as inspiring.

Ranked as one of "Time Magazine's" 100 most influential people, Dr. Hawass has uncovered some of civilization's most important and influential historical relics.

In 2006, Hawass and a group of archaeologists uncovered the sealed tomb of Hatshepsut in the Valley of the Kings.

Archaeologists and historians alike described the finding as "one of the most important events in the Valley of the Kings for almost a hundred years."

In addition to his discovery, Hawass has worked on a number of digs at sites in the Nile Delta, the Western Desert, and the Upper Nile Valley.

Today, Hawass is at the center of a new discovery that promises to be one of the region's biggest.

Hawass and a team of experts have just discovered two 4,300 year old tombs which were carved out of stone.

Comprised of Ray Manzarek, John Densmore, Robby Krieger and the late Jim Morrison, The Doors were one of the most controversial bands during the so-called Woodstock era in the late 1960s.

The group's most well-known member, Jim Morrison was the lead singer of the group and many of his songs are still played on radio waves.

Their first album released in 1967 and was titled "The Doors." The album features one of the band's most famous songs - the 12 minute epic, "The End."

The band's second single, "Light my Fire," was another big hit for the group and it sold over eight million copies.

Between 1967 and 1971, the band released a total of seven albums.

On July 3 1971, the lead singer of the group, Jim Morrison, was discovered dead at a Paris hotel room.

Although the remaining three members of the band continued to perform and release albums, their allure was slighty diminished with the absence of Morrison.

A new documentary called "When you're Strange," chronicles the life and adventures of the group with archive footage and exclusive interviews.

The documentary was filmed by Tom DiCillo and features John Densmore, Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek.
