Tata's 2004 debut English-language album, "I Believe," won her fans throughout Asia, placing her among a small circle of Asian pop stars to grow beyond their nation's borders. But Tata, the only daughter of an American father and Thai mother, hopes her second English-language album released in September, "Temperature Rising," will propel her to worldwide fame, and her determination is backed by the songwriters "People who represent me have made a lot of people famous... like, come on, Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, you name them all," the 25-year-old Bangkok native said, in a thick midwestern American accent that mimics her father's. and producers behind the sounds of Spears, Ricky Martin and Christina Aguilera. 》 HOROSCOPE Associated Press The more information you gather, the farther ahead you'll be.
