Natalie Bassingthwaighte has dedicated her new single, `Love Like This', to celebrate the Wear it with Pride campaign and will give all of her profits from the single, to the ongoing support of the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) community. The new single is available digitally on iTunes www.itunes.com/nataliebassingthwaighte, bandit.fm www.bandit.fm/nataliebassingthwaighte and all digital retailers from January 29, 2010.

Natalie is a proud ambassador for the Wear it with Pride campaign which launches on 2 February 2010, and commemorates the ground-breaking human rights law reforms that have recently been introduced for same-sex couples in Australia*.

The song and video for 'Love Like This' are a key part of Wear it with Pride, a campaign aimed to spark conversation about the 85 law reforms that give same sex couples equal rights in the areas of employee entitlements, privacy rights, tax, superannuation, child support and insurance.

Gay and lesbian community members of all ages and their families were invited to appear in the video for 'Love Like This' which features many of the 85 T-shirts, custom designed by Australia's hottest artists and fashion designers. These t-shirts are set to be the centrepiece of the Wear it with Pride campaign, by commemorating the reforms and inspiring people to learn more about these historic changes. To learn further how these reforms affect lives and see the t-shirts and the `Love Like This' video visit www.wearitwithpride.com.au.

Natalie is joined in the video clip by a host of other campaign ambassadors including Kylie Gillies (The Morning Show), Richard Reid (Today show), drag identity Courtney Act, Dr Kerryn Phelps (former Head of the AMA) and Adam Sutton (Heath Ledger's inspiration for Brokeback Mountain).
Natalie says: "I would so love everybody to get behind this campaign and the message of this song as it would illustrate to the world how the whole country endorses and celebrates the LGBT community and these reforms. I support equal rights for all Australians and I hope that is what Love Like This and our video will say".

Other Wear it with Pride campaign ambassadors include Ruby Rose, Todd McKenney, Jess and Lisa Origliasso from the Veronicas, veteran actor, director and choreographer Noel Tovey, Bangara Dance Composer, David Page as well as influential members from the gay and lesbian community. Each ambassador will adopt one specific reform and educate Australia by wearing the T-shirt that is inspired by the law reform.

'Love Like This' was written, recorded and produced by the Grammy award winning team at METROPHONIC , who have produced and written for Enrique Iglesias, Celine Dion, Cher, Brittany Speers and Andrea Boccelli.

METROPHONIC have also provided the exclusive remix especially for this campaign. The single will be released digitally as a bundle of tracks to coincide with the launch of the campaign and incorporate other specially created mixes by the infamous Paul Goodyear and the team at Grant Smiley's team at NEON.
