YIKES! IS THAT REALLY YOU, NATALIE COLE?

Yep, that's her. She seems to have aged some since we last remember. Wow. Ms. Cole was spotted taking a stroll on NYC's upper west side yesterday. According to her website she works pretty steadily, with tour dates booked all over the country through Feb., 2011. The picture below is from Natalie Cole's official website, and is how we best remember her. Wow. For The Clueless: Natalie is daughter of legendary crooner Nat King Cole. She had a well documented drug problem some years ago. Hopefully, she's clean today. Maybe it's just now showing up in her looks. That happens, you know. Good incentive to stay drug free, yea?
