"Can't Touch It" is a song by Australian singer and songwriter Ricki-Lee Coulter. It was written by Coulter with Brian Kierulf and Joshua M. Schwartz of KNS Productions, who also produced the song. "Can't Touch It" was released as the lead single from Coulter's second studio album Brand New Day on 4 August 2007. Upon its release, "Can't Touch It" peaked at number two on the ARIA Singles Chart and number one on the ARIA Dance Singles Chart, where it remained for eight consecutive weeks. It was certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association for shipments of 70,000 copies.

The accompanying music video was directed by Fin Edquist and features Coulter with her girlfriends at a nightclub. She promoted "Can't Touch It" with performances at instore appearances and the 2007 ARIA Music Awards. The song was also part of Coulter's set list for her first solo headlining tour, The Brand New Day Tour. In May 2008, a digital remix extended play of "Can't Touch It", re-titled "U Wanna Little of This", was released throughout Europe by dance label Ministry of Sound UK. "Can't Touch It" has been used for several American television shows and was featured in both the trailer and closing credits of the film Sex and the City 2 (2010).

In 2006, Coulter joined forces with previous Australian Idol contestants Paulini, Emily Williams and Kate DeAraugo to be part of the all-girl singing project called Young Divas. The project was initially formed to promote a joint 17-date national tour, where all singers would perform their solo material and several songs as a group. Together, they released a self-titled album of classic disco and pop covers, which included the top-ten singles "This Time I Know It's for Real" and "Happenin' All Over Again". The album was a commercial success, debuting at number four on the ARIA Albums Chart and was certified double platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association for shipments of 140,000 copies. In February 2007, Coulter headed overseas to work on her second solo album. Four months later, Coulter announced her departure from the Young Divas to resume her solo career. She was later replaced by Jessica Mauboy.
