Kelly Clarkson has offered X Factor winner Leona Lewis some words of advice on the music industry, and how to stay on top.
She tells Leona that she must remained focussed and willing to stand up for herself if she wishes to acheive any longevity in the pop charts.
The 2002 American Idol winner told The Sun: “If I’ve one bit of advice for her it would be that, no matter where you have come from, you must stick to your guns. Read more & comment »
Leona Lewis’ single, Bleeding Love has sold out at HMV stores in various parts of the UK.
New stock is being dispatched asap, and HMV have reported that Leona is on track to sell an astounding 250,000 copies of the song, making it the fastest selling single of the year so far.
X Factor judge Simon Cowell has this week blasted Take That for releasing their latest single, Rule The World in the same week Leona Lewis releases her bid for number one, Bleeding Love.
Simon told BANG Showbiz: “I am annoyed Take That have chosen to release their new single at the same time as Leona. I just don’t know why they would do that.
I am confused as to why Simon Cowell thinks that Take That owe Leona Lewis any favours. Wasn’t it enough that they sang with Leona on last year’s X factor live final, helping her win the XF title?
This Monday, all you Leona Lewis fans out there will have the chance to chat with her in a live GMTV webcast.
Leona is getting ready to release her second single ‘Bleeding Love’ as well as her new album Spirit. So if you saw Leona on tonight’s X Factor show and want to let her know what you thought, be at GM.TV at 9.30am on Monday morning!

X Factor winner Leona Lewis has revealed that she will be buying her first home later this year. It won’t be in the UK, but in LA where she will spend next year promoting her new album.
“We are promoting the album in the UK, then in America. So I want to buy a place in Santa Monica,” Lewis told the Sunday Mirror. “I love being by the beach and the Pacific Ocean.
“When I first moved out there I was really missing my family and my boyfriend. But my dream now would be to live in California in the winter and here in the summer. I’m going to buy a house there first. And maybe one in London later.”
Jamelia seems to think that if she slags off enough people in the press people will rush out to buy her records. It may work for Lily Allen but I’m not sure that Jamelia is going to have the same success.
Bitchy singer, Jamelia, has once again turned her vapid tongue to X Factor winner Leona Lewis in her latest attack.
She told The Sun: “When Simon stops all this stupid hype about her, that’s when we’ll see if she can deliver. Like every artist Simon has, she’ll fade into obscurity eventually.”
Jamelia added: “Only Will Young has been successful, and that was because he’s talented and cut ties with Simon. Leona is a poor man’s Mariah Carey.
“Simon’s lost it. He is disrespectful. Leona may be talented, but she’s not worked as hard as me or others in the industry - fact!”
I’m not sure if she is actually part of the scene or if the Leona’s recent appearances alongside the rich and famous are all part of a Sony BMG PR offensive, but Leona Lewis sure does seem to be going up in the world.
Just one short year ago, Leona wasn’t even sure if she had made it through to the X Factor’s final twelve acts, and now she is partying with the like of Kanye West and Rihanna. Read more & comment »
