Leona Lewis: X Factor Contestant

It’s hard to know who to believe today. The Mirror have published an article saying that Leona Lewis has just made her first million pounds, while the Sun is saying that she hasn’t got enough money to buy a house in her native Hackney.

The Mirror say that she bagged her first million after the royalty checks came rolling in for her hit number one single, Bleeding Love, which has also just hit number one in the US charts.

However The Sun is saying that Leona had to pull out of a house sale as the vendor upped the price by £100,000 to a total of £600,000 after they found out who she was. Leona then couldn’t afford to buy the house with her long term boyfriend, Lou.

So who do we believe? Well Leona’s dad has rubbished the millionaire claims saying:

“It’s a myth Leona is a millionaire. She earns enough to live on, but that’s it.”

So there you go.

    I would have thought it was too quick for her to be a millionare yet, however even if she was why should she pay more for a house just because of who she is that is greed.

    She would have earned a Million after leaving x-factor….the winner gets a 1 million pound recording deal. This means that she is paid this in one go, but all profits ACTUALLY made go to the production team – in future, because of her now status, she will likely earn much more per album.
