New Leona Lewis music video ‘I Will Be’


Leona Lewis got handcuffed from a police officer on the set of her latest music video ‘I Will Be’ in Brooklyn, New York. ‘Gossip Grirl’ actor Chace Crawford will be making a cameo in the video. A source told People how the UK singer and the actor met saying “Chace went to London a couple months ago for meetings and to promote Gossip Girl. He went to a party and ended up meeting Leona. Leona Lewis and Chace Crawford hit it off and talk every once in a while and have become fast friends… A couple weeks ago Leona called Chace Crawford and asked if he would be in her next video. Of course he said yes.

Leona Lewis wants to judge on The X Factor:


R&B singer Leona Lewis apparently developed such a great fondness of the show that granted her a debut that she desperately wants to be a part of it once more… but this time, in the judging box. She states that “’Maybe I could go back on it as a judge. Not yet, but in a few years. But I think I’d be a bit lenient – I’d be crying every few seconds!” Let’s just suppose that the extra years will give her the necessary experience to do such a job… but there is this absurd notion that judges usually have to be objective… not waste a gallon or two of diluted sodium chloride every time they have to do their job. But the way “talent” shows go these days, it probably wouldn’t be that big of an issue.

Musicians Stand Up to Cancer

13 of the world’s most famous female singers of this day pose with song creators/producers LA Reid and Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds at Fashion Rocks to sing the song ‘Just Stand Up’, the worldwide charity single which benefits Stand Up 2 Cancer. Keyshia Cole, Leona Lewis, Fergie, Ciara, Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J Blige, Rihanna, Carrie Underwood, Miley Cyrus, Ashanti, Nicole Scherzinger and Natasha Bedingfield are all decked out in their black Stand Up To Cancer t-shirts. The group said in its mission statement that “For the first time we can envision the possibility of stopping cancer in its tracks. But just when science is on the verge of giving us the breakthroughs that can end cancer, the will and the funding to do so are disappearing from the national agenda and from our collective consciousness.”

Leona Lewis’ ‘Bleeding Love’ continues to reign over the UK singles’ charts. The list was announced on Sunday and it marks the seventh week that Leona has been on top. The X-Factor winner’s debut CD ‘Spirit’ is also at the top spot of the albums’ chart and it’s been there for the last four weeks.

Looks like another musical head-to-head is about to go on, but this time, it’s between British babes. Leona Lewis’ debut album comes out next week in the UK, the same time that the Spice Girls are releasing their Greatest Hits CD. And wouldn’t you know it? The X-Factor winner is pretty much guaranteed the top spot!

Leona’s ‘Spirit’ is outselling the Spice Girls’ Greatest Hits by 6 to 1 in pre-sales. Her album is even expected to surpass the Artic Monkeys’ ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’ are the biggest-selling pre-release of the year. A projected 500,000 albums for her first effort is on for next week.

Not bad who used to work at a Pizza Hut not long ago.
