New Video: Leona Lewis - I Got You

Who Would Leona Lewis Love To Collaborate With?


Leona Lewis would love to work with Jay-Z. The 24 year old singer says, “I like Jay-Z, if any rapper. I’m not into rap music. But if anyone, it would be Jay-Z.”

Maybe that won't happen right away but hopefully Hov can pencil her in. Leona's next album Echo is available November 17. Listen for collaborations with Justin Timberlake, Ryan Tedder, Max Martin, and Novel.

VH1 Divas To Air In September


VH1 will bring back live concert event VH1 Divas by featuring some of pop music’s most talented female artists. Adele, Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis and Miley Cyrus will be featured. The VH1 Divas concert will be televised live on VH1 on Thursday, September 17 at 9/8c.

I would really like to know what is considered a diva to VH1. The last ones that were featured were Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston...I think Miley is wayyyy off from the other people featured.

Leona Gets One Republic Singer To Work On Album Again


The British singing sensation, Leona Lewis, is teaming up again with One Republic frontman Ryan Tedder for her next album.
Tedder, who produced and cowrote Lewis' international breakout hit, "Bleeding Love," tells me that he and Lewis recently spent a week in a recording studio together.
"We did about two and a half songs, and we already have something that everybody's extremely happy about," Tedder reveals.

I also heard Justin Timberlake is working on the album too.

Mariah Wants Leona Lewis To Play Her



This is most likely bogus, but I just had to post.

Mariah Carey is reportedly hoping that Leona Lewis will star in a Broadway musical based on her life.

The 39-year-old singer has been in talks with musical producers about a forthcoming production for months, but only agreed to the project following a discussion with husband Nick Cannon over Christmas, reports The Mirror.

The show, which will tentatively open in 2009, is expected to cover Carey's meteoric rise to fame, her marriage and divorce from music executive Tommy Mottola, rumours of a nervous breakdown and her recent marriage to Cannon.

"
Mariah’s not sure if she’ll star in it herself," revealed an insider. "If she doesn’t, names being tossed around include High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens and Desperate Housewife Eva Longoria.

"
But Mariah secretly likes the idea of Leona Lewis playing her. Not only is she exotic, she’s the only one who they reckon would be able to tackle Mariah’s eight-octave vocal range."

Leona Lewis New video News


Leona Lewis gets handcuffed by a police officer on the set of her latest music video “I Will Be” in Brooklyn, New York City on Friday.

Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford will make a cameo in the vid. A source tells People how they met: “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. [The two] hit it off and talk every once in a while and have become fast friends… A couple weeks ago Leona called Chace and asked if he would be in her next video. He obviously said yes.”

“I Will Be” was co-written by Avril Lavigne and Max Martin.

Coldplay was the hottest iTunes album download this year: Its “Viva la Vida” was crowned the best-selling album of 2008, while Leona Lewis’ “Bleeding Love” was named the top-selling single.

Rocker Courtney Love has been completely honest with her daughter about her battle with drugs - even telling the youngster she took heroin during her pregnancy. Love openly admits taking a variety of illegal drugs while she was pregnant with 16 year old Frances Bean, her daughter with late husband Kurt Cobain. But the singer insists she didn't know she was expecting at the time. She tells British Elle magazine, "My daughter knows I did drugs in my first trimester of pregnancy. She weighed 7lbs 6oz when she was born and she was healthy."

The signed stuff is then auctioned off to raise money to fight the disease. When you win the auction you receive a 8x10 picture of the celeb with the elephant, the signed card by that celeb, and an elephant beanie baby. The summer round of auction began yesterday with five auction live each day until Sunday July 27.
