  • <3

  • it's not britain's version of American idol! Grr!

  • she's one of the most amazing singers currently. unfortunately, she doesn't have the charisma to go with it. i really like her, though.

  • She is so under-rated!!!

  • Leona says 'like' sooo many times! Like a true londoner! Just like me XD

  • No, The X Factor is not the British version of American Idol, American Idol is the American version on Pop Idol, which is British. So were the original ones.. not the Americans ;)..

  • Good range, great control, natural-born singer and beautiful!

  • Most british stars are from London? The biggest british act in the world came from Liverpool.

  • Most of the British stars are from London. Love my London

  • @MerciX1001 but I thought she was from Hackney?

  • @FriendryAsian Yes she is. Hackney is in london.

  • @MerciX1001 ah okay

  • <3 xxxx

  • i have a girl crush on her yes :) because she's amazing.

  • @Jesvel18 nooooooo i have a girl crush on her tooo~ XD

  • i love her accents<3

  • She is so humble it seems and is so sweet. I feel like she confident but definitely not cocky about her success. I definitely look up to her as a musician!

  • She is so humble it seems and sweet. I feel like she confident but definitely not cocky about her success. I definitely look up to her as a musician!

  • She's so genuine!

  • lips sync? oh wait, she's not Justin Bieber

  • leona never fails to give me goosebumps

  • She is amazing live! She absolutely kills this song!

  • who agrees with me that musically she's a mix between toni e whitney.

  • ellen looks like taylor hicks here with blonde hair

  • Leona is so talented and humble and sweet... She's quite underrated.

  • I love Leona's skin color *-* beautiful...love her voice, her eyes, her accent...god, i love her LOL

  • @JL130787 when they said about it being the english version of american idol, they were just comparing the two, there was no sense of 'we had it before you' we used to have pop idol, we now have xfactor which is the most popular show over here in england, which will soon be over in america, so perhaps you will see how good it is.

  • @Lissy255 Yes, X-Factor is huge, singers such as Beyonce, Lady Gaga, and Shakira have all performed on the show and Leona Lewis is one of the most popular musicians worldwide and she came off the X-Factor.

  • @Lissy255 american idol fails the winners have poor management and thats why most get dropped

  • OMG!pause at 0:25....she was so cute back then!

  • how soft is her voice when she is talking aaahh she is an angel <3

  • I HAVE THE SAME NECKLACE! OMG <3

  • Ellen's thinking...I think I'll trade in my Porsche or what ever her name is....

  • What a look at 5:00-5:3 she gives in Ellen. Is it only me to notice? Or am I crazy? She was almost flerting...

  • American Idol is america's version of our Pop Idol which we abondoned ages ago and found a better format.

  • I luv her accent!

  • Joe's better

  • @95n96girl Lol no he isn't. His x factor song didn't go number one and he was the first person in x factor history to win it and not have their cd as christmas number one. Simon Cowel still today says Leona is the best to come out of the x factor EVER!

  • @HoorahMonster Ya I know I'm just in denial because his adorable personality has hypnotized me but lol I love them both so much but you have to admit they're both better than anyone out of American Idol

  • @HoorahMonster sorry if I've already posted this but I don't see it... ya I know but his adorable personality has hypnotised me and I'm a girl who prefers balladeer but I love them both and you have to admit they're both better than all the American Idol people except Carrie Underwood who they are equal to

  • she's sooo beautiful :)

  • X Factor isnt britains version on american idol.. we had Pop Idol before that, and before american idol!.. American Idol is america's version of Britains Pop Idol!

  • im in love with leona lewis <333

  • Compared to some shit ass singer's at lest leona lewis got talent in a mezzo-

    soprano way, and Lewis is also known to sing opera, stating that she practices opera scales every week(Google it) . hehe leona is one of the best in truth.

  • we had pop idol so x factors not americas version of american idol

  • X Factor is TOO Britain's American Idol!!

  • I LOVE LEONA LEWIS. best singer in the world.

    and i love her accent !!!!

  • i love leona <3

  • Leona Lewis future seem to be looking good from Leona Lewis is poised to become the first British woman to top the US pop chart for more than 20 years say's time's online,ew.com and so on,her first CD did pretty nice putting out bleeding love to getting world success,her second CD did not do as well as her first,as of June 2010 Lewis has received 25 awards from 45 nominations,Top New Artist' by Billboard magazine in 2008,but anyway her future look's good if

    everything goe's good 4 her.

  • i love the way she move her head when she sings

  • Many Americans are under the impression that you are not big until you go to America , not true most British bands and singers are known around the world before they go to America.

  • @MyMerlin1

    Yeah, am I right in thinking Kylie isn't actually as huge a celebrity in the US as the UK and Australia? It's just that I don't think I've ever came across her name in the American media.

  • leona is just HOT...

  • wooohoo, hackney, london...she's representing us brits proudly :D

  • i love her hair here.

  • She has pretty skin. <3

  • anybody else think the set of ellen is abit awkward? like the area that people perform, i don't know, it just seems really far away from the audience...

    anyway, i love leona and ellen! <3

  • @xstarxdisneyx I totally agree with u! I think if I was a singer I wouldn't like that set...

  • @victorbragaf yeahh she can't get near to the audience at all! hey ellen, if you (or your team more likely) is reading this, let the performers get nearer to the audience!!! :D

  • She is absolutely amazing!!! Not to mention beautiful, and she seems like she's not letting it go to her head, which I think, is awesome!!!

  • This live version is absolutely incredible. You can hear all the little influxes in her voice and it is still amazing. It doesn't sound flat. She is great!

  • 'britains version of american idol', uhhh it started here? Always trying to take credit for our shows americans!

  • @JL130787 Ellen is an American show though dumbass

  • @JL130787 exactly. it pisses me off. americans are always copying our shows. skins, being human, the office i mean seriously

  • @JL130787 Britian had pop idol first and then came american idol and after it's success simon made x factor. now there's a american x factor too.

  • i love hea she is amazing

  • make me proud to be british!!! go leona!

  • I think you are looking at the best of the best modern singers. An instant classic. We are lucky to have her.

  • SHE ROCKS

  • she sounds the same on the radio and cd as she does live. thats the sign of a good singer

  • I ADORE HER!

  • x factor is simons show.

  • beautiful!

    ^^]

  • x factor is not britain's version of american idol. ¬_¬

  • yeh it is ?

  • no it really isn't. american idol is america's version of pop idol, and x factor isn't a version of anything. it's just kind of different.

  • Comment removed

  • but it's the truth...?

    i don't see why you're being rude about it. :\

  • are u american - cos only an american would think that. Pop Idol was first. Then American Idol.

  • the x factor is like idol except,

    that on the x factor, the judges mentor the contestants unlike Idol. So while she was on The X Factor, Simon mentored Leona

  • and except there are different categories on x factor.

  • @dousethelightss Yeah, it's not. It is essentially the same show though, with a few shallow changes.

  • @ajannjones

    It's Similar To American Idol Only The British Version Was Only Like Two Series And It Was Called Pop Idol

  • @Noifen1990 Actually, Pop Idol was overtaken by Simon Cowell's X Factor which has been going for many years now.

  • @fantastischfish i thinks that vice versa, idol was first, then x factor, then american idol, and now american x factor

  • @liipuu That's exactly what I said. Pop Idol was first, then overtaken by X factor. Read properly.

  • @fantastischfish whoops! haha sorry, i was half asleep. no excuse i know xx

  • @dousethelightss no x factor is what will kick american idol off top spot when the show is taken their next year

  • @dousethelightss American idol is America's version of Xfactor ;)

  • @Chris201076

    ...it isn't. on x factor the judges have their own categories and mentor the contestants. just sayin'

  • @dousethelightss I was trying to funny...nevermind.

  • @Chris201076

    lol okay, i don't get the joke but sorry for misunderstanding.

  • @dousethelightss Just because Leona is more talented than anyone who's ever been on idol, doesnt mean that it's not a version of it. It's singers competing for a record deal! Same as American and Canadian idol!

  • @MissKatRob Yes but we had it first with Pop Idol, therefore American Idol is america's version of it. They just changed the format and the name of Pop Idol to X Factor, basically. Why do you think you got this random brit called Simon Cowell judging on your show? Because he started it over here, and decided to bring it to the states to make more money!!

  • @isuckatguitar100 i didnt know

  • @isuckatguitar100 Who cares? All these shows are the same= garbage. So I blame the Brits for starting this trend of pathetic talent shows to churn out these singers.

  • @MisSeductive oh and america is so good with music? at least talent shows bring out musicians who can ACTUALLY sing.

  • @dousethelightss American Idol is America's version of The X Factor. Or Pop Idol w/e.

  • Comment removed

  • Shes one of those people you love in everyway she can sing and she has such a nice personality

  • Love her dress! She's unreal x

  • Love the live instrumentation with this performance.

  • leona is awesooommmmeeee!!!!!!!!

  • I love her accent :P x

    Shes so talented XxXxx

  • i love that in evry of her apereances she doesnt lipsync

  • yeah she doesnt lip sinc and she is still as amazing

  • Leona Lewis is such a beautiful and gorgeous girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wow..she's pretty and what an amazing performance! =D

  • she is so beautiful, and unique!

  • her eyes are incredibly stunning . . . and sort of smoky, love it

  • She is stunning. I mean, wow.

  • Slight correction : Britain's version of American Idol was Pop Idol and it preceded every other country's version of the show.

    Leona Lewis participated in The X Factor which has a few significant differences to the Idol format, in that acts are split into categories and are assigned one of the panel judges as their mentor, who makes song, choreography and staging choices for them.

  • pop idol was before american idol,

    then pop idol failed, and xfactor came along (:

  • Ellen wants a piece of that, cant blame her!!

  • americans still do ads like that? wtf?? sad.

  • Nice to see someone with a brain on here at last :) Although the "chair" comment was a bit bitchy! lol Just kiddin'. I'm a muscian too, well... was, the band split a while ago due to well... life, I guess. lol. Aye, I'm Irish so we understand normal to a point - he he he. Leona has a great "real" figure! I just hope she stays humble and doesn't become "americanized." We don't need another Britney or Madonna! D:

  • lovin the accent

  • WOW...she's the same age as me : ) that's cool!!!

  • I am a guy and fashion is not my thing... but Leona has good taste in clothes...

  • although she probably had a styleist! :P

  • her voice reminds me of Celine Dion's

  • she's flawless!

  • She must've been so sick of singing this song over and over again at events. lol.

  • Talented and Beautiful!

  • amazing..

  • one of the few singers who can sing live as well as they sound on recordings, people like madonna wouldnt get past the audition round of the x factor

  • she has a gd skin tone

  • Leona Lewis is absolutely gorgeous she is a amazing singer and it is great she as a real body not like singers where they have to be a size zero! and what do you mean she cant hit high note wasn't you listening to her sing!

  • loads of artists dont write their own music lol, what difference does it make anyway? Elvis presley didnt write any of his songs and he was huge. She can sing very very well and she is beautiful in looks and as a person. She has it all

  • You are talking nonsense. She has a fantastic voice, it's nothing wrong with her body, she is absolutely gorgeous, she has her own style, and she does write own music!

    You are just stupid and should not bee allowed to be around other human beings!

  • she's the best example of the now artists in the pop world, only humble... she'll be up there with alicia keys and stevie wonder in terms of being a package artist (though i don't know if she plays any instrument, but that doesn't really matter much if she's got people to do it for her)...

  • You're right. She does play some instrument. She plays the piano and the guitar.

  • seriously, she is only just began. as artists progress they get to have their own input once they are established and they have a following.

    eg. look at rhiana, she started off with pop/ R&B/ dance stuff. but now she is as diverse as ever, doing more grown up stuff and she seems to be leaning slightly towards rock / indie music. she gone to the dark side. lol. but seriously, theres is no need to slash a promising talent.

  • fuckin handsomejustin!!!

  • tit

  • Just look how far this girl has come and she deserves every minute of it! Super singer, super star!

  • only artist who never lip sync!!!!! luv her!!!
