Leona Lewis Tickets – Leona Lewis Tickets for UK Concert
Leona Louise Lewis (born 3 April 1985) is an English pop and R&B singer–songwriter. Lewis rose to fame in 2006 as the winner of the third series of the British television series The X Factor.
Lewis has become a multi-platinum selling artist and three times Grammy Award nominee. She has released two albums to date, Spirit and Echo, in 2007 and 2009 respectively. Spirit became the fastest-selling debut album and the biggest seller of 2007 in both the UK and Ireland, and made Lewis the first British solo artist to top the Billboard 200 with a debut album. Her second album, Echo, was released in November 2009.
Lewis’s debut single “A Moment Like This” became the fastest selling UK single after being downloaded over 50,000 times within thirty minutes of its release. Her second single, “Bleeding Love”, reached number one positions in over thirty singles charts around the world. In November 2008 she set a record in the UK for the fastest selling download-only release with her cover version of the Snow Patrol song “Run” which sold 69,244 copies in two days. In November 2009, the first sets of dates for her 2010 debut world tour were announced. Lewis has sold over 6.5 million albums worldwide.
Lewis was born in the London Borough of Islington, to Aural Josiah “Joe” Lewis of Guyanese descent and Maria Lewis of Welsh descent. She initially trained in opera, but went on to singing jazz and blues, eventually leading to popular music, citing Minnie Ripperton, Eva Cassidy and Stevie Wonder as her main influences. After leaving the School at 17, she took a number of jobs to fund studio time, recording a demo album called Twilight. The album, comprised almost exclusively of her own compositions, was recorded under Spiral Music, a production company based in Fulham. Other demos were recorded under license from UEG entertainment, later included on an album called Best Kept Secret. However, none of Lewis’s demos were released and she considered taking a hiatus from her music career to attend university until her boyfriend persuaded her to enter The X Factor which subsequently severed her connections with UEG.
Lewis lives in Hackney with her boyfriend Lou Al-Chamaa, an electrician, whom she has known since she was approximately ten years old. She has a tattoo of Hebrew letters on her left wrist, symbolising her relationship with Al-Chamaa. A vegetarian since she was 12, Lewis won PETA’s Sexiest Vegetarian along with Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis in 2008, and again in 2009 with actor Scott Maslen. She also was named PETA’s Person of the Year for 2008. Lewis is a supporter of the World Society for the Protection of Animals.
At a book “Signing for Dreams” on 14 October 2009 at the Piccadilly branch of Waterstone’s book store in central London. She later released a statement, saying “Thank you so much for your support, it is truly overwhelming. Yesterday was a horrible shock and left me extremely hurt and upset. I’m very sorry to those I wasn’t able to meet at the signing. Thank you again for all of the lovely messages. Love you all. Kowalczyk was subsequently sectioned under the Mental Health Act. He is charged with common assault, for which he was due to appear before City of Westminster magistrates on 26 October 2009. The case was adjourned until 23 November as Kowalczyk was “not fit to attend court”. It was reported that he had a history of health problems and may have attacked Lewis due to jealousy, as he had attempted to enter The X Factor but was rejected by producers.
Leona Lewis has announced her first ever arena tour to UK, hot on the heels of her one-off gig at London’s Hackney Empire. The tour starts from 28 May, 2010 at Sheffield and ends at 01 July, 2010 at Odyssey Arena. Be there at time and rock yourself.
