Leona Lewis citáty

Leona Louise Lewis je britská zpěvačka a autorka hudebních textů, které v cestě k profesionální pěvecké kariéře pomohlo vítězství ve třetí sérii britské verze pěvecké soutěže The X Factor z roku 2006.

Předtím pracovala jako recepční. V průběhu soutěže byla porotci hodnocena velmi příznivě. U písně Summertime Simon Cowell pronesl, že je absolutně nejlepší soutěžící napříč všemi soutěži takového typu, kterého kdy slyšel; Sharon Osborneová zase chválila mimo jiné její rozsah, osobnost a „nedostatek uvědomění si toho, jak moc je ve skutečnosti dobrá“. Leona má rozsah 3,3 oktávy .

Ihned po jejím vítězství, kdy ve finále porazila Raye Quinna z Liverpoolu, vydala singl Moment Like This, který se stal nejstahovanější písní na internetu . Její hit Bleeding Love z alba Spirit byl nejprodávanější singl roku 2008 a pronikl do všech světových hitparád a byl číslo 1 ve více než 30 zemích světa a pár týdnů dokonce vedla v prestižní hitparádě Billboard Hot 100, se kterým se stala první britskou zpěvačkou, která vedla USA žebříčku na prvním místě po dvaceti letech. Singlu Bleeding love se prodalo více než 9 milionů kusů po světě a stal se tak pátým nejprodávanějším singlem desetiletí. S jejím novým singlem Forgive Me jí pomohl světoznámý producent a zpěvák Akon, který píseň produkoval. Leona Lewis se vrátila do další řady britské soutěže X Factor, kde vystoupila jako host s písní Run, která se v Británii vyšplhala na 1. místo žebříčků. 10. listopadu 2008 vyhrála cenu World Music Award v kategorii nejlepší popová zpěvačka a též nejlepší nový počin .

Leona Lewis: Citáty anglicky

“I may not be loud but that doesn't mean I'm not strong within myself. My mum and dad instilled in me to stand up for what I believe in – and I do.”

Now magazine, July 2008

“I am vegetarian, so I don't have clothes, shoes or bags made from leather or suede or any animal products. Shoes are hard to find. These are fake Uggs. And I've got a pair of vintage boots, which are PVC.”

“Whatever happens to me from now on, I can't ever imagine wanting to distance myself from The X Factor, or having a bad word to say about it, because the show opened doors for me that had never opened before.”

Daily Mail, October 2007

“I'm not a loud, extravagant person; I'm never going to be that and, to be honest, I don't want to be like that. I don't show off or boast, and it's pointless to think I'm going to be any different.”

“You have to have the courage to stand up for what you believe in – no matter how hard it is – as your beliefs make you who you are amid all the celeb madness. I'm a vegetarian and never wear leather or use products tested on animals. When I was just starting out I'd get a gazillion freebies thrown at me, so it was hard to know what contained what. Now, I've made sure that before I get to a photoshoot people know my stance on that.”

“[People] would ask me, "what do you want to be when you're older?" and I'd be like, "a singer", and they'd be like, "what do you really want to be?" and I'd be like, "oh, I really want to be a singer."”

NRJ Radio, October 2007

“Those women are the true divas. They're amazing performers, whom I've listened to for years. These are the people who've inspired me to sing, so it's flattering that I'm being compared to them. But I have a lot of hard work to do first.”

Regarding comparisons to Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston

“My friends are the ones I've had since primary school. They're really cool and such a good bunch of people. They came to every one of my gigs before all of this happened, you know; they were there in the smoky pubs, wherever.”

“No one is "the next" anyone, especially if that person is still here, doing their thing, as she [Mariah] clearly is. The comparisons people have made to me are so flattering, but I think it's insensitive to the people I'm compared to.”
