I wouldn't say Leona is shy anymore, I think she just lacks a bit of confidence.

I reckon Leona should open for a big superstar (like Kelly) to get her ready for her own tour.

i agree,that would definetly prepare her for her own tour.
i disagree with the article though.Leona doesnt lack confidence at all IMO.she is shy,thats obvious from her interviews but on stage shes completely different.i dont think Simon's ever actually seen her live at a concert?she dances and she gets the crowd to sing along.

I don't think Simon will ever let her be a supporting act. He probably knows putting her on her own tour will bring him in a brick load of money.

Thats the thing with performers in general that a lot of people don't get. Most performers are the same, I can be the shyest of people when I am with people I dont know... and I can be quiet and reserved. But give me a new character and make me perform, and I am the most confident person on stage. Its the same with singing, you take on a character and perform... you are not yourself.

I had a problem when teaching or giving presentations, I would get really nervous because I was myself, so from now on I play a character when doing a lesson and I don't get nervous. I think unless naturally confident, all performers do this.

Is it true the video is out this week? :D

She performed at the Olympics in front of milllions..............the real issue is making sure she has enough material (i.e. a second album) to choose her repertoire from. Those who go on tour after one album need lots of 'padding'.

First time in here! As you know i am a huge Leona supporter! And i Love her to bits! Her new song is stunning! when i was first listening through the album it really stood out, along with homeless and Angel

I'm still waiting for this darn I Will Be video! lol

I am not that anticioant because i listen to the song about 3 times a day, because all i ever play is my Leona Lewis album, and i am not really into videos, just the music and vocals!

I'm so happy IWB is being released,that and Here I Am are my 2 favs off the album.
