Leona's hit 5 million likes on facebook and she made a video to celebrate: www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10153028908607619So cute. Also, she sounds so much better! She had tonsilitis & then laryngitis during her promotional tour for the Christmas album, so glad to hear she's back in full health! She's back in the studio in a week or two for the album, so cannot wait!

Leona on the red carpet of black women in music event by essence magazine: Stunning! She was also interviewed by some people, including perez@ Hopefully we'll get some info from that. Plus Clive's pre-grammy party is this weekend I think, so hopefully Leona will be in attendance and maybe even perform? (it's honoring whitney this year).

i can't believe how short this girl's career was after BL. I feel like she was marketed way to conservatively and lacked that edge that gives you pop spins and buzz. she needs to leak a sex tape or go to rehab or something

She was promoted like the girl the next , the girl working in Starbucks . She should have been the sexy diva , with some attitude . Run should have been a massive hit in US as it was elsewhere , but they deliberately added it to the deluxe version of the album to get more sales , but in the process missing out on a huge hit single .

I think the problem was that they were trying to market her as the girl next door, national sweetheart type thing like Kelly Clarkson was after she won AI in 2002 but no one in the US knew her from the show. So she just came off hella boring and stiff.
She just needs better material and to pick a lane because the genre for heavily R&B influenced pop music that she was making in 2006 is dead and gone at this point with no survivors. Nicole Scherzinger, Danity Kane, Paula Deanda, Jordin Sparks, etc. can all attest to that.

Leona's was another clear example of label murdering a career with potential. It was obvious that after BIT she needed to switch it up. Her Avril ballad was the worst career move ever. The video had her horrible acting that put the nail in the coffin. Label had her collaboration with Akon that switched the tempo and had a cute video; it was recorded for the US album but was left unreleased. Run could've been a great 4th single after Forgive Me, and a good return to a ballad but of course after I Will Be flopping that was a no-go. Horrible!!! Then well Happy was not a happy choice either Maybe her Oasis cover could've been better but at that point she needed a non ballad to show she was not a one-trick pony (no pun intended lol) I think Collide could've been a hit for her but the situation was so messy with Avicii, curiously now a big act. I didn't know much about Glassheart flopping that bad. I don't think it was ever promoted in the US (?) did it have any UK hit?? Looking forward to a comeback though. She's a talented singer!

Is the movie getting a Usa release? and when is the estimated release date of the album? I think so. It's released in the UK June 13th or 16th (can't remember which date). No release date for the album yet.

Leon ahad a Q&A session on twitter and didn't give much information. There's no news about the lead single yet, but she will update us when there is. She's in the studio still and will update us about it.
She also said that they'll be releasing a deluxe version of Christmas, With Love so cannot wait for that.

Leona's birthday today <3 Based on twitter info from people's she's worked with, it looks like they are going to be releasing the album sometime later this year! Also, the movie she's involved in has had some positive comments from the press screening, cannot wait for the trailer!

Leona looks and sounds great <3 Total cheese fest but Brits like that every now and again. I think it's going to do well in the UK at least. :)

A reliable source has said that Leona will be singing the National Anthem and Abide with me at the FA cup final on May 17th! ohmy.gif Cannot wait!
Also, she's been working with Goonrock recently, who's done some of LMFAO's stuff (Party rock anthem/Sexy and I know it).
P.S: FA cup final is a big football event watched by millions in the UK and all over the world!

Leona was at a charity event in Washington for a Down Syndrome charity. Looked great <3 She also sang at the event and there were a few snippets of "Bleeding Love". Here's one of the snippets - http://instagram.com/p/nuSXT-ISEe # Also, she did a private opening on a Mall in Germany and performed. A Leona fan did some investigative work and found out her setlist Really want to hear her cover of "Hotel California" and would be nice to hear her version of Pharrel's "Happy". Also, "Beer" is a potentially new song!!! Really need more videos of the night to be shown. There was a really low quality clip of "Run" and she sounded great. She also did Pharrel's "Happy" at the charity event and I hope we get more videos from both events. <3

I would have LOVED to see her perform "Glassheart"
I don't care whether or not EDM is over, it should still be on the US version of the album...
(and be the lead single.)

I find it funny that she performed Pharrell's happy "Happy" instead of her sad "Happy"

Some footage from her gig in Germany
She sounds great and at the end of "Bleeding Love" she goes up to a G5 I believe, something she's never done before! :o
