Clive Davis, the chief of J Records (part of Sony BMG) in the US home to Alicia Keys and Whitney Houston among others has told Simon he wants to make Leona Lewis with the amazing voice a huge star in the united states.
Simon said, “Leona has a commitment to go and see Clive. It’s an amazing opportunity. I believe she’ll be up there with Mariah and Whitney. It’s a fairytale ending.”
Which means we could be seeing lovely Le, like Mariah, linking up with the likes of Pharrell Williams and Snoop Dogg in future.
After scooping 60% of the votes and winning a £1million record deal during Saturday’s final, Leona has since admitted she came close to jacking a singing career in all together.
“I was so down at getting nowhere that I was about to give it all up and then I had one more chance – the X Factor audition,” she said.
“Now look at what there is for me, it’s almost too much to take in. I wanna do this for the rest of my life.”

leona really has what it takes to go to the states. i’m a 15 year old girl who aspires to be a singer but my confidence was shaken to audition for x-factor as soon as i’m 16 and leaona’s victory on the x-facor made me realize that i can do it if i put my heart to it. i’m greaful the public voted her to be a winner. thanks leona you have been such a source of motivation. thank you. XxX
i have never heard someone so talented as leona,
and cannot wait for her cd to be released…
well done leona and i wish you well
shes amazingg! i love singing and hope to go on the x factor but i know i would never be as good as her.
Raw talent with great range that touches people in places that other singers don’t. I would love to hear her sing with Lionel Richie someday. She will go as far as she wants to go, the sky is the limit for this young lady. Looking forward to an American tour.
