Leona Lewis is looking forward to another big Christmas after she was invited by Westminster officials to turn on the shopping mecca’s famous festive lights.

The X Factor 2006 winner - who shot to the top of the UK charts this week with “Bleeding Love”, her second No. 1 - will be given the honour next month, it was announced last night. The special ceremony, which will also see Leona perform tracks from her debut album, will take place on November 7th.
