It's so good to see her. Bleeding Love and Better in Time were my two favorite songs from her. Her voice is so beautiful. She has such a sweet heart and personality. Can't believe she's a mom now but I know she's an amazing one.

1:19 Leona wasn’t just on the show she WON her season and had a HUGE record selling career after but I love how Jennifer didn’t win but also went on to have major success too 🙏🏾✨

[@OsAbliNgin911]

There is a big difference about how they got their success though. Jennifer Hudson sacrificed a family memeber for fame and forturne. Leona Lewis did not. In fact you could argue Leona Lewis did not sell out or push the illuminati agenda enough to be a global megastar like Adele. She making her money in the entertainment industry in peace without stressing or being too greedy.

@@user-yz1lb3cm7z I am not joking. Jennifer Hudson sacrificed her family member. That was when Trump allowed her to stay at his hotel free, and a lot of people had sympathy for her. Then after that incident her career blow up. That is not a coincidence.

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

@@girlies77 They are the deceivers, with minds which been deceived. They are the servers of the baphomet, from whom they get their paycheck. They give up their souls, once they signed the contract. They are in a cult, which praises DEATH. They are in a cult, members of the masonry. They call themselves "free"masons, yet they`re far from being free. They are slaves to the darkness, light they do not like. Their deeds are evil, more evil then the naive souls assume. They are "loved" by this world, yet they hate even themselves. They must make sure that they lie, cause telling the truth, gets them killed. They shall lose their fame, and their riches shall be taken, if they dare to expose whom`s slaves they "had to" become. They know where they go, after their lives on earth came to the end. They know where they go, because of the road which they chose to walk on. They know the truth, yet the repenting is hard, how they give up their fame, to be loved by you all? They know that you`ll hate them, once you know what they`re done. They know that you`ll expose them, once the truth is known. They know that you can go there, where they once dwelled. They know that you can be forgiven, that`s why they banned the bible. They must keep you wicked, just to not be alone in hell. They are our enemies, they make us hate each other. They praise being wicked. They live and keep us in the “coma” state. They are not flesh and blood, but we are. Their goal is to drag you into hellfire with them. They blood sacrifice your kind, you children and you allow them, having no caring in the world nor knowledge, just a naive soul forever in bondage.

Leona Lewis to this day was my all-time favourite performance on x factor when she sang 'run' oh my god, what a performance, what a voice 😍👌👏👏👏

[@alcrowder7097]

Can not listen to this woman sing "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" without feeling it all in my soul. Her rendition of it is absolute perfection. I will never understand how her natural speaking voice translates into the soul and pure grit in that performance.

[@alinamashi]

This performance of her is also my all time favorite! It touched my soul in such deep and pure way. If love was a song, it would be exactly this one! I love Leona for million reasons!

[@BoyNextGen]

Very underrated singer, love her albums!

[@obibraxton2232]

Great seeing Leona’s parents she looks like a combination of them both haven’t seen them in years since she won X Factor.
