Leona Lewis - From X-Factor To A Superstar

It is 5:00 am in 2024 and I'm here appreciating this golden voice and leona's journey as if it is my first time watching these brilliant performances. Been a huge fan since 2008 and I grow to appreciate this human being more and more. Golden and angelic!

Sweet. Beautiful. Talented. Down to earth. Well deserved Winner of the X-Factor!

She's like a fairy floating around and blessing people with her voice. She's graceful.

[@keithgray1039]

All these years later she is still the best singer to date, she is an Angel

[@Blondey961]

IT IS SO FREAKING RARE to have someone so stunning(,I mean look at her,she is by far the most beautiful girl i've ever seen),drop dead gorgeous,SO EXTREMELY TALANTED,and at the same time so sweet,kind and humble.She really does have the whole package.She doesn't need to take her clothes off on stage and act prooctivately like so many artists do today in order to get noticed.FANTASTIC ROLE MODEL,I love her,she really is unique. She is amazinggg

Exactly & it's a shame trollups like Miley felt a need to be obscene. I'm sure that was due to the MK Ultra that they did to you. Most Disney stars are abused sexually & programmed. Thank God she had a normal upbringing.

She is Simon's biggest jackpot ever .

[@charlielittle6596]

SING TORRES Leona is the only one with actual super star qualities. She fits well next to the Mariah’s and Beyoncé’s. The others are embarrassing

[@iyethtaclas2559]

I thot 1 direction

[@alvaroakatico9188]

Why is it that those who sign up with Simon Cowell don’t last long. They leave for greener pastures I guess.

[@paidamoyocynthiamukanwa853]

Regardless of her being a good singer she was down to earth..a very humbled young lady..loved her..well done leona

[@Yuena]

I been listening to Leona for almost a decade but I only recently found out that she was discovered from The X Factor. I was so shocked that she wasn't discovered on her own. She's simply amazing with the most humble personality. I LOVE her. No one can touch her. I hope she can pour out more singles like she did when she first came out.

[@moulosify]

Leona is a national treasure!! I think Summertime was her breakthrough moment, blew everyone away. Leona still conducts herself just as admirably all these years later, it is so nice when fame and fortune doesn't change somebody for the worse.

[@IrishEddie317]

I think you're right. She came out of her shell and she absolutely NAILED that song!

[@thelionking807]

Simon Cowell said to her ( the x factor the band) that he knew they found someone special when she sang summertime. You were so right

[@racinginfo8418]

When you think of the X Factor, you instantly think of Leona. She made the show what it was. There was no one anywhere near as talented as her before her, and she took the show to a whole new level.

[@Kat.Evangeline14]

Dalton was pretty amazing. I also love James Author & Louisa.

[@chloegould6905]

She's the reason I started singing and I can relate to her so much with my shyness. In my opinion, she always sings every song exceptionally well but Summertime and Over the Rainbow are her best ones. Always gives me goosebumps and makes me emotional as I remember seeing her on the TV too and saw her on her journey. 😍😭

[@dragonfly5665q]

i love her shy and sweet personality. she is really down to earth which makes her even more attractive

[@TheSanveana]

The thing with Leona is not only the fact she got a beautiful voice, i believe her (vocal) strength is the fact she uses her voice as an instrument to to share what's living inside her heart.

[@turbonetic777]

I'm sooo in love with her vibrato!!! Such an AMAZING Vocalist and I Love how she is so humble and really thankful!

[@odionsmailbox]

I really love Leona in this video. She must be my second favorite singer with such a heart-melting voice. And all of her performances actually made me smile. Just perfect.

[@ilyanaumaira8638]

Without autotune. And sounds THE BEST

[@odionsmailboxable]

Yeah.

[@QuHrrr]

Blew me away when she sang both "summertime" and "cheeky cheetah" Hands down the best renditions of these songs I've ever heard! Bravo 👏🏽🌹

[@rogerrabbit3524]

She is very talented and for "Simon" to agree that's a miracle.. PS, Go get them Leona...

[@nadia1994ization]

Perfect hair, perfect skin, amazing voice, beautiful eyes she won the genetic lottery and now she won the lottery itself

[@evil8569]

She didnt win the lottery, she earned it

[@thelionking807]

She was born with that voice.

[@grazzellian]

Week after week after week, she nailed it. She was truly flawless. So talented, so beautiful. The audience were fantastic.

[@MalphasMikaelson]

The Duchess of Muanenguba I personally think Matt is the best contestant X Factor has seen, purely from a standpoint of that he can literally sing anything. He sang some very different music, but always nailed it. But ofcourse Leona has the better voice and she had the better career.

[@msdirectplayer]

Noctis Caelum I absolutely agree with you!

[@thetruththerhymeandthereas8519]

+Noctis Caelum & msdirectplayer I absolutely disagree with you both! --- Leona is versatile enough, but It's not about what you can sing, it's about how good you can sing. Matt didn't nail it week after week, like The Duchess of Muanenguba said, and get a complete clean sweep from all the judges. He didn't get standing ovations that went on for ever, and he didn't create the buzz among record labels producers, critics, fellow artists, and lovers of the best in musical talent like this girl did. And it wasn't him that actually saved the show from being axed - period !!!

[@MalphasMikaelson]

+TheTruthTheRhyme AndTheReason Every liveshow you couldn't really hear what the judges said. And Leona got the applause because of the typical great voice with high notes. Like, there s a diff between nailing every song week after week. And having certain dull performances filled with showboating cause you have the voice. Her first couple weeks were nothing special imo. And two of the judges had some criticism. Her performance of "The first cut is the deepest." imo was very dull, with abit of showboating later on in the song. Just because you have a great voice, doesn't mean you're nailing the song.

[@thetruththerhymeandthereas8519]

+Noctis Caelum What do you mean you couldn't really hear what the Judges said, You could hear that they thought she was nailing it week after week! And even though there was some criticism in the first performance mostly from Louis, about over-singing (which I admit she went overboard with the yeah, yeah, yeah's), as Simon said, nerves were kicking in as it was the first time she had sung before an audience like that, and she was just starting to learn her craft. Point is overall it was still a good performance and the best of the night. And audiences don't give applause just because of high notes. She got the applause because her tone is superb, she has her own unique style with inflections on the end of notes that add a feminine touch to her vocal, her control of vibrato is sublime, and she's got a pair of pipes on her that can belt out a note but with that smooth tone (although she was a bit more pitchy in the beginning - like I said, learning her craft, finding her vocal range). As I said her first one wasn't as polished as should've been and I agree that the first 2 weren't as good as the others, but they were still good. NONE OF HER PERFORMANCES WERE DULL,....... AND AS FOR SHOWBOATING.....YOU MAD BRO???? Were you not paying attention to how humble this girl was. Do you really think someone like that is even capable of showboating ?????? So let's keep score then. How many weeks Did Matt Cardel get clean sweeps from the judges?

[@SweetBriella]

She's my idol! I listen to her songs everyday. She's so inspirational. :D

[@susiecollier6801]

I totally agree with Simon about the appealing nature of Leona's personality: much better to be shy and doubting of one's talents than overconfident and arrogant.

[@troyc333]

She is just amazing in so many ways.

The best singer of all time from X factor to AGT. My unbiased opinion - Unbelievable vocals even to this day. I have heard so much talent in the years; that i stick with this comment.

[@aspenrebel]

Now I see why her Boss said that when he saw her sing in the first Live Show (i.e. this here) he knew she was not coming back to work. So he put an Ad in to hire a new receptionist. From this first performance, it is clear that she was going to win.

[@annabananna789]
