Her video for “I Got You” is expected to premiere any day now, so make sure to watch out for that. Singing the official song for Avatar proved to be very successful for Leona Lewis, as it is the second grossing movie of all time, after Titanic.

An eyewitness says: "Two men brandishing guns jumped out of their car, right next to Leona's.”

"Armed cops, who had been in hot pursuit, captured them. But in the chaos bystanders were also sent flying.”

"Leona had been locked in her car by her security team and had to watch as her manager Nicola Carson was thrown on to the floor."

Just a few months ago, Leona was attacked by a fan, we hope that she won’t be too shaken up after another dangerous encounter.

Leona Lewis and Robbie Williams Collaboration

The collaboration is set to take place at the same time as Leona’s arena tour, which means that Robbie Williams might also show up at some of her concerts.

Simon Cowell is said to have pushed for this collaboration as he hopes that Robbie Williams will agree to become one of the judges of the UK X-Factor.

Leona Lewis - NRJ Music Tour Performances

A week ago, Leona Lewis performed her two hit singles "Better In Time" and "Bleeding Love" at the NRJ Music Tour in France. Her performance was excellent,however "Better In Time" isn't a very exciting song. "Bleeding Love" has been over played the same way as Rihanna's "Umbrella" last year. We all know she can sing and perform, but she should come up with more, or perhaps it's even the time for her to go on tour. Afterall, she is known worldwide by now.

Leona Lewis - In Line For James Bond Theme Song?

Beyonce and Amy Winehouse, better watch out, someone else is going for James Bond's upcoming theme song for "Quantum of Solace".

Simon Cowell is urging the film’s producers to select Leona Lewis for the new movie. Simon is convinced that she would be ideal for the theme because she has experienced massive success in both the UK and the States.

Originally, I think that Amy would have been best suited, however she doesn't seem to be capable of creating new music at the moment. So between Beyonce and Leona I'd say Beyonce.

What do you think, who would be better suited Amy, Beyonce, or Leona?
