Leona Louise Lewis (born 3 April 1985 in London) is an English pop/R&B singer and songwriter. She was discovered on the reality television show The X Factor and went on to win the third series in 2006, where she was the first female to win the show. The prize she received was a £1 million contract to Simon Cowell's record label, Syco Music. Her debut single in the United Kingdom, "A Moment Like This", broke a world record after it was downloaded over 50,000 times within thirty minutes of its release.
Her second single, "Bleeding Love", was the biggest-selling single of 2007 in her home country, topped over thirty international singles charts including the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Mexico, the Republic of Ireland, France, Italy, Germany and Russia, and has since become the biggest selling single of the twenty-first century by a female, propelling Lewis to international fame.
Her debut album, Spirit, was released throughout Europe in 2007 and became the fastest-selling debut album ever in both the United Kingdom and Ireland.Released in North America in 2008, Spirit debuted at number one on the United States' Billboard 200 album chart, making Lewis the first British solo artist to top the chart with a debut album.
Her fifth UK single which is a cover of Snow Patrol song "Run", became the fastest selling digital-only release of all time, after it sold 69,244 in just two days. By the end of the first week, download sales had reached 131,593, some eight thousand below the first week sales of "A Moment Like This". Lewis reached number one in both Ireland and the UK purely from downloads of the song.
Leona Lewis was born in the London Borough of Islington, to parents Aural Josiah "Joe" Lewis, an English youth worker of Afro-Caribbean Guyanese descent, and Maria Lewis, a Welsh social worker of Italian/Irish descent. At the age of five, she attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School, and later the Italia Conti Academy and the BRIT School. There she learned guitar and piano and also worked hard to write her own songs in order to be taken seriously as an accomplished musician.
She wrote her first song at the age of twelve, and won a number of talent competitions. After leaving school, Lewis took a number of jobs to pay to get into a recording studio, including waitressing and several receptionist jobs. Lewis also has said her biggest idol as a singer growing up was the African-American soprano Leontyne Price.
She wrote, recorded and produced a number of songs including two demo albums, Twilight and Best Kept Secret. When she was fifteen years old, she recorded a version of Minnie Riperton's "Lovin' You" with music producer Marley J. Wills, who commented that "Leona could hit the notes and I think she did it better than the original." Unable to secure a contract, Lewis considered placing her music career on hold to attend university, before her boyfriend persuaded her to enter The X Factor. She has been nominated for three Grammy Awards.
