This is kind of weird, but I liked Leona more when only the UK knew about her. I'm American, but I knew about her early because I am very up there when it comes to entertainment...I watch the X-Factor. It's annoying listening to this hype about her in the US. It's like....Yo, I've known about her for ages, I don't need you to tell me how great she is. It gets really annoying after awhile. I don't mind conformism, but I like things more when they're less mainstream.
