Adele has had a great start to her career with a lot of backing but im sorry i havnt seen any charisma , she openely admits she loves leona's voice. Leona can sing and nobody can take that away from her no matter how stupid you want to make your comments, she doesnt want to be known as a stripper like some mentioned rh (magazines do lie, they take comments out of context just like this column about leona) above, If you new leonas background at all you would know that she as not just entered a show and won it, she as always be into music and arts. she knows her music, it may not ne your style but so what. When i listen to the radio in my car rh's arse doesnt appear to me but good singing does. sex sells records not talent, the charts show that. Leona is answering a question and you dont like the answer so what.
