Since blazing onto the scene six years ago, Leona Lewis has become just as synomous with “talented” as she has “quiet”. Yet, the X Factor graduate turns the volume all the way up in this stunning new shoot for YOU magazine.
The feature forms the latest promo stop for the singer in the push for her third LP ‘Glassheart’, which debuted at #4 on the Official UK Album Chart in October. ‘Lovebird’, the second single to be lifted from the set, is released today.
Entirely aware of her “nice” reputation, the 27 year old addresses it her interview with the publication.
Peep an except and another stunning snap after the jump…
On being perceived as quiet:
“I think a lot of people in this industry did kind of dismiss me because they thought I was too nice. People would say, “Oh my God, why are you so polite, why don’t you do anything interesting or scandalous like take drugs?” It’s weird in the music industry because you are damned if you do the bad stuff and damned if you don’t.”

Do you agree with Leona?
