Leona Lewis & Alexandra Burke Bring the Heat To ‘Michael Jackson Forever’

Published: Sunday 9th Oct 2011 by Rashad

X Factor alums Leona Lewis and Alexandra Burke were both on hand at last night’s tribute to the King of Pop Michael Jackson.  Performing ‘I’ll Be There’ and ‘Who’s Loving You’ respectively, the British beauties belted through their numbers – quickly becoming fan favorites.

Joining divas Beyonce and Christina Aguilera at the star studded event, find out how they fared after the jump:

You have to give kudos to Jigglypuff Leona for delivering a nearly flawless performance.  Vocals on point!  However,  if only Dr. Conrad Murray knew of the sedative powers of her vocals, he’d stop carelessly prescribing Propofol to people and suggest they get a copy of “Spirit” or watch her live performances.

Your thoughts?

    LEONA LEWIS WAS SOOOO BORING I thought i was gonna die…not just fall asleep.
    ALEXANDRIA did pretty GOOD tho!

    …wow you made a Conrad Murray joke in a post about the concert honoring the man he helped kill.

    You’re such a pathetic sad little q****.

    … Hmmm just something about alexandra, i dont like. Maybe the way she tries to come across as a ‘performer’ when really shes not done that much to hold a title, she just needs to lay off the ‘british beyonce’ thing cus shes not and will never be as for leona…. Zzzzzzzzzz nice vocals zzzzzzzzzzz

    Why did Jigglypuff sang I’ll Be There on a lower key?! OMG thats not so “old Mariah”.

    A pathetic sad little q**** is what SAM has been for a long time now. First he disrespects Janet on the messy post he threw out there a couple back and caught like 700 comment off of it, and now he disrespects Michael? I say all of the Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson fans boycott this site, cause at the end of the day SAM gets paid for our participation on the hateful site, so lets hit him where it hurts and show him that his nonsense & ignorant statements and rants will not be tolerated by us. BOYCOTT SAM AND THATGRAPEJUICE ALLTOGETHER.

    Alexandra Burke is an amazing vocalist. one of the best in the world right now. SO SO UNDERRATED because she should always sing these soulful songs, forget pop songs ala rihanna & co!

    Alexandra Burke will snatch wigs all over the world soon.

  7. Truthteller October 9, 2011

    And she’s such a better singer than Beyoncé!

  8. TruthTeller(the real one) October 10, 2011

    @TRUTHTELLER

    What does “jiggly puff” leona mean? lol. Anyways I thought Leona sang wonderfully. There was no gimmicks, over singing, or showy costumes. I like Alexandra Burke but I thought she screamed a little too much. Other than that her voice is amazingly powerful and she’s very soulful. She did okay.

  10. SHESDUMB, MS DUMB IF YA STUPID October 10, 2011

    JANET ISNT APART OF IT, THEREFORE THIS IS AN ILLEGITIMATE SHOW FULL OF FLOPS

  11. SHESDUMB, MS DUMB IF YA STUPID October 10, 2011

Mariah them all didn’t do s*** but you didint say she boring leona lewis atleast walks look at riri she sounds bad and does nothing Yall are delusional run with what the paps say they could tell you That you are a alien you would believe them

  14. Gaz October 10, 2011

    was there that night and Alex was amazing….swapping from a power ballad like that to up-tempo the next minute, one of the best of the night. Leona was a bit boring but no doubt she can sang!!!

  15. Theman October 10, 2011

    Mariah had the best version of anybody. Alexandra and Leona can both blow.

  16. JohnVidal October 10, 2011

    Really can´t believe how boring Leona Lewis is. I mean, she can sing but not just her personality (I don´t know her), her voice is boring. No wonder she didn´t make it ala the greatest voices

  17. Scott October 10, 2011

    The concert was badly organised but the tribute acts all gave 100 percent. Easily the best acts were Yolanda Adams, Christina and Alexandra. Where is Alexandras Scream performance just for Brayanric who is chatting rubbish that Alexandra is not a performer that performance snatched wigs and lacefronts.

  18. TIMMI October 10, 2011

    @XADAX

    “OMG thats not so “old Mariah”.”

    And who said she wanted to be “old Mariah”? Why would she want to be? Why would she want to imitate someone else? Why would she want to sing the song in the same version as someone else’s?

    So that you could come here and instead write that she tries to be Mariah? O__o

  19. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) October 10, 2011

    I really didn’t bother watching Leona’s performances, but I’ll TRY to do so later.Alexandra delivered, though.She did great.

    Now, GOOD QUALITY FULL VERSION OF CHRISTINA AGUILERA’S ‘DIRTY DIANA’ PERFORMANCE!!!

    Alexandra is a beast. After that? Leona Who?

  21. Davep October 10, 2011

    I think that Alexandra is definitely an Alexander.

    Its a man for sure.

  22. PEGGY HYLTON October 10, 2011

    ALEXANDRA SOUNDED BETTER THAN LEONA…

  23. Scott October 10, 2011

    RCA need to get there act together with Alexandra and launch her internationally the girl will slay.

  24. antertain October 10, 2011

    Where has Leona’s high notes gone?
    Love when she goes all falsetto.

    Alexandra has plenty of soul and definately needs to showcase that side more.
    She a performer as well so i wouldn’t take that side away.

    POOF be gone! the navy have been saying that for the longest time lmao

  26. Gaz October 10, 2011

    I agree that Alexandra needs to show off her voice more in the future, certainly with the soulful stuff she did here….it worked brilliantly. Being there live, i’ll admit that Leona can sign…her stranger in Moscow was one of the best vocal deliveries of the night but she needs to work harder in bringing a personality to it…she’s a bit dull. Even Yolanda and Glady’s brought it to their simple performances…

  27. YOOSONDALOOSE October 10, 2011

    Leona is amazing, she rocked that! Really good!

  28. who cares October 10, 2011

    don’t no why everyone murks leona lewis shes gotta a better voice then alot of people and so what if shes boring shes making money than most of us….. and why you slewing Micheal jackson on a tribute that was meant for him sick f****
