Following the release of much talked about single Run, Leona Lewis looks set to storm into the number slot on Sunday leaving the likes of Take That and Britney Spears in her wake. Our well-placed source confirmed that Leona’s Snow Patrol cover has already sold more than three times her nearest rivals and the number one spot is almost guaranteed, yey!

Meanwhile lovely Leona’s been doing some blogging about her incredible year, her recent awards and of course how much she loves her new single:

Hi everyone

Firstly I want to start by saying how blown away I am by all of your support in making the album number 1. Thank you so much, this year has been absolutely incredible and I couldn’t have done it without all of you.

I also recently received an Urban Music Award, World Music Award and a Bambi Award in Germany, which is exciting especially since I’m a new artist. Big thanks to all of you that voted, I really appreciate you taking the time to do so.

I shot a video for ‘Run’ in South Africa, which was such an awesome experience. We filmed in a beautiful forest, the scenery was truly spectacular and I got to work with one of my favourite directors, Jake Nava.

I performed on the X Factor again which is always a nerve-wracking experience but I was a little less scared this time round! I really enjoy performing ‘Run’, I just get lost in it, the lyrics and melody take you on a real journey and those are my favourite kind of songs.

Lastly I want to let you know that ‘Run’ is now released as a single on iTunes. I’m so glad that it has connected with people in a powerful way as it has with me.

As always I thank you so much for your belief and support.

Love always

Leona-x-
