Hi everyone

Well I really don’t know what to say, I’m so overwhelmed right now!

I’m getting to share my music with people around the world and its beyond my wildest dreams. From the bottom of my heart thank u all so much, its because of you that I am able to do this.

I called my family to share the news and my mum started crying it was so sweet. They’re coming to visit me in new york and were all going to celebrate because its also my birthday when I’m there!

I’m still in LA at the moment so I’m going to make sure I find time to celebrate here too !!

Once again I can’t thank everyone enough for this incredible support !!

Luv
Leona

Hey everyone !!

Its been my first visit to Chicago - What a beautiful city but you really have to wrap up, v.cold ! We arrived in on Saturday to get ready for my performance today on Oprah ! 

To say I was nervous would be an understatement .. I am such an Oprah fan - I love the show and truly respect her and all the great charity work she does. It was a real honour to be on the show. I had tonsilitis for the whole week before so I was desperately trying to get better in time! I was overwhelmed being at the studios - the corridors are lined with photos of just a few of Oprahs amazing former guests!

Simon was on the show with me - was really great to see him for a catch up. We did an interview outside the studios after the show for entertainment tonight and a Chicago sightseeing bus pulled up just as we were starting- Simon got on the bus to take photos with everyone!! They loved it, was fun !

Also on the same show as me was Jamie Oliver - he is super lovely and came to say hi and well done afterwards. I’m gonna have to try and get some good vegetarian recipes from him soon !!!

My day ended with a flight into LA where I’m currently writing to you from.
I’m so excited to be able to spend some time in the US and showcase my music to everyone here. Its been a dream of mine since I was a little girl and I can’t wait !!!!

Thanks to everyone for the support so far, its just incredible and I appreciate it so so much.

I have a very busy week ahead here doing photoshoots and rehearsing with my live band but ill be sure to keep you updated and write more next week !

luv
Leona
