Earlier this week, Leona performed at the Hennessy Industry Finale Concert in New York.

The glamorous concert marked the end of the third annual Hennessy artistry concert series across America, and featured performances from Ne-Yo and Fabolous, as well as Leona.

Leona had a great time, and here are some photos from the big night.

Hey guys,

I’m writing this just as I’ve finished my first show in New York which was so exciting, I performed 6 songs with my live band and Ne-Yo also performed. It was a really good night that I’ve been looking forward to for so long and I had a fantastic time on stage!

It was a double highlight for me because I just found out that I won 2 MOBO awards, which is truly incredible and I feel so honoured and so happy! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone that supported and voted for me, you blow me away with all of the love that you show, I’m so grateful.

I was devastated to not be able to be in the UK for the event. I went to the MOBOs last year and I really support all they do for UK music. To not be able to collect the award myself was so disappointing for me, I really wish I could have been there! I would have loved nothing more than to celebrate with everyone, and a big congratulations to all of the nominees and winners. 

I’m back in the UK next week and I’m super excited about all the upcoming shows, which I’ll update you on.

As always, the continued support that you all show me is overwhelming, you are the reason I am able to do this and I never forget that. Thank you.

Love always
Leona-x-

Congratulations to Leona, who scooped two wins at last night’s MOBO Awards.

She picked up the awards for Best Album and Best Video (‘Bleeding Love’), thanks to your votes!

A huge thank you from Leona for your continued amazing support.
