Mar 27 2008 - I’m number one in the US!

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

Felt I needed to let you know that your voice and personality have really helped to light up my life recently! I always look forward to hearing your performances, they never fail to amaze me.

Come back to the UK soon x x x

You are incrediable beautiful and talented. God bless you in your endeavors.
Ps they were playing Bleeding love at Target here in Chicago on one of the displays and everyone went wild and ran over to grab the CD!



cbetts1 Posted on 31/03/2008 at 4:27pm

Hi Leona,

my lil boy who is 3, we always sing to bleeding love. and when we saw you on the TV, he said “look Mummy its the PRINCESS” and i thought it was beautiful that he thought you were a real life princess. Keep going you are an inspiration x

Lauren:) Posted on 31/03/2008 at 10:27am

Hi Leona!
I read an interview that you did with TOTP magazine, and i was really pleased that you were against wearing fur etc. It’s nice to see that some celebs actually care about animals. (Well done for getting no.1 in the U.S)
Lots of love,
Lauren xxx



Leo-ardo- Posted on 31/03/2008 at 10:06am

Hi Leona,
I want to say you’re already known worldwide, i’m from Malaysia and your songs are being played on the radio.
from, Leon

PS: I have the same name as you except i’m a guy and i dont have an “A” at the end.



star_gazer Posted on 30/03/2008 at 8:48pm

Hi

I idn’t know there were so many charts until leona. She seems to be no. 1 in the world as well as US with bleeding love.

Your song ‘Footprints in the sand’ is amazing it gave me shivers down my spine, it is really touching!The song also reminds me of the poem ‘Footprints in the sand’ by Mary stevenson.
All the best for the future!
