Hey everyone
Hey everyone,
Firstly Happy New Year! I hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year.
My year really has started with the most incredible news. I can’t believe I’m nominated for four Brit Awards! It’s beyond my wildest dreams! I went to the Brits school and while I was there we were taken to the Awards once to be in the audience - I remember it was the year Five performed. I’ll always have that memory! I can’t wait for February 20th - it’ll be such an exciting night.
I’m writing this from backstage at a TV show called ‘Benissimo’ in Switzerland. For the last few days I’ve been in Europe, I’ve had such a great time and everyone has been so welcoming to me.
My first stop was Munich where I spent a day doing lots of press and radio interviews, I also got a chance to visit the Viva studios where I did their live show. I had to have a translator in my ear as the host asked the questions in German which was a bit daunting!
We then flew to Berlin where there were just a few more interviews! It was so much fun spending time with new people and learning about these new places. I’ve only been to Germany once before when I was young - we drove from the UK on our way to Poland (we listened to the Whitney album the whole journey!) Thank you so much to everyone I met whilst I was in Europe - it was such an amazing trip and I hope to be back very soon!
I can’t wait to go to France next - I’m traveling to Paris and then to Cannes - I’ll update you on how it all goes! I’m going to try and run around and do some sightseeing - Eiffel Tower, Arc De Triomphe! I can’t wait!
I’m now about to go on stage and perform ‘Bleeding Love’ for the first time on European TV, I’m really nervous! 10 minutes to go!
Better Go!
Lots of Love
Leona
