Leona Lewis Tickets

Leona Lewis claims that reality show contestants are more talented that normal artists who are already in the charts, as they have to prove that they can sing.

The 26-year-old shot to fame in 2006 when she won The X Factor and has become one of the UK's most successful singers of all time.

Explaining the hardwork she put in to become a worldwide superstar, Leona told Time Out Dubai: "Because my first single, 'Bleeding Love', did so well - it went number one in, like, 30 different countries - I've proved myself not to be a sell-out."

"And people see me on the show, where people are singing live; there's no miming like you see so many artists now doing on TV shows. You're out there in front of so many people and there's so much pressure."

She added: "So in all honesty, a lot of reality-show musicians are more talented than the artists who are actually out right now. There's no Auto-Tune, no nothing. It's all raw, genuine, so a lot of the people are actually very, very talented."
