A British singer, songwriter, actress, model, and activist, Leona Louise Lewis was born on April 3, 1985. Her estimated net worth is $30 million. Middle child of three, Leona Louise Lewis grew raised in London. She started her training for a musical career at a very young age and received her schooling at performing arts academies. At the age of 12, Leona Lewis composed her first song; at the age of 13, she won her first talent competition. She worked as a server and a receptionist after graduating from college to pay for time in a recording studio.

British singer, songwriter, actress, model and activist Leona Lewis has an estimated net worth of $30 million dollars, as of 2023. She became famous when she won The X Factor in 2006, winning a £1 million recording contract with Simon Cowell’s record label, Syco Music.

In 2006, Leona Lewis participated in an X Factor UK audition for the third season. Simon Cowell served as her show coach, and she constantly received high marks from each of the show’s three judges. Lewis was without a doubt the competition’s most dominant competitor by the end of the show’s season. With 60% of the voting, she comfortably won the championship.

After winning The X Factor on December 20, 2006, Leona Lewis instantly dropped her first single, a cover of Kelly Clarkson‘s debut single “A Moment Like This.” “A Moment Like This” sold an astounding 50,000 downloads in the first 30 minutes of its release. The song outsold the other top 40 songs in the UK combined in its first week, selling more than 500,000 copies.

Leona Lewis withdrew from the spotlight after “A Moment Like This” became a hit in order to finish her debut album, Spirit. For the first time, Lewis’ mentor Simon Cowell and music industry great Clive Davis worked together to choose the songs and producers for the album. Songs for the album were recorded by Leona Lewis in the US and the UK alongside artists including Stargate, Ne-Yo, and Dallas Austin among many others.

On October 22, 2007, “Bleeding Love,” the project’s debut single, was made available in the UK. OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder and Jesse McCartney, who also co-wrote the #1 US hit “Apologize” contributed to the song’s composition. The producer is Tedder as well. “Bleeding Love” swiftly surpassed all previous sales records for 2007 in the UK and remained at the top for an extended period of time.

On November 12, 2007, the album Spirit was released, and it quickly surpassed the Arctic Monkeys’ previous record for quickest debut album sales in the UK. The biggest-selling single of 2008 was “Bleeding Love” which reached #1 in the US after its release. It received a Grammy Award nomination for Record of the Year.

“Better In Time.” another major smash single from the Spirit album, was produced. Her rendition of Snow Patrol’s “Run” in the fall of 2008 resulted in previously unheard-of requests for the song to be played on BBC Radio 1. The much-anticipated lead single from Leona Lewis’ next album Echo, “Happy,” was released in the latter part of the summer of 2009.

Lewis severed ways with Syco Music in June 2014 and inked a new recording contract with Universal Music’s Island Records UK. Lewis unveiled “Fire Under My Feet” to be the lead single from her fifth studio album in April 2015 during a showcase in London. Lewis played in Washington, D.C., for the National Memorial Day Concert in 2018. In a 2019 episode of the NBC television program Songland, which was looking for up-and-coming composers, she made an appearance as a musical guest. Lewis collaborated with Smokey Robinson, Tori Kelly, and Sam Fischer on a charity rendition of “What The World Needs Now” in December 2020. Leona Lewis’ net worth is projected to reach $30 million as of 2023.
