Leona logged on earlier on her fansite (click on my homepage link) and she answered a few questions from fans!
Was very nice of her!

Asbolutely love Leona. If Leona keeps her feet firmly on the ground, doesn't get carried away with all the the media/bookies hype, she should stand a reasonably god chance of pipping Ben and Eton road to victory imho. All it takes is one bad performance though, because unlike 3 may be 4 others, she doesn't have a heart breaking story to lean back on.

She has the natural talent, image and as shown in her last performance for the first time, the personality (charisma) become world popular solo artist. The fact she has even joined a fansite of hers amazes me, it shows she is keeping in touch with reality and that i believe will take her through in the end. (she's destined)

OMG! I've a filthy mind to think, ay what the hell is someone saying Leona logs onto her fansite for? Meaning for a minute I thought she 'poo'd' on her site. Log...get it? Oh well. At least I shared my thought with others.

Well that's good that she's actually logged on her site. Has she posted anything yet?

Yup she has answered questions in the 'Ask Leona' section and has also posted in some threads saying thanks to her fans....and PMSL when reading your first sentance.....I never thought of it that way at first! It's probably you who only thinks like that so instantly lol!

Yes she has said said thanks for all the support etc it means alot to her and she says they all get a few hours free a day so she logs on her myspace and now the forum to see what everyone is saying, She really does appreciate all the support though.

Aww, I'm so glad for Leona to be feeling the support from her fans, not only by the way she was highly voted to stay in, but by all the fan support too! It's good for her to touch base and especially at such an early stage of her (future) career!

Know Yourself!, you sure do when it comes to knowing it's probably only me who thinks like that, so instantly!

I too, think Leona could win this. Liked her from her first audition.

Very talented young lady. Thank goodness she hasn't been reduced to sob stories, as I think the public are getting sick of them. I know I am.

Can't see it I'm afraid. I like Leona, out of the first round I reckon she's got the most potential, but she ain't gonna win it. Why?

1. She's female.
2. She's good looking.
3. The teenage girl audience will hate her.

Will bet you she's in the final two next week along with Dionne.

The "teenage girl audience" will all aspire to be just like her! I disagree, sorry, especially the urban / mix race young community.

As long as the stylists dont try and make her too sexy then i think girls will like her, all the girls i know seem to think she is really sweet and down to earth, she has the whole 'girl next door' image which isnt offensive despite her good looks, and the pretty boys in the competetion arent really any competetion this year because neither have very good voices and ashley in particular isnt very likeable.

Another thing is she dosent come across as over confident or like she loves herself too much which is often a critiism aimed at attractive girls.

Doesnt anyone think that the days of fluffy bubblegum music and images have passed, quite a while ago in fact. From her descrition quoted above, thats all I can see.
Take a look at the charts, look for any female that Leona could aspire to emulate in style and genre, I doubt you will find any.
My worry for her is where will she be placed, musically and image wise after the show should she win but she does have as much chance as anybody else in the show.

Alicia keys, Mariah Carey, Christiana Aguilara and even Jamelia.
