😂 his version of ‘the first time ever I saw your face’ is actually an exact copy of Leona Lewis’s version of the first time No one had done that rendition until Leona Lewis did it in her album Spirit in 2007 Matt performed it in 2010. They are identical. I prefer Leona’s live performance at Divas. That’s actually my favorite live performance of hers.

? Are u trolling? She wasn't dropped after this! She has had multiple albums after spirit! Her second one echo was pretty successful as well! Yes, her face isn't all over the world, but she really still is pretty successful, especially in Europe! I'm from Belgium, and she's super famous in Belgium, Holland, Germany, France etc.... Her Christmas album is super successful! Last year it reached top 1 album in UK! The song one more sleep is the UK version of all I want for Xmas is you by Mariah! One more sleep brings Leona millions of dollars income yearly! The song is a xmas yearly bob! The reason why Leona is not as known as before is because she doesn't like being super famous! She's pretty shy and introvert. She has also never taken off her cloths or twerked etc.!!! In this day and age, singers like Leona who are really true powerhouse singers don't work in our society cause of stupid social media and TikTok ruining music! Now anyone can get famous with the right amount of followers and autotune and twerking! I'm happy Leona has a medium success these days! It keeps her mentally sane and financially stable at the same time! Being overly known and famous and rich comes at a super high price, hence most celebs trip out, fall apart and have mental breakdowns!
