Monday, 17 November 2008
Leona Lewis might have impressed the nation with her version of Snow Patrol's Run on Saturday but she still gets nervous performing on the X Factor stage.
She told the official X Factor website that she has some advice for Eoghan Quigg, Ruth Lorenzo and the rest of the X Factor hopefuls.

Leona said: "With regard to nerves I would just say that you've got to breathe through it, and try to channel the energy into something positive.
"But the best piece of advice I could give them would be to enjoy it and try to have fun up there."
Leona won't name her favourite singer: "I think they are all impressive – that's a tough question!
"I love Cheryl's category, I think the girls are really strong, and also I like the boy group JLS, they're a cool band."
Leona admits that winning the X Factor changed her life: "The main things would probably be travelling a lot, and having people recognise me in the street, that's something I'm still getting adjusted to!"
