The fact is, Lewis and Aguilera probably wouldn't have, so it's not really working for you. I just think it's a shitty way out.
You are saying not to judge her on what I see, you are the one judging her on things she hasn't even done.

Amen. 😂
She's boring, really. Bleeding Love now annoys the hell outta me glare But that's not the point.
The point is that you've convinced yourself she'll be great, all that, etc.
But she really isn't that great.
She's just a voice, with a pretty face.
She's young too. probably just in for the fame & money. Oh, let's not forget the popularity.

as in they were both discovered on a talent show, the fact that one is a legend and was discovered in pretty much exactly the same way leona was. Yet with leona it makes her "cheap" that would make legends like Michael Jackson pretty cheap too by that retarded logic
come on honey get the thinking cap on..jeeze 🙄

There's a bit of a difference between the talent possessed by Michael Jackson and the talent possessed by Leona Lewis.
Michael Jackson was NOTICED on a talent show when he was a child and had no choice, regardless whether or not the people liked him then, he'd still have got where he is.
Leona is a grown woman who wasn't noticed for a reason.
There is a big difference between the two.
Leona Lewis is shit, she's lame.

no he wasnt NOTICED..it was BECAUSE of that talent show that he got signed to MOTOWN
get your facts RIGHT please
she's shit and lame all the way to the bank..
you can dislike her all you want but there is no denying the talent. Its very rare for a singer to have a 4/5 octave vocal range and be an alto mezzo at the same time.
And its also very rare for them to sound exactly like their studio version live.
that is natural god given talent my friend..not cheapness, she's not rihanna, she's not beyonce: the ones who need to lip and be reverbed beyond recognition to sound anywhere even remotely appealing to the ear..
I also have to inform you that J records is in no way linked with the X-Factor and its contract system. J records is the record company in America that noticed Leona during the X-factor and wanted to sign her before she won but ended up signing her afterward with a 10 million dollar contract because there were major fights with 4 other US record lables over her at the time. They are the ones who created the album..Not the X-Factor contract..so she actually won the show..but her contract is there by means of being noticed for her talent..not for winning.

Yes, a talent show he got noticed in, because he was forced to enter. He was only a kid. He would have been discovered anyway.
Leona Lewis is a grown woman who couldn't have got noticed any other way, you said it yourself.

My facts are right.
So? Her being rich now doesn't make any difference to her talent. Britney Spears is super rich.

She doesn't have a five octave range, that's Mariah Carey's. If you can prove she has a four octave range, I'll admit to it, but that still doesn't mean anything. If you can prove she's technically able, I'll agree. Doesn't make her music good.
Her music is shit, to me.

Have you seen her live, or is this one of your assumptions from what you've seen online or on TV? What you hear or see on TV or online is direct from the soundboard, it's not technically "live".

That's irrelevant, because her "natural, God given talent" got her nowhere. She considered quitting music because of it, so it's clear she doesn't love music or love singing, because anyone who does...does it because they LOVE to do it. She was gonna quit, but her boyfriend convinced her to whore herself to X-Factor, and now she's a sellout.

Exactly, if she really loved music and really had talent, she'd not have gone to X-Factor, she'd have pursued her goal without the aid of some random idiots and the general public. They obviously liked her whether she won or not, whether she was on there or not.
She is about the money and she is about the fame, ergo, she's not a real artist. She's not in it for the music or the love of music. Facts prove that, her history proves that. If she loved music so much, she'd not have wanted to quit because she wasn't getting famous.
