Not that it would seem like a possible scenario anyway, Leona Lewis has vowed that she will not become another Amy Winehouse (24). The beautiful British singer and songwriter admitted that she admires Amy’s musical talents, but would definitely avoid the path she has taken. Wise, that. According to Leona (23), having a strong and supportive family is one way of helping her keep her feet on the ground.
“Amy is so talented. But a performer’s privacy is taken away. The media are always there,” Daily Star quoted her as saying. “You can’t make your mistakes in private. I have the advantage of a great support structure. I get honest opinions from family and friends. They aren’t always telling me what I want to hear, but the truth helps keep my head straight,” she said
Leona told Parade Magazine that she (understandably) is honored to be compared to legendary divas Whitney Houston (44) and Mariah Carey (38). “It’s exceedingly gratifying because they’re so great,” she added.
