Leona conquers YouTube chart

JUST when you think the LEONA LEWIS success express is slowing, she goes and
gets herself another gold star beside her name.

After conquering the US, the X Factor winner is now making her mark on video
site YouTube with millions of hits.

The promo for her hit single Bleeding Love has entered the site’s top ten most
viewed videos of all time.

As if that wasn’t impressive enough, she is also the only British artist to
make it anywhere near the top ten.

At the last count, more than 55million people had watched the video for
Leona’s No1 single.

She is currently in sixth place but is snapping at the heels of TIMBALAND
featuring ONE REPUBLIC’s Apologise video, which has been eyeballed by
56million.

Also ahead of our Leona is Canadian warbler AVRIL LAVIGNE with
Girlfriend, which has been viewed more than 85million times, and RIHANNA’s
Don’t Stop The Music, which is the fourth most-watched YouTube clip of all
time.

The video that has been viewed the most is Evolution Of Dance, which has
clocked up more than 86million hits.

Leona is currently averaging around 150,000 views a day.




But hardcore fans are furious that she appears to have suddenly disappeared
from YouTube’s official list.

I’m not one for conspiracy theories but I’ve reported the fault to YouTube
bosses and I reckon that she’ll be back to her rightful place in no time.
