Leona Lewis, a British pop and R&B singer, has released two studio albums, eight singles and ten music videos on recording label Sony BMG and its subsidiary Syco. Lewis has also featured on a charity single entitled "Just Stand Up!".

Lewis rose to fame as the contestant and eventual winner of the third series of British television talent show, The X Factor. Her prize for winning was a £1 million recording contract with Syco Records. Her first single, "A Moment Like This" was released to success in the United Kingdom and Ireland, becoming the fastest selling single ever by a female artist in the UK. Her follow-up single, "Bleeding Love", received unprecedented success and critical acclaim, becoming the biggest-selling single of 2008 worldwide. Lewis's first studio album, Spirit was released to follow the single in 2007 and was the fastest-selling debut album of all time in the UK and Ireland.[1][2] The album carries a 9× platinum certification in the UK, and is listed as being the 27th biggest-selling album of all time in that country,[3] despite having being released for just two years prior to the compilation. Lewis has achieved success with further singles, including "Better in Time" and "Run". Her second studio album, Echo was released on 9 November 2009, so far producing two singles the world-wide hit "Happy" and "I Got You". Lewis recorded the theme song, "I See You", for the 2009 film Avatar.[4]
