Leona wants to ride with Jordan
|
Singer Leona Lewis has revealed she wants to ride Jordan. Oh, sorry, missed a word there: she wants to ride with Jordan. Yes, the X Factor winner turned surprisingly big star says she's a huge fan of horses and only discovered Katie Price was too when she saw her saddlebound in the Daily Mirror.
"I want to be her best friend so when you see her can you ask her to give me a call?" she reportedly asked 3AM Girls Clemmie Moodie and Danielle Lawler, who being nice obedient celebrity reporters, will no doubt oblige.
"I love horses and I'd love to meet up with Jordan sometime and go riding," she added. "I've been trying to get my own horse for a long time. I've scoured the internet and everything looking for the perfect one. If I get myself another No.1 I'm going to buy one – I want to call it Spirit, after my album."
Clever plug there, Leona. The star has also admitted how scary it was at MTV's Video Music Awards. "I was more nervous at the after-show party," she said. "I was performing and the place was full of celebrities."
"Just before I was due to go on the organiser came over and said 'Christina Aguilera has asked to sit on the front row as she wants to see you and there is Paris [Hilton], Mischa Barton...' I must have looked like I was panicking as my assistant pulled me away."
She also got to meet singer Katy Perry, but we imagine Leona's assistant did a bit more pulling away – she sounds like a bit of a stalker, to be honest. "I met Leona Lewis who I'm obsessed with," said a breathless Katy, "and I passed by the Jonas Brothers, they kept me 10ft away though! I met Russell Brand who I'm in love with. I love him."
Bet Jord and Leona don't invite her on their gallops…
