It kills me that you dumbasses who are #23 and #24 are still writing "first" on your comments. Don't you read the comments above yours and realize that you cannot possibly be first? That is so stupid anyways. Get a life! Who the hell cares?
Lela says – reply to this

That is a horrible picture of Leona. Could you found a better photo of the girl.
It's nice to see a singer like Leona who is not a : Drug addict, crazy & drunk stumbling out of clubs etc… Hope Leona stays grounded and never hangs around Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan and dear god stay the hell away from Britney.

It's too bad that "Bleeding Love" is the ONLY decent track off her entire album. I have never suffered through 45 minuted of boring dreck like that ever.
Holy Diver says – reply to this

36

Hey, guess who loves you? Jesus does. Yes, Jesus loves you. He died for your sins so you can go to Heaven. Isn't that great news? Jesus can save you. I used to make numerous posts on Craigslist looking for dudes to hook up with and I felt oh so dirty. But I asked Jesus to help me stop. Now I don't do it any more! Isn't that great news!? You can stop being dirty too. Just ask Jesus to come in to your life.

Re: Jean –

Because, you dumb cunt, the website still showed 0 comments when we posted, because it had not yet had the time to process the 23 other people who commented moments before we did. And don't say "who cares" since you obviously do, you bitch. I didn't just write "FIRST" I actually had something to say, but I figured, what the fuck, I may as well write FIRST if I am going to post. So eat shit.

Great song. Great album. Very talented. Worthy of the win on the telly!
john dixon says – reply to this

46

And just to clarify my earlier post: I think she's hot as fuck, but not in this picture. Her face looks terrible here (but that smokin' mocha body looks on time!). Still, I'd like to put a little MORE milk in that coffee.

I would bend her over, stick a few digits up her anus, remove the digits, stick some objects in her ass for an hour, then feast on her ass as if it was Thanksgiving dinner.

Looking at the comments, it seems most of America doesn't give a fuck about her….Stop it ALREADY!!! Did the UK promote Kelly Clarkson, or any other AI winner like this? NOT!!!!!!!!

Her song Bleeding Love is just a thinly disguised copy of Every Breath You Take by the Police. She should have just covered the song. Awful.

Woooo, I really like that song. Have to say Mariah though no thanks rather have the My Chemical Romance version to be honest.
sauce says – reply to this

The only good songs on that list are from Alicia and Girls Aloud. "Call the Shots" is a much better song than "Bleeding Anus" and if anything from the UK needs to be promoted in the US, it's Girls Aloud.

Ha ha the old cow trying to resurrect Debbie Harry and Madonna circa 1980, and Goldfrapp of 1990's has vanished from top 10.ha ha ha.

Kylie the fag hag.Minnie Mouse warbler with adenoids.

amber says – reply to this

This song is crap and we have a leona in every town over here so i dont think she will get anywhere. The UK must have some very crap singers if this is the best they can come up with and she one god damn ugly bitch anyway. US RULES the music world.

Erm, u what love?? WE have horrible taste in music?! The best artists that ever existed came from the Uk, i.e Rolling Stone, The Beatles, the Bee Gees Queen, the list goes on. Have you seen your own chart?! Ooh Rihanna, Dipstick boys, Lil Twat, you lot have no variety, R&B and Hip Hop is a pile of shit. So Fuck You. PS - Twat is an english word, I resent you dickheads using it……….15 years after the UK haha

"Bleeding Love" is that like period sex?
Sweet Face says – reply to this

86

For those defending the UK singles chart saying US music is crap must realize that the US and UK charts are almost the same. British are criticizing Beyonce despite the fact that she has had just as much sucess in the UK as in US. Some boy was also saying that US had crap like Rihanna not knowing that Umbrella was 10 WEEKS ON TOP OF THE UK SINGLES CHART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. BUT UK music sure does suck I mean Westlife, Sugababes and Girls Aloud.

I like Bleeding Love- good song. She's very pretty.
Whats w/ the Jebus references?
Micheal Savage is a closet case and probably a closet liberal.

It's only number one because she's been hawking the shit out of it
Simon Cowell is such a douche
I wish leona wud get her own style and not copy whit etc of yesteryear
I think the real achievement here is Mariah in the top ten with ZERO promotion 4 that song.

Ok chart music will always suck. But you can't judge UK music on the charts.
The Uk has some amazing new bands, The Wobats for example.

It doesn't matter what anyone says, you will always be biased towards ur country.

I do however blame the US for manufactured POP, however I love Girls Aloud.

US = Britney Spears (Enuf said) At least Amy does it with her talent intact.
