    Bleeding Love is a good song, but her cover of Run is TERRIBLE. She ruined a beautiful, beautiful song. It's a shame. Her cover is truly tragic.

    Re: Paula! – she puts the X factor in Spanx.



  34. 34

    Perez,
    I have had this song on my mp3 player for almost a year now. This is not a new song. So obviously your numbers can not be right.



  35. 35

    God she's ugly. could you imagine her without that hair? Just look at that horse face… and that nose!!!!



  36. 36

    Re: tammyot

  38. 38

    Is her face surgicaly implanted on that horses ass?



  39. 39

    Does she have girdle pants on?



  40. 40

    Re: Paula! – 31 OH SHIT I just saw it! I hadn't read your post!



  41. 41

    Re: PidgeTn – No one said it was new, you twit. It was just released on iTunes. That means people who didn't steal the song like you obviously did went out and bought it the way they are supposed to. DUH!



  42. 42

    SHE IS TRULY UGLY ! FUG HORSE FACE !!



  43. 43

    Nothing against her, she has a great voice. But this song was originally great and had its own feel to it that suited the song. Leona made it into a whiny, breathy piece of shit.



  44. 44

    This girl has an amazing voice, never lip syncs EVER, isn't out getting smashed or smoking crack and is seriously talented so why all the hate?

  45. utoia says – reply to this


    45

    Amazing, shes amazing! people talking about her looks shud stfu , just jealous!



  46. 46

    the most grotesque song ever. ewwww.



  47. 47

    She should've worn a dress that wouldn't show her spanx.



  48. 48

    Wow. I can't wait to see if the Fug Girls put this one up. NICE SPANX, BITCH! Check out a mirror before you leave the house, and act accordingly if you can see your friggin' girdle getup clearly through your dress, idiot.



  49. 49

    what a bunch of nasty pieces of work….. Why such negativity???
    hhmmm… NO YOU ALL CANT BE PEREZ!! YOU will not get your own website for trying to be more clever than the original. Speak only when you can sing, look or act better but no people like that have more class. If you do not have anything nice to say then say nothing….. Didnt your mom teach you manners??????



  50. 50

    so sick of her!



  51. 51

    'run' is incredible, maybe better than the original, im so glad shes doing really well

    She didn't do anything here.

    America couldn't care less.

    Mariah Lite



  53. 53

    Finally you are talking about someone who is actually talented, beautiful, down to earth and the best of the best for 2008! Hope Simon gives her some new material to record cause when she sings she sounds like an angel, her charisma and sympathy are awesome and her energy is pure white light! She deserves only kudos!



  54. 54

    ya seriously wtf?!



  55. 55
