Filed under: Leona Lewis

After canceling her book tour post-assault, Leona Lewis took to her website to explain her side of the story.

She writes:

"Thank you so much for your support it is truly overwhelming. Yesterday was a horrible shock and left me extremely hurt and upset. I’m very sorry to those I wasn’t able to meet at the signing. Thank you again for all of the lovely messages."

So sweet!

We bet most celebrities wouldn't be so gracious after being punched in the head!

      AWWWW, NOW SHE HAS A BLEEDING HEAD TO MATCH HER BLEEDING LOVE :)



    2. 2

      Very classy young lady!



    3. 3

      I like Leona Lewis and all but how is she a "Survivor" for getting slapped up-side the head?



    4. 4

      I can't believe someone would do this to her. Hopefully, he'll get his punishment.



    5. 5

      O.M.G. - get the fuck over it………
      *
      where i come from bitches beat each other up and then the dumbasses put it on you tube so the cops can persecute them……….

      What a lovely, kind, beautiful (inside and out) and talented singer!
      I can't believe someone could do such a thing to her. I hope she will recover from the shock soon, i doubt she'll do another book signing any time soon, maybe never again. I hope she will be able to trust her true fans again one day! Leona, we will support you through the bad times, but we all know super great times are coming your way with what will be a massive album and single!



    7. 7

      Don't you think survivor is a bit much?



    8. 8

      uhm NO. She's over reacting. She's not gonna get slapped everywhere she goes. And how is she a survivor it wasn't life or death! just a minor injury! If miley or Lindsey Lo got slapped you would NOT be this sympathetic



    9. 9

      You were a whiny bitch.



    10. 10

      Making a youtube video crying "violence is never the answer" should come next right? Atleast hers was unprovoked unlike your beat down you tool



    11. 11

      First of all, a guy punched a girl in the face. That is never acceptable. This was an unprovoked attack and he must be mentally ill or something.



    12. 12

      Uh… why does she even have a book? She's had like.. two songs? Not that she deserves to get punched in the head or anything, but who is publishing these books by people who've been famous for like 5 minutes; not to mention reality competition show famous?



    13. 13

      Survivor, seriously? I would consider someone who has battled cancer to be a survivor not someone who took one shot to the face. I guess in a round about way Perez is calling himself a "survivor" for taking a punch to the face……..blllleeeeeeaaaaaaccccckkkkkk make me barf



    14. 14

      why would anybody punch Leona?!? thats like punching a fucking kitten! :P
      Leona is one of the sweetest girls ever, shes achieved massive success and is still one of the most down to earth and approachable stars, i just hope this doesnt put her off getting near her fans.

      P.S i hope the guy gets banged out!

      P.P.S follow me on t w i t t e r my names FUTURESTARdelux thanks x



    15. 15

      For example like you when you got slapped



    16. 16

      this chick is so beautifulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll! shake it off girl!



    17. 17

      Worse things have happened. She is very classy but "survivor" is a little extreme considering the MAJORITY of people do survive being punched/slapped in the face.



    18. 18

      –We bet most celebrities WOULD be so gracious after being punched in the head!–
      -

      Don't you mean WOULDN'T ?



    19. 19

      well maybe he wanted to fix her hooked nose by punching it.

      Give me a break. You act like she was viciously attacked. It was horrible, but it wasn't as if he knifed her up. Quit with the dramatics. Love the PR move for sympathy about "missing her fans at the signing" though.



    21. 21

      Re: ruunie641
      lmao hahahahaa so true!



    22. 22

      PEREZ WAS A TOTAL JACKASS AFTER HE HIT AND LOST ALL CREDIBILITY (NOT THAT HE HAD ANY TO BEGIN WITH. THE TRUTH.)!! WOW, FATBOY.. WUT EVER HAPPENED TO THAT SO-CALLED LAWSUIT AGAINST BEP'S ROAD MANAGER?? HAHA, GLAD THE CDN COURTS SAW THRU YOUR BULLSHIT AND DISMISSED IT. NEXT!!



    23. 23

      She is a truly classy lady. Anyone who hates on Leona is a worthless piece of dog shit.



    24. 24

      Re: Unari – When I punch your mother up the vagina plug hole then you can tell me it's not a vicious attack.



    25. 25

      A little dramatic there mario… SURVIVOR?? She got smacked and handled well. You make it sound like she beat cancer or something monumental.



    26. 26

      Re: BottomAceNJ – lol.



    27. 27

      Re: pishtosh – I agree.



    28. 28

      Yeah… you cried like a bitch over the internet.

      Survivor????? Did someone take an extra dose of drama with his breakfast.



    30. 30

      survivor? she got slapped in the head. she didn't get the shit beat out of her. RIHANNA is a survivor. i'm sure it was traumatizing but holy over reacting, perez.



    31. 31

      he she sounds like a rape victim. over doing it.



    32. 32

      A survivor? Really Perez? She got hit. I mean dont get me wrong I have no issues with Leona. She seems sweet and put out real music. But i think its a little far to call her a Survivor. But I am glad she is ok.



    33. 33

      jeez louise- calm down. i get that she's shaken up- it shakes you up to be randomly hit (punched? i thought she was slapped- big big big difference, guys). but good god, perez, you're acting like she was beaten beyond recognition. i even get wanting to cancel the tour- a tougher broad would have kept going, but she seems sweet and reserved- so that's fine- it's her choice, after all. but really…. really really- "survivor" is a bit much. move on.



    34. 34

      Oh please, she's not beaten cancer for goodness sake! I don't even know why she has a book out, she's not done anything.



    35. 35

      "survivor"??? Perez, are you serious?
      She got punched…that hardly makes her a "survivor"…
      Has she had a serious medical condition? Been in the army? Any of that?
      No. She got a smack in the mouth. So no, she is not a survivor. She isn't the only woman to get punched. Good God, if this was someone like Mariah Carey you'd be all LOLOLOLOL. But noooo, it's someone else and they're a "survivor"



    36. 36

      In second grade this kid hit me in the face. So I guess i'm a survivor too.



    37. 37

      she bugs me so much! she hasnt even done a flipping tour yet since she finished X factor 2 cycles ago!! and now she has a book?! Shes doing it the wrong way round, its totally ridiculous.

    38. T.rex says – reply to this


      38

      she sorta hot… tell her not to be scared of humanity just because of that one loser.



    39. 39

      I feel bad for her but this was boring the second after it came out! Gosh if it was anyone else it would be forgotten in a heartbeat…"survivor"? Isn't that over-doing it?? Yes, yes, it is!



    40. 40

      Re: **Me**Luv**Gaga** – You sound completely uneducated. Try for a bit of intelligence and maybe you'll be taken seriously.



    41. 41

      I love her! Poor thing. Get better security Leona



    42. 42

      survivor…shes not a fuckin cancer victim!! n in all honestly, theres no footage of her even getting hit or owt, and she has a single and an album coming out, and this book, and her tour. publicity rings a bell. might sound harsh, but no ones seen any evidence of anything yet, cud all have been set up as a stunt!! n even if it was real, yeh she got punched, she didnt deserve it, but come on dramarama ot what!?! theres worse things going on in the world.



    43. 43

      If that makes her a "survivor", who isn't one?



    44. 44

      I think it's crap that she got punched/slapped in the face or whatever, but you're motherfucking stupid for writting "survivor" on her picture. She didn't suffer and live through years of child abuse or some horrible ass ordeal for days and days. gtf over it you malodramatic asshole.If this was katherine Hiegel or Miley Cyrus you wouldn't be giving this praise of courage.



    45. 45

      BAHAHAHAHAHA you make it too easy dickhead



    46. 46

      She is awesome! I hope she puts this behind her and hires more security.



    47. 47

      Re: Lady_Saccharine_Sweetness
      lol i got kicked in the mouth in forth grade so im a survivor too right?



    48. 48

      Keep your chin up, sweetcheeks!!!

      If it makes you feel any better, people like Jean Chretien, once Prime Minister of Canada, was pied in the face not once, twice, but three times during his run. To take it to the extreme Kennedy was assasinated. Some people are just MAD, they have no clue especially when it comes to self-expression…

      Get well, babes!!!



    49. 49

      So brave. So, so brave.



    50. 50

      "We bet most gossip bloggers wouldn't be so gracious after being punched in the head! "

      Yeah, you. LOL



    51. 51

      'survivour'? how overdramatic lol, people have been slapped and not died before



    52. 52

      She's amazing, so classy. We love her!
