$2 Million Fee for Leona Lewis

by

leona lewis 2 Million Wow. It looks like Simon Cowell’s discovery is really going and soaring in high places. Starpulse is reporting that booking Leona Lewis, newest British singing sensation, for a singing engagement will reportedly cost US $2 Million. It’s almost the same fee for when someone books a Paul McCartney appearance.

From Starpulse:

The Bleeding Love star has enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame since winning U.K. talent show The X Factor in 2006 - and can demand huge amounts of cash to perform intimate gigs for wealthy fans. The star has been offered a $2 million personal appearance fee to play a small set for an unknown bidder, according to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper.

A source tells the publication, “Leona is one of the most sought after stars around. She has little say in the fee charges - big money sponsors literally name their fee and her management respond accordingly. She is adamant much of the profit goes straight back to her favorite charities.”

Lewis, who has hit the top spot in both the U.K. and U.S. album charts with her debut LP Spirit, is reportedly worth $12 million - but gives most of her money away to charity organizations.
