Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Weddings,

Leona Lewis with Simon CowellLeona Lewis would sing "Happy" at Simon Cowell's wedding.

The music mogul recently claimed he would have all his acts perform when he weds girlfriend Lauren Silverman and his X Factor protege - who shot to fame in 2006 with Simon's guidance - believes he would make her sing the hit ballad, which she recorded in 2009.

"He'd probably get me to sing 'Happy' because I think that's one of his favorites of my songs," she said.

The track is about taking chances no matter the potential risk, with lyrics including, "I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound, don't care about all the pain in front of me, 'cause I'm just trying to be happy."

Simon, 54, is expecting his first child - a boy - with Lauren and Leona, 28, admits it's "weird" to think of her close pal becoming a father. "It's so weird. I never thought I'd see the day but I think it's amazing. It's so lovely having a baby. I'm so happy for him," she added.

Leona Lewis Isn’t Worried About Losing Fame

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Features,

Leona LewisLeona Lewis would be "fine" if her celebrity status disappeared tomorrow.

The "Bleeding Love" hitmaker shot to fame after winning the third series of The X Factor in 2006 with the help of her mentor, Simon Cowell, but she admitted she wouldn't be too worried if she wasn't perceived as a star anymore: "Simon has always told me to trust my instincts and so that's what I've always done. I'd love to sing for the rest of my life, but if my celebrity status disappears tomorrow then I'll be completely fine with that, I really will."

The 28-year-old beauty is known for her powerful ballads, despite being more of an opera singer when she was younger, and she is hoping Simon will take her "more seriously" as a classical performer since she tasted success in the music industry:

"Well I did train in opera initially. I didn't actually switch to contemporary until I was in my teens. I wanted to be a classical singer originally. I told him [Simon] I'd love to make an opera album, and he was like, 'Yes, you should, at some point, blah blah blah, whatever.' I don't think he took it seriously. Perhaps he will now."

Lady Gaga and Sharon Osbourne

Kelly Osbourne wants to end her feud with Lady Gaga "like adults."

The Fashion Police host has reached out to the "Applause" hitmaker to apologize for acting "like a child" when the singer gave her mother Sharon Osbourne - who is a judge on the UK version of The X Factor - a birthday cake to pass on to Kelly, who turned 29 on Sunday. Gaga posed with Sharon and the cake after performing at London nightclub G-A-Y on Saturday and though Kelly - who lives in Los Angeles - suggested the gesture was a "publicity stunt," she is now keen to move on.

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Television, Weddings, Rumors,

Jason Trawick and Britney SpearsWedding bells will reportedly soon be in the air for Britney Spears and her fiance Jason Trawick. A source close to the pop star revealed that the pair are planning to tie the knot within weeks of finishing up her duties as an X Factor judge.

"She’s put a treadmill into her X Factor dressing room and is making sure she’s jogging as often as she can. She’s taking her look incredibly seriously and has said she will dazzle with her outfits and her body on the live finals of X Factor. It’s very much a countdown to the nuptials right now… We’re talking within weeks," the source said.

Hopefully the third time is the charm for the 30 year-old, as the upcoming wedding to Jason comes after her 55-hour marriage to her childhood sweetheart Jason Alexander and the subsequent two-year marriage to Kevin Federline, with whom she has two sons.

The season finale of The X Factor is set to air in November.

Demi Lovato, Simon Cowell, and Britney SpearsDemi Lovato wants Simon Cowell to find her a boyfriend.

The 19-year-old singer - who has previously dated Joe Jonas - would be happy for her new X Factor boss to help her find a new man, although she insists she is content to be single.

"I don't know what that's all about because I'm well off on my own, thank you. But I guess it's the one nice thing he is doing for me, so I'll take it," she said when asked on the official X Factor website if she is happy for Simon's plans to match-make for her.

Demi - who is joined on the panel of the show by Simon, Britney Spears and L.A. Reid - has also revealed she would like to be married and have children before she hits 30: "I want to be married with kids in 10 years. Just to a guy who makes me laugh. Obviously, I have to be attracted to him, but a sense of humor really does it for me. I don't have many deal breakers. I've done so much in my life, it doesn't feel right to judge other people. Oh, I know one quality I won't tolerate. I would never be with a guy who is controlling."

Sharon Osbourne, Simon Cowell, and Dannii Minogue

Sharon Osbourne is furious with Simon Cowell for including her in his tell-all book. According to new unauthorized biography, Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell, the 59-year-old matriarch "exploded" with rage upon learning that Simon was sleeping with Dannii Minogue when they all worked on the UK X Factor.

Now the matriarch - who eventually quit the show in 2008 because she no longer wanted to work with Dannii - has taken aim at her old boss from involving her in his "world of debauchery."

"I'm not Simon's mother - I don't give a toss who he f***s. That's none of my business. I think Simon thought he'd have complete control over this book. But how dare he bring me into it now? I don't want to be dragged into his little world of debauchery, thank you very much. I get on absolutely fine with Simon - and he will be fine - but I am p***ed off to be brought into it all again," she said.

VIDEO: Glee Cast Wows X Factor Audience

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Television, Videos,

Glee’s Cory Monteith, Amber Riley, Lea Michele, Kevin McHale, Jenna Ushkowitz, Naya Rivera, Chord Overstreet, Heather Morris, Mark Salling, Harry Shum, Jr. and Dianna Agron showed up at Britain’s X Factor this week to perform “Don’t Stop Believing,” much to the delight of the crowd. (Chris Colfer was not present, presumably because his character, Kurt, isn’t currently a member of New Directions.)

Their performance was preceded by a funny, taped clip featuring Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester and Matthew Morrison as club coach Will Schuester.

The number won a rousing standing ovation from the watching judges. Our favorite moment? When Amber Riley stepped down off the stage to belt her line right in Simon Cowell’s face. As any die-hard Gleek will tell you, Riley was rejected during her American Idol audition.

Watch the entire performance in the video above.
