Leona Lewis Book Signing Gone Wild

Written by: Julie on 15 October 2009 | 6 Comments |

Leona LewisSinger Leona Lewis was signing copies of her autobiography, Dreams, in London on Wednesday when a so called fan actually punched her. The guy reportedly ran up to her about 90 minutes into her book signing and hit her in the head. Though she didn’t have to go to the hospital for her injuries, the incident shook her up so badly that she backed out of a scheduled appearance on The One Show, a show on the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) that was scheduled for the same night this happened.

The bookstore where this incident took place said that they would support any police investigation into the incident and thanked her for remaining professional throughout the ordeal.

Leona Lewis is releasing her second album, Echo, on November 17th. A single from the album, called “Happy,” was recently released. No doubt she had been doing this book signing to promote the release of her album. While it sucks that this happened to her, they say there’s no such thing as bad publicity. The guy that punched her may have inadvertently given both her book sales and record sales a boost. Funny how karma works, isn’t it?

    This incident reminded me of how vulnerable celebrities are to stalkers.
