She's got a good voice for real and I think she'll do well (so will you - Mr place your bets). she's not as amazing as people make out though. In comparison to what's on the rest of British TV (I'm thinking Sugababes, Lily Allen etc.) then she's a VERY GOOD live SINGER but she's not a great PERFORMER. She doesn't make the songs her own and her range is limited (she's got a beautiful tone inside her range but I've seen better on a Sunday morning at church). She doesn't have a presence on stage- I'd prefer to listen to her than watch her, but I know she's relatively new to live performance so I hope that will change. Nevertheless [is that one word?] I will be voting for her and encouraging all the Londoners on Myspace to do the same and support our girl. I'm a little worried about what will happen when X Factor is over and her career kicks off- she seems quite vulnerable and timid I just hope the industry doesn't wear her down and turn out another Mariah Carey/Whitney Houston disaster (sweet girls who became scary women). VOTE LEONA people she's a good singer and for once this competition has come across something good but please don't do a Lemar (crap production, poor promotion, low budget pop- please no not another British artist down the pan due to lack of investment and short-sightedness)

It actaully annoys me slightly when people diss her. She IS talented, she CAN sing. So what if she's like some of the legends we have/had. It's about time we had some real talent win the show (presuming she's gunna win of course) I mean Steve Brookstein and Shayne Ward certainly didn't do that.
One thing that also annoys me, is how Ray got to the final. Ben was very much more talented than him. He could actually sing in tune for a start. If Ray wins I will be very upsetted. Go Leona!

She is amazing and so talented. So was Ben and I am gutted he is not in the final. I am sure it was a fix by Simon Cowell as he is way way above Ray. It would have been close between Leona and Ben but she will beat Ray hands down.

I have wanted Ben to win from the start but after last saturday I can see why Leona should win not sure why the little man is in the final unless it is to ensure Leona wins!

She does indeed have a brilliant voice with an enviable range.... but so does Mariah Carey and I personally could never stand her! I would never say the girl is bad at what she does, but I can categorically state I wouldn't buy anything she released as her music just don't float my boat. And Ben is absolutely lucky to have not won, cos lets face it, it's hardly the route to credibility is it, winning the X Factor??!!

I dont think anyone can dispute that she's talented but whats put me off her is the way everyone,like Simon Cowell,has had her down to win and be a huge star since basically her first audition.I've just got sick of hearing about Leona

I agree with Babaloo. She is a brilliant singer and is talented and very much like Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. Cant stand either of them and will never buy an album of theirs so My vote is wasted on her. Ben wasnt that good last week. Felt he was screaming.

I'm convinced the show's fixed for her to win it. Ben was by far the most original and talented singer on x factor

Leona is excellent. How could anyone say any different? Even my nan thinks she's good and she is 92 years old and not usually into these 'modern pop singers'!!!

She is talented, she has a great voice, can hold a note and is very good......BUT, she has nothing different from lots of other women in the charts and thats why we don't need another Whitney, Mariah or Celine. Ben should be in the final
