Singer Leona Lewis linked with Bond 22 theme

MEDIA RUMOUR
The ever unreliable tabloid The News Of The World claims to have another 'exclusive' on its hands today.

According to the paper, singer Leona Lewis is being tapped to sing the theme to the 22nd James Bond film.

The NOTW says, "the X Factor winner — whose single Bleeding Love is set to top the charts this week — is the girl with the golden voice and want her to perform the signature tune for the film."

A "pal" said: "Leona's beaming from ear to ear at being asked to be part of such a huge movie. She thinks it's a real honour to follow in the footsteps of some of the world's biggest female names including Shirley Bassey, Sheryl Crow, Madonna and Tina Turner."

Note: It's always amazing how the papers can get well researched quotes from 'pals' at such short notice

The 22-year-old's record company BMG said: "Leona's management are in talks with various movie producers at the moment for a number of projects."

Her debut single A Moment Like This was the Christmas No 1 and smashed the world record when it was downloaded 50,000 times in the first half hour.

Thanks to `Ron` for the alert.
