Does Avatar Songstress Leona Lewis Pull It Off?

Man detained over attack on Leona Lewis

A man has been detained under the Mental Health Act after admitting punching pop star Leona Lewis.

Peter Kowalczyk, 29, had been charged with striking the singer during a book signing in London on 14 October.

City of Westminster Magistrates' Court heard schizophrenic Kowalczyk said "gotcha" as he hit her in the face.

Kowalczyk, from Waterloo, south London, admitted common assault and will remain in hospital. The court heard the attack had left Lewis scared to go out.

Melanie Lee, prosecuting, said the singer was left "frightened" and "devastated" by the incident at Waterstone's in Piccadilly, central London, which left Lewis with redness and swelling to the face, and whiplash symptoms.

She said Kowalczyk hit the left side of the star's face with his right fist as she went to sign his copy of her autobiography.

Ms Lee read out a witness statement by Lewis, which said: "I feel completely devastated by this attack.

"Now I am very frightened about going out in public and I don't know where the next attack will come from and if this will be more serious than what has just happened."

District judge Howard Riddle ordered that Kowalczyk should remain in hospital for an indeterminate period under a section 37 order.

He said: "This is what happens when you don't take your medication.

"A woman is now devastated."

Leona Lewis says she is a "good diva."

The British singer Leona Lewis, who has a reputation for being one of the nicest people in pop, says she only has the good characteristics of a diva - which includes having a big voice.

Leona Lewis said: "The term 'diva' has such a negative connotation, but I see myself as a kind of good diva. I'm a next-door diva."

To further prove her "good diva" credentials, Leona Lewis insists she doesn't make extravagant demands or make expensive purchases like many of her pop star contemporaries.

"Happy" singer Leona Lewis - who spent several months recording her new album "Echo" in Los Angeles - added in an interview with Petra magazine: "The biggest things I've bought are a house and my two cars. One of the cars is a Mini Cooper. But in Los Angeles I always drive a Hybrid Toyota Prius which is very environmentally friendly."

One star famed for her diva-like demands is Mariah Carey who recently revealed her pet dogs Cha Cha and JJ had their own entourage when she shot a recent commercial.

She previously said: "I had my team with me but the pups had a mini entourage of their own, of course! And why wouldn't they? It was a big shoot and even my entourage had an entourage - my stylist had an assistant, my security had extra security.

"The shoot was based on the fact that some people think I'm a demanding diva. I have no idea why people have that impression!"
