Leona Lewis to miss BRITs

Leona Lewis is reportedly skipping the BRIT Awards, where she is nominated for Best British Single, for fear of losing again, according to the Daily Star.

According to reports, Leona Lewis has decided not to go to The Brit Awards this week, because she is afraid she won't win anything. Which isn't unlikely, given that she's only nominated in the Best British Single category. That's decided by a public vote though, so presumably she's in with more of a chance than if she were nominated elsewhere.

A source told the Daily Star: "The Brits is the biggest night of the UK music calendar, and Leona is arguably our biggest star, but she's giving it a wide berth. Leona was shocked she didn't pick up even one award last time and only last week watched her rivals clean up at the Grammys".

"With her massive sales it's ridiculous, but she's aware there's a lot of snobbery around reality TV winners. Rather than face the humiliation of being snubbed again, Leona's staying away".
