Leona Lewis Gushes Over Lil Wayne
Leona Lewis and Lil Wayne
Leona Lewis was caught by surprise when she unexpectedly received a call from Lil Wayne asking her to perform with him at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards. She reflects back on the memory and her lasting impressions of the Cash Money bad boy.
The “Happy” singer, whose new album Echo was released this week, told Rap-Up.com that their collaboration on the Nina Simone-sampled “DontGetIt” from Tha Carter III came together at the last minute.
“It was really fun. I just remember him calling up and saying, ‘Uhh, can Leona sing on the song?’ And I was like, ‘That’s so random, like, Lil Wayne. Does he even know who I am?’” she laughed. “What could Lil Wayne and I possibly collaborate on, seriously? They played me the song the day before I was supposed to do it and I was like, ‘Hmm, I’m not going to be able to learn it.’ Then I heard it was a Nina Simone sample and I was just like, ‘Oh my gosh. This is amazing.’ So I said, ‘Yeah, I’ll definitely be involved.’”
Lewis got the chance to chat with Weezy offstage and was impressed by the rapper’s manners. “He’s all about that Southern hospitality and politeness, ‘thank you, ma’am,’ and all that. He’s so sweet.”

It might be the hair or the manners. But manners go a lot farther than sexy braided dreds. matter of fact I wish I had dreds sometimes so I could style it like Weezy Fucking Baby.
for me it’s the dimple on his right cheek, his hair, his laugh, his voice, the hair on his legs, his teeth, his shoes, his hair, the way his boxers are always the same length above his pants, his swag <3 : )
