X Factor's Alexandra Burke: 'I'm Completely Different To Leona Lewis'

December 30, 2008
X Factor's Alexandra Burke: 'I'm Completely Different To Leona Lewis'X Factor winner Alexandra Burke has said she is “completely different” to former champion Leona Lewis.

Burke, who has frequently been compared to Lewis, said there was room for both of them in the charts.

"At the end of the day, Leona is a fantastic singer and a fantastic person, but people need to realise that we are completely different," she said.

"There is enough room for both of us. Leona is a little Mariah. With me, I hope I can show that I'm a little Beyoncé."

Burke also told Heat magazine she was hoping to tour with Beyonce after performing with the singer on The X Factor final.
