February 23, 201015 yr Author Looks like the title could be 'The Labyrinth Tour' although I'm not 100% sure by the way she says it. She could just be meaning its based heavily on the film but it would be a great name and less predictable than going with an album or single title. :) EXCLUSIVE: Leona promises "weird and wonderful" tour Leona Lewis has promised that her upcoming tour will offer a "weird and wonderful" experience for pop fans. The singer confirmed that the arena show - her first since winning The X Factor in 2006 - has been inspired by 1986 fantasy film Labyrinth. "It's basically 'The Labyrinth Tour' and it's going to be amazing. We're planning it at the moment and they're building the sets and pieces for the staging," she told Digital Spy backstage at the Elle Style Awards. "It's kind of going to be weird and wonderful and we're trying to create another world for people to step into. "It's my first arena tour and people have been really, really wanting to see me live so I just want to give them the best show possible. I want everyone to go away being blown away." Lewis kicks off her 20-date UK and Ireland tour at Sheffield Arena on May 28. Further dates across the world are expected to be announced in due course.

February 24, 201015 yr I'm not quite as excited as I thought I would be. Also I'm seeing Gaga on Monday so I'm worried that Leona's show just won't compare. It does sound really interesting though, and I'm glad she's putting a lot of thought into the presentation of the tour as it had the potential to be a bit boring.
April 2, 201015 yr Any new news on this, its 8 weeks til the first date! :D Edited April 2, 201015 yr by Lukuzz
April 19, 201015 yr Im quite glad about that, I really like her. Need to listen to hear new album a bit more!
April 26, 201015 yr On wiki it says 'Ireland Dates Only' for Gabriella. I know wikipedia isnt the most reliable of sources but I hope this isn't true. I've been listening to her stuff a bit recently since hearing she was supporting and was looking forward to seeing her! Edited April 26, 201015 yr by Lukuzz
April 26, 201015 yr ^ i don't think its true. on the OS has enterview with Gabriella and she talks about the dates at the O2. Leona tour update: We talk exclusively to Gabriella Cilmi! There’s just over FOUR WEEKS TO GO until Leona’s national tour kicks off! And following our recent announcement that Gabriella Cilmi will be the support act on the tour, we managed to catch up with Gabriella for a quick chat! Here’s the interview EXCLUSIVELY for YOU! Hi Gabriella, great news to hear you’ll be supporting Leona on tour. You must be thrilled? Yeah, definitely, it’s going to be great. I’m most looking forward to playing the four dates at the O2 in London. I’ve also heard that Leona is going to have a Labyrinth theme so I’m looking forward to seeing how they put that together. I hear she’s a strict vegatarian so I’m also looking forward to the veggie catering! What can Leona fans expect from your show? A disco themed bunch of tunes to get you up and grooving, and hopefully a wind machine! Have you ever met Leona? I met Leona when we both played a gig in Ischgl, a ski resort in Austria. We also happened to be eating dinner in the same mountain-top restaurant. I remember it well because as diners we were treated to an Austrian guy yodeling whilst we ate. It was pretty funny. Are you a fan of Leona? She’s great. Obviously I love Bleeding Love! Better In Time is a great track too, it’s a good tune to sing along to. Thanks Gabriella, we’ll looking forward to catching you on tour! Yeah, see you all there! http://www.leonalewismusic.co.uk/gb/news/d...abriella_cilmi/
April 26, 201015 yr Oh, thats good then. I got a little worried. I played both of her albums today. Then again its all about Leona really anyways :wub:
April 28, 201015 yr Getting incredibly excited once again as this approaches :D Part of me doesn't want to watch vids on youtube but obviously I'll be unable to resist and refreshing youtube frantically for hours after the opening night!
April 28, 201015 yr Author Getting incredibly excited once again as this approaches :D Part of me doesn't want to watch vids on youtube but obviously I'll be unable to resist and refreshing youtube frantically for hours after the opening night! Ha same. I'd love to say I won't and it would be better if it was all a surprise. There's no way I will be able to resist though. :(
April 29, 201015 yr im not gonna watch any videos! Ill prob have a peek at the setlist but that will be all :)
April 30, 201015 yr Author TOUR EXCLUSIVE: We talk to Leona! We’ve got a another tour update for you today - what better than an exclusive chat with the lady herself, Leona! While she’s determined to keep everything about her tour top secret until opening night, Leona did agree to answer a few questions just for you! So, without further ado… Why did you name the tour The Labyrinth? I’m a big David Bowie fan and I loved the movie The Labyrinth growing up, it’ really has inspired me so much. I feel it kind of represents my life in a surreal way too, trying to find my way through a maze! What are you most excited about? I’m just so excited to finally get to perform for all my fans. I feel like I’ve been waiting for this moment - to have my own show - forever! I’m so ready to get out there! What can your fans expect? They can expect me to give my everything to them every night! I’ve put so much love and care into making this show over the last 6 months. I’m going to put on an incredible show for you guys! I don’t want to give away too much as I want it to be a surprise for everyone coming to see it! Who’s supporting you? I’m so lucky to have the lovely Gabriella Cilmi as my special guest. I fell in love with her song ‘Sweet About Me’ - I’m so pleased she’ll be entertaining you guys too! Will Melrose come and see any of your shows? Hahaha Melrose is in LA but I’ll be making sure she watches it on video at some point! Do you have a message for your fans? Just that I can’t wait to see you all on the road! It’ll be such a great feeling to look out into the audience and see you all there. See you soon guys xLx http://www.leonalewismusic.co.uk/gb/news/d..._talk_to_leona/
April 30, 201015 yr It's one of my favourite fims ever, so I'm pleased she's taken her inspiration for the tour from it, as it looks stunning. Can't wait until we get some set list info etc
April 30, 201015 yr I'm not going on the tour as i haven't got any tickets and no money i can spare. :cry: Hope you all have a great time there though.
May 1, 201015 yr It's one of my favourite fims ever, so I'm pleased she's taken her inspiration for the tour from it, as it looks stunning. Can't wait until we get some set list info etc I will have to watch it (even though I hate David Bowie)
May 1, 201015 yr Im not a massive fan of him either, but he's so good in this. The soundtrack is amaaaaazing!!!! And Jennifer Connolly is great in it too. The only thing that puts me off are his trousers. They're the tightest trousers I've ever seen and you can see just a wee bit too much :puke2:
May 2, 201015 yr i was well looking forward to seeing this but i've just found out that my final college exhibition is on the same night so i won't be able to go :(
