'X Factor' hopeful Leona Lewis has reportedly been invited onto 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' in the US.
According to The Sun, the 21-year-old singer is already a hit in the US, for her powerful singing performances each Saturday night.
An insider told the paper: "It's a massive boost for Leona because Ellen's show is huge in America and you have to be pretty special to get on."
"They have been checking her out each week on the show because there's been a real buzz around her out there. They made contact and invited her to come and be a guest."
Her mentor on the show, Simon Cowell, said that he had just come home from Los Angeles for last Saturday's show, telling her: "I've been there and everyone is buzzing about you. It's unbelievable."
