It must be hard being famous - at least, when you're Leona Lewis. But who can blame the poor lass who's already experienced being stalked, harassed and even survived a random assault during a book-signing she held last year.

Leona recently opened up about her feelings towards that unforgettable incident:

'For a while afterwards that had a big effect on me, it was very shocking. He attacked me out of the blue. He was very unwell. It was really random, something that was done by a very ill person. It wasn't fun – I was extremely hurt and upset.

'It could have been worse, though. I am still alive. It made me realise it's important to always be vigilant and aware of your surroundings – but I don't want to make myself too closed off.

'I'm a positive person, I don't like to dwell on negatives and I love what I'm doing. I was sorry for those who I wasn't able to meet at the signing because of what happened, and grateful for all the lovely messages of support I got.'
