Oprah Winfrey has praised Bleeding Love singer Leona Lewis.

The American chat show queen told the X Factor winner: "You're the real deal girl" when she appeared on her programme.

Rising star Leona, a former student at Croydon's Brit School, wowed the studio audience with a performance and received a standing ovation.

Oprah then went on to say: "Talk about a star is born!"

Leona's mentor Simon Cowell said he had been "dying" to launch his protégé in the States.

I believe Leona will have great success here in the states. I first saw her on Oprah and cannot wait for her debut album.

Oprah Winfrey - the States is welcome to both of them.
