Leona Lewis To Take Different Direction On Second Album

Leona Lewis won't be touring until 2010, but she is working on her second album in the meantime.

So far, the X Factor has yet to embark on a solo tour of her own, instead she has performed at various events and awards.

Now in an interview with the BBC, Lewis spoke of her forthcoming plans: "Live tour will probably come the year after next. Next year is album. Album then tour."

Speaking of her follow-up to debut album 'Spirit', Leona says: "It's a different direction. There'll be ballads too. That's my thing. But it'll have a bit of an edge to it."

"It's always good to keep it fresh and try new things."
