Just a few days after the UK”s X Factor winner, Leona Lewis, moved her life to Los Angeles the Daily Mail newspaper has been out snapping photos of her as she takes in the L.A. sun.

The 24 year old British import was said to be looking, a little ‘worn’ and ‘lonely‘, despite carrying two coffees, (she’s either hooked on the caffeine or has a friend!) and the newspaper’s interpretation of her appearance was that she had also moved up a dress size. Where?

And the usual ‘source’ told a UK magazine, ‘Leona’s basically very family orientated and she misses her parents and her boyfriend. She’s been homesick ever since she went to LA. She has no natural network of friends where she is now and rarely sees her mentor Simon Cowell’.

With a £5million five-album deal, a $220 million dollar home, a life in the Los Angeles sun, a promising stateside career, there can be little doubt that the paps are way off mark this time with Simon’s new prodigy!
