LEONA LEWIS: “IM NO GHETTO GIRL”

‘I think people have misconstrued the whole Hackney thing,’ says the Bleeding Love star.

‘I grew up in a nice house in a nice part of Hackney. My parents worked really hard for me to have a nice education.’

The 25-year-old, who attended the expensive and prestigious Sylvia Young and Italia Conti schools, tells In Style: ‘People are like “She lived on a council estate” but that wasn’t my experience.’
