Jordin Sparks: 'Leona almost made me cry'

Jordin Sparks has revealed that Leona Lewis's kindness almost reduced her to tears at Divas Live last month.

The American Idol star became emotional after finding a message from Lewis in her dressing room, she recalled.

"Leona actually wrote me a personalised card saying it was an honour to be going onstage with me, which was just so, so sweet," Sparks told DS.

"I really wasn't expecting it and she almost had me in tears! You guys have a really, really good girl in Leona."

Sparks also revealed that she is a big fan of 'Happy', the first single from Lewis's upcoming album Echo.

"I love the lyrics and you can definitely hear that Ryan Tedder worked on the music. The way Leona performs it is just amazing. I love everything that Leona does though - I'd listen to her sing the phonebook," she said.
