Leona Lewis has revealed that she would like to follow Beyoncé's lead and go into acting.

The star, who also recently admitted that she would consider a judge's role on The X Factor, called Beyoncé a role model for other women.

"Beyoncé is a great girl, so lovely and down to earth and talented. She's definitely inspiring for females," she said.

"I might go into acting like she did. I'm not sure. If the right thing comes along, like a small part in a movie, I might."

The singer added that she is interested in branching out into other areas of marketing.

"A few people have offered different things. There hasn't been anything too crazy, just perfume and things like that. I haven't done any of them as yet. I'm still working on my clothing like. I'm finding the right companies to work with and discussing different ideas with creative teams," she said.
