Sick Leona flies home from Los Angeles
X Factor winner Leona Lewis is flying home from Los Angeles after falling ill while recording her debut album.

The 23-year-old singer is suffering from tonsillitis after "overdoing it" during daily recording sessions.

She has been working with Clive Davis, the man who launched Whitney Houston's career, and is expected to meet a September deadline.

"She has been overdoing it. The expectations on her are so great," her dad Joe told the Sunday Mirror. "She's in the studio every day, late into the night. Now her producers have stopped until her voice gets better."

Leona will spend a week with her family in Hackney, East London, while she recovers.
