X Factor winner Leona Lewis has revealed that she is planning to buy a home in Santa Monica.
The 22-year-old singer struggled to cope with being away from the UK when she recorded her debut album in Los Angeles.
However, Leona's attitude has now changed and she is looking forward to promoting the record in the States next year.
"We are promoting the album in the UK, then in America. So I want to buy a place in Santa Monica," Lewis told the Sunday Mirror. "I love being by the beach and the Pacific Ocean.
"When I first moved out there I was really missing my family and my boyfriend. But my dream now would be to live in California in the winter and here in the summer. I'm going to buy a house there first. And maybe one in London later."
